Foreword

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) is an important staple crop for millions of poor rural households in the semi-arid tropics of Asia and Africa. Owing to its importance for food, feed and fodder, considerable global efforts have gone into improving its productivity through genetic enhancement. ICRISAT has a global mandate for conserving the genetic resources of pearl millet and enhancing its productivity in Asia and Africa. This is done through collaborative research with multiple partners in the national agriculture research systems (NARS), advanced research institutes, private sector, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

Initially, ICRISAT’s focus on pearl millet improvement was in developing open pollinated varieties (OPVs), based on an assumption that OPVs have wider adaptation, and that farmers can use their grain harvest as seed for the next crop, implying its cost effectiveness. Later research, however, showed that hybrids may have adaptations as wide as OPVs and that seed cost is not the most important investment criteria in pearl millet cultivation. The seed rate in pearl millet is just about 3-4 kg/ha, and farmers in India often prefer to purchase new seed every year on account of its cost effectiveness, and better quality than their own saved seeds. Most important of all, hybrids in general have a 20-30% grain yield advantage over OPVs. Further, private seed companies as signifi cant and competent players in pearl millet hybrid development and delivery in India, had little interest in OPVs. Based on the above realities, public sector breeding programs in India have gradually and almost totally shifted to hybrid development. In alignment with the regional priority of the Asia region, pearl millet research at ICRISAT-Patancheru followed a strategy of developing improved breeding lines and potential hybrid parents, leaving the development, testing and release of hybrids to the public sector programs and the private sector. At ICRISAT, these materials are generated and disseminated as international public goods.

ICRISAT-bred male-sterile lines and restorer lines are developed mostly by breeding methods that leave cryptic variability within the lines from which within-line selections can be made with slight modifi cation in plant traits. In view of the increasing awareness of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection, it was considered necessary to characterize ICRISAT-bred parental lines and place them in the public domain to enhance ICRISAT’s ability to protect these materials from any possible infringement, and to allow unhindered access by public organizations globally. A beginning was

made in this direction with the characterization of male-sterile lines using the descriptors developed for the Distinctiveness, Uniformity and Stability (DUS)–test.

During the 1981–2004 period, ICRISAT developed 99 male-sterile lines (A-lines) and their corresponding maintainers (B-lines) from a diverse genetic base and with diverse morphological traits. These lines were designated and disseminated as potential hybrid parents after evaluation for agronomic performance and resistance to diverse pathotypes of downy mildew, in the years they were designated. Although these lines have been developed from diverse genetic backgrounds and with diverse morphological traits, these had not been evaluated for a comprehensive set of morphological traits in common environments.

This document provides detailed characterization of 99 pairs of male-sterile lines (A-lines) and their counterpart maintainer lines (B-lines) for the traits stipulated in the DUS-test guidelines, based on their evaluation in two seasons at ICRISAT-Patancheru. The characterization data showed not only the differences among the A/B pairs, but also the extent to which they could be infl uenced by environmental factors, not to mention a small variability within some of the lines. Such variability among and within the lines provide opportunities for further selection and genetic enhancement; and it has implications in IPR protection as well.

It is my hope that this publication will be useful to all pearl millet researchers and seed producers worldwide.

Introduction Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L) R. Br.) is a major warm-season cereal grown on 26 million ha in the arid and semi-arid tropical (SAT) regions of Asia (>10 million ha) and Africa (15-16 million ha), with India being the largest producer (> 9 million ha) of this crop in the world. It is a highly cross-pollinated crop with an outcrossing rate of more than 85%. The protogynous fl owering and wind-borne pollination favor cross-pollination, making open-pollinated varieties (OPVs) as the natural cultivar state of this crop. OPVs, however, are not amenable to achieving as much heterozygosity and the consequent heterosis as it is possible in single-cross hybrids. Furthermore, OPVs are highly heterogeneous and hence morphologically more variable than single-cross hybrids. It has been observed that single-cross hybrids generally give 20-30% more grain yield than OPVs (Rai et al 2006). Based on these considerations, and with the availability of a commercially exploitable cytoplasmic-nuclear male sterility (CMS), the National Agricultural Research System (NARS) in India took the fi rst signifi cant step in the world to embark on grain hybrid development. With the rapid growth of a vibrant seed industry, pearl millet research in India, both in the private and the public sector, is now almost all directed towards hybrid breeding. In alignment with the regional priority in Asia region, ICRISAT’s pearl millet improvement research at Patancheru followed a strategy of developing improved breeding lines and potential hybrid parents, leaving the development, testing and release of hybrids to the NARS and the private sector.

There has been extensive use of ICRISAT-bred hybrid parents, especially seed parents (male-sterile lines), by both NARS and the private sector. For instance, 60-70% of the hybrids often included in the All India Trials and released by both NARS and the private sector are based on ICRISAT-bred seed parents. In view of the increasing awareness of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection, a need has been felt to characterize ICRISAT-bred parental lines and place them in public domain as international public goods. This would enhance ICRISAT’s ability to protect these materials from any possible infringement, and allow unhindered access by public organizations globally. During the 1981-2004, ICRISAT developed 99 male-sterile lines (A-lines) and their counterpart maintainers (B-lines). These lines were designated and disseminated as potential hybrid parents after evaluation for agronomic performance and resistance to downy mildew (Sclerospora graminicola (Sacc.) Schroet.), the most dreaded disease of pearl millet in India. These evaluations, however, were done in the years the lines were developed and designated. Although these lines have been developed

from diverse genetic backgrounds and with diverse morphological traits, these had not been evaluated for a comprehensive set of morphological traits in common environments. The objective of the present study was to characterize all the 99 pairs of A- and B-lines using 26 morphological traits developed as DUS (Distinctness, Uniformity and Stability) descriptors as shown in Annexure I (AICPMIP, 2006).

Materials and MethodsPlant material and fi eld trials

In pearl millet improvement program at ICRISAT, the fi rst male sterile was developed in 1981 and was designated as 81A. Thereafter and till 1986, the lines were designated with a 3- digit number, the fi rst two digits indicating the year. Since 1988, 5-digit system was followed, where the fi rst two digits refer to the year in which they are designated and made available for use, followed by three digits (the same number in triplicate) for specifi c A/B pairs. For example, ICMA/B 97333 refers to the third A/B pair developed and designated in 1997 and ICMA/B 06555 refers to the fi fth A/B pair developed and designated in 2006 (Annexure II). The 99 A-lines in three diverse cytoplasmic backgrounds (63 A1, 35 A4 and 1Ag), and their counterpart B-lines were planted in a split-plot design, with 99 genotypes as main plots and two cytoplasms (fertile vs sterile) as sub-plots, in two replications during the 2005 postrainy (dry) season (February - May) and rainy season (July - October) at ICRISAT, Patancheru (18º N lat; 78º E long.). During the postrainy season, there was a total rainfall of 121 mm with weekly mean maximum temperatures ranging between 27 and 37°C, weekly mean minimum temperatures ranging between 15 and 23°C and relative humidity above 60% (Figure 1). During the rainy season, there was a total of 830 mm rainfall with the weekly mean maximum temperatures ranging between 27 and 32°C, weekly mean minimum temperatures ranging between 20 and 23°C and relative humidity >92% (Figure 2).

Each line was machine-planted in single row of 4 m with 60 cm spacing between the rows in postrainy season and 75 cm in the rainy season, and 15 cm spacing between the plants in both seasons. The experiment was conducted in Alfi sols with applied fertilizer levels of 80 kg ha-1 N (18% basal and rest as top dressing), and 46 kg ha-1 P (basal dose) with seven irrigations during the postrainy season and one irrigation during the rainy season. The standard cultural and agronomic practices were followed that included thinning and manual weeding at 15 days after sowing.

Data collection and analysis

The observations on nine quantitative traits were taken on 10 random plants in each plot for plant height (cm), panicle length (cm), panicle diameter (cm), number of productive tillers plant-1, number of nodes plant-1, leaf sheath length (cm), leaf blade length (cm), leaf blade width (cm) and 1000-grain weight (g). Time to 50% fl ower was recorded on plot basis when the main panicles of 50% of the plants in the plots had full stigma emergence. Data were also taken on 16 other traits. These included seedling color, panicle exsertion, panicle tip sterility, node pubescence, node pigmentation, internode pigmentation, leaf sheath pubescence, anther color, glume pigmentation, presence/absence of bristles in panicle, and bristle color for which data were recorded on the basis of visual assessment of individual

The mean plot values of the quantitative traits measured were subjected to analysis of variance for each season as well across the two seasons following split-plot design and using Genstat 10.1 software.

Results and Discussion

Germplasm baseIn pearl millet improvement program at ICRISAT, hybrid parental lines (A/B pairs) are developed with considerable morphological diversity and then designated based on agronomic performance and resistance to at least two downy mildew (DM) pathotypes. Designated B-lines are rigorously screened often against fi ve diverse DM pathotypes under high disease pressure in the green house seedling inoculation test (80-90 % disease incidence in susceptible checks) and B-lines with <10% disease incidence are classifi ed as resistant. The parentage of 99 designated seed parental lines is provided in annexure II, which shows the utilization of a wide range of germplasm and improved lines in developing these lines. For instance, three B-lines were directly selected from the germplasm accessions, and 9 were selected directly from composites (Table 1). In addition, 21B-lines were derived from crosses that involved germplasm in their parentage and 19 lines had composites in their parentage. Thus, there were 52 seed parental lines that had some components of germplasm and /or composite in their parentage, indicating apparently substantial usage of germplasm/composites in the development of these seed parental lines. The remaining 47 seed parental lines were derived from crosses between elite inbred lines. Like any targeted breeding program, where some elite lines occur more frequently in the crosses, in this program also some lines were involved in

more crosses than others in the development of designated B-lines. For instance, 843B, known for its early maturity, large seed size, dwarf height, good tillering and good combining ability, was involved as the fi rst cycle or second cycle parent in 47 B-lines, followed by 81B in 16 B-lines and ICMB 89111 in 15 B-lines. ICMB 89111 itself involves 843B as one of the parents in its parentage indicating that 843 B is directly or in directly involved in 63% of the designated B–lines developed at ICRISAT, Patancheru, India.

Quantitative traitsThe overall mean for ten quantitative characters over both the seasons for all the 99 A/B pairs revealed that characters like plant height, leaf and panicle-related characters had increased expression in the rainy season than in the postrainy (dry) season. The reverse was true for characters like days to fl owering, number of productive tillers plant-1 and 1000-grain weight. A- and B-lines are expected to be genetically similar as they differ only for cytoplasm. However, pooled analysis of variance for 10 quantitative traits revealed that A- and B-lines had signifi cant differences between them for the expression of all the quantitative characters under study (Table 2). However, these differences were of small magnitude to have any practical signifi cance. For instance, A- lines, on the average, fl owered in 48 days, one day earlier than the average number of days taken by B-lines. Similarly, B-lines, on an average were only 0.7 cm taller in plant height and had 0.2 cm longer panicles than A-lines. Thus, the magnitude of the differences mentioned above can increase or decrease with the changes in the environment as the effect of the environment and its interaction with the cytoplasm was highly signifi cant.

The individual A/B pairs were further studied season-wise for the above traits to examine the contribution of cytoplasm x environment interaction (Annexure III). It was found that three A-lines in the rainy season and ten A-lines in the postrainy season fl owered signifi cantly earlier (3-6 days) than their counterpart B-lines. Amongst these lines, only ICMA 02777 was earlier than its B-line in both the seasons, while other A-lines showed earliness in comparison to their counterpart B-lines in one season only. Similarly, for plant height, in 6 A/B pairs in the rainy season and 4 pairs in the postrainy season, there were signifi cant differences between the A-and B-lines ranging from 9 to 12 cm. Three A-lines out of these 6 pairs in rainy season and two A-lines in postrainy season were shorter than their corresponding B-lines. Out of these, ICMA 02111 was found to be the only A- line which was shorter than its counterpart B- line in both the seasons. For panicle diameter, three

pairs in the rainy season and 22 A/B pairs in the postrainy season showed signifi cant differences in the range of 1.6 – 4.2 cm. No A/B pair was found to follow the same trend of response in both the seasons for panicle diameter. One A-line out of these 3 in rainy and only two A-lines out of these 22 pairs in postrainy season had thicker panicles than their corresponding B-lines. Similar trend of signifi cant differences were observed for 5 (A/B) pairs in the rainy season (in the range of 1.6- 2.4 g) and for 8 pairs in the postrainy season (in the range of 1.1- 1.8g) for 1000- grain weight. No line was found to follow same trend of response in both the seasons for 1000- grain weight. Thus, although some A/B pairs showed signifi cant differences between them for different characters in different seasons, this behavior was not found consistent across the seasons, indicating the effect of environment and its interactions with the cytoplasm. Such differences could also arise due to incomplete transfer of the entire genome of B-lines into A-lines as the A/B pairs were not developed by plant x plant crossing and pedigree breeding. Rather bulk pollen collected normally from 4-8 plants of the B-line was crossed onto 3-4 plants of the corresponding backcross progenies and both backcross progenies and B-lines were harvested as bulks for generation advance. If the latter is true, then prolonged backcrossing using plant x plant crossing approach might dissipate such differences. Assuming it to be so, we shall henceforth discuss the variability among B-lines in these 99 A/B pairs.

The effect of season on various traits in B-lines was also found to be signifi cant (Annexure III). These include leaf blade length (45.3 cm in rainy; 40.2 cm in postrainy), panicle diameter (2.7cm in rainy; 2.5 cm in postrainy), plant height (97.4 cm in rainy; 94.2 cm in postrainy), 1000- grain weight (9.7 g in rainy; 10.5 g in postrainy), and days to 50% fl ower (47 days in rainy and; 50 days in postrainy). The extent of variation attributable to seasonal effect on these lines may vary depending on the environments.

The utilization of diverse breeding materials in the development of these designated B-lines has resulted into a wide range of variability (Table 3). For instance, plant height ranged from 61 to 136 cm, 50 % fl owering from 41 to 60 days, panicle length from 12 to 35 cm and panicle diameter from 2 to 3.7 cm in these B-lines. There were only 5 genotypes, which had more than 4 tillers while most of the remaining had 2-3 productive tillers. Thus, immense variability shown among these designated B-lines provides ample opportunity to breed hybrids for specifi c requirements of different agro-climatic zones in pearl millet. Some of the lines used more widely in commercial seed production provide reference lines for specifi c

traits. For instance, 8 B-lines fl owered in 42-45 days and were in the same maturity group as the earliest-fl owering commercial seed parent 843B (42 days). This B-line is also popular for its large seed size. There were 21 designated B-lines that had comparable or higher 1000-grain weight than 843B (11.2g). In fact, 7 B-lines had more than 12g of 1000-grain weight. Another commercial seed parent 81B line is popular for its dwarf height and long panicles. There were 17 B-lines that were in the same height group as 81B (76cm), and 10 B-lines were in the same panicle length group as 81B (22 cm). ICMB 89111 is the highest-tillering line among the commercial seed parents. There were 4 B-lines that had tillering ability comparable to ICMB 89111 (4 tillers plant-1). One B-line, ICMB 02222 recorded even higher tillering than of ICMB 89111. 863B had the thickest panicles among the commercial seed parents. There were 17 designated B-lines that had panicle diameter comparable to or greater than 863B (3.1 cm).

Qualitative and quasi- qualitative traitsFrequency distribution of the 99 A/B pairs for 16 qualitative and quasi- qualitative characters revealed considerable variation for most of the traits except for traits like plant growth habit, presence of bristles in the panicle, bristle color, anthocyanin pigmentation on glumes and node, and leaf sheath pubescence ( Annexure III ) . Majority of the lines (90%) were erect in their growth habit. Only 8 lines had pubescent node and leaf sheath. Green color was most dominant for node (74%) and internode (87%) pigmentation, purple color being the next major trait. Majority of the lines had grey colored seeds (68%) followed by deep grey (29%) and cream colored (3%) seeds. Globular seed shape (77%) was most dominant, followed by obovate (19%) and only 4% lines had hexagonal seed shape. About 68% of the lines had partial panicle exsertion and 12% of the lines had variable exsertion. Semi-compact panicles were most common (51%), followed by lines that showed variable expression within a line for compact to semi-compact panicles (26%). Only 6 lines had compact panicles.

Differences were observed between A- and B-lines in the expression of some traits such as seedling anthocyanin pigmentation and panicle density. Ten A/B pairs showed differences in expression for anthocyanin pigmentation of seedlings. For instance, ICMA 94444 had pigmented seedlings and ICMB 94444 had non-pigmented seedlings across both the seasons. Similarly, 4 A/B pairs had differences in the expression for panicle density. For instance, ICMA 03999 had loose panicles and ICMB 03999 had semi-compact panicles in postrainy season. These differences between A- and B-lines can

Page 19: ce Morphological Characteristics of ICRISAT-bred Pearl ...oar.icrisat.org/1330/1/157_2009_Morphological...Citation: Rai KN, Gupta SK, Bhattacharjee Ranjana, Kulkarni VN, Singh AK and

11

apparently be attributed to the effect of cytoplasm. The differences among the A/B pairs also varied across the two seasons for some of the traits. For pigmentation of seedlings, 9 A-lines and 7 B-lines had different predominant class in different seasons. Six of these A- and B-lines belonged to same A/B pairs. For instance, ICMA 91777 and ICMB 91777 had predominantly non-pigmented seedlings in the rainy season but pigmented seedlings in the postrainy season. Similarly, three A/B pairs showed differences in expression for node pubescence. For instance, both ICMA 96222 and ICMB 96222 had pubescent nodes during the rainy season and non-pubescent nodes during the postrainy season. A similar trend was observed for some of the quasi-qualitative traits like panicle exsertion and panicle density also. For panicle density, 40 A and 40 B-lines of the same A/B pairs showed difference in expression across seasons. For instance, 843A and 843B had loose panicles during the rainy season and semi-compact panicles during the postrainy season. Similarly, 19 A- and 19 B-lines of the same A/B pairs showed differential expression for panicle exsertion. For instance, 863A and 863B had partial exsertion during the rainy season and complete exsertion during the postrainy season. The differences in the expression of traits in different seasons suggest that there is substantial effect of environment on these traits in some genetic backgrounds. Therefore, if more number of environments (seasons or locations) were included in this study, there would be every possibility of detecting differences in the expression of other qualitative and quasi-qualitative traits which otherwise might not be possible with only two seasons and one location as used in this study.

Variability within the B-lines was observed even across the two replications for some traits like anthocyanin pigmentation of seedlings, panicle exsertion and panicle density. If alternate phenotype for a particular trait was present in a replication, it was indicated with a superscript “a” on its code (Annexure III). For anthocyanin pigmentation of seedlings, alternate phenotypes were present in 34 B-lines, either across both the seasons or in a single season. For instance, alternate phenotype for seedlings pigmentation color was present in 81B in both the seasons while ICMA 03111 had such alternate phenotypes in rainy season only. Similarly, for panicle exsertion, alternate phenotypes were present in 34 B-lines. For instance, ICMB 97555 had complete exsertion as predominant class, though some plants with partial exsertion were also present in both the seasons. Following the same trend, 10 B-lines had alternate phenotypes other than the predominant class for panicle density across both the seasons or in a single season .For instance, ICMB 92444 had loose panicles but alternate phenotypes

for panicle density were also present in both the seasons. This within-line variability seems to be due to method of pollination, where bulk pollen from plants of recurrent parent (there may be some out- crossed plant present in the recurrent parent) is taken during backcrossing program during the development of seed parental lines. It is possible that other B-lines which have not shown such within-line variability in this study, might show it if tested with larger sample size, and perhaps in different environments. In the present study, only 20-30 plants per replication per season were evaluated for these qualitative or quasi- qualitative characters, so it may (or may not) be possible to fi nd/detect plants having low frequency of an alternate phenotype in comparison to the predominant class of a particular trait. For instance, if the frequency of a phenotype is 0.5%, then there is a need to study at least 200 plants per replication to detect at lease one plant that has particular alternate phenotype. Therefore, if characterization of these seed parental lines are carried out with large number of plants (200-300 plants per replication), it may be possible to detect a few plants that expresses the alternate phenotype of these qualitative (or quasi-qualitative) traits, which otherwise should not be construed as a new phenotype or plant type at any given time.
