Both are resistant to Sclerospora graminicola. In yield trials at Hissar, Haryana, India, hybrids on ICMA3 outyielded BJ104, and in one trial an ICMA3 hybrid outyielded the best MBH110 plot. ICMA3 carries the d2 dwarfing gene and is medium early (49 days to flowering). The grain of both lines is bold, with a 1000-grain weight of 12 g. date: 1985 publisher: International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics pages: 4 isbn: 9290661003 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Pearl+Millet+Male-Sterile+Line+ICMA+3+and+its+Maintainer+Line+ICMB+3&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts related_url_type: author citation: ICRISAT, - (1985) Pearl Millet Male-Sterile Line ICMA 3 and its Maintainer Line ICMB 3.Plant Material Description no.6.
