Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity of wild and cultivated pearl millet accessions (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.) in Niger assessed by microsatellite markers

TL;DR: A significantly lower number of alleles and lower gene diversity in cultivated pearl millet accessions than in wild accessions is shown, which contrasts with a previous study using iso-enzyme markers showing similar genetic diversity between cultivated and wild pearl Millet populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Niger-wide assessment of in situ sorghum genetic diversity with microsatellite markers.

TL;DR: The geographical situation of Niger, where typical western African, central African and eastern Sahelian African sorghum races converge, explained the high observed genetic diversity and was responsible for the interactions among the ethnic, geographical and botanical structure revealed in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic structure and relationships within and between cultivated and wild sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) in Kenya as revealed by microsatellite markers

TL;DR: In both cultivated and wild sorghum, genetic diversity was found to be structured more along geographical level than agro-climatic level, which indicated that gene flow and genetic drift contributed to shaping the contemporary genetic structure in the two congeners.
