Abstract

Abstract: Originated from China, foxtail millet (Setaria italica Beauv.) and common millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) are staple cereals in Northern China, which are of great importance in dry-land agriculture. Organized by the National Agricultural Technology Extension Center, newly developed foxtail millet and common millet cultivars were subjected to evaluate their grain yield, environmental adaptation and other agricultural characteristics performance in different locations of their corresponding ecological regions from 2001 to 2015, which is named Regional Adaptation Test (RAT for short). The 15 years RAT of foxtail millet and common millet cultivars were carried out on different ecological groups, and there were 8 to 15 testing locations of the same of similar environmental condition in each group, such as Northern China Plain region of summer-sowing foxtail millet, early mature region of Northwest China spring-sowing region and Northeast China spring-sowing region. The well-organized data of the 15 years test is a real exhibition of performance of grain yield and other characters of the newly developed foxtail and common millet cultivars in this period. By exploitation of the data, six papers were published in this issue of Scientia Agricultura Sinica and a brief introduction and comment was made in this paper, so as help readers have a much deeper insight on those papers. The future breeding targets of foxtail and common millet were also discussed in the paper.

Key words: foxtail millet, common millet, grain yield, breeding situation, regional adaptation test
