Microsatellite Variation and Grain Yield Performance of Finger Millet (Eleusine Coracana Subsp. Coracana) Genotypes Evaluated Under Moisture Stress Environment

Key Points

• Grain yield performance is influenced by microsatellite variation among different finger millet genotypes, indicating genetic potential.
• Higher resilience to moisture stress is seen in specific genotypes, particularly those with favorable microsatellite profiles.
• Assessment of several genotypes highlights significant variation in yield under controlled moisture stress conditions.
• The findings may inform breeding strategies aimed at enhancing drought tolerance in finger millet crops.
