The latest issue of Crop Science features a special section on the International Year of Millets. The CFP for this opened in Dec. 2022 and closed at the end of March this year (we mentioned it here in Feb. 2024). The special section includes 12 research articles on sorghum, pearl millet, proso millet, and finger millet, plus one on on production and cultivation dynamics of millets in India. Some of the articles, but not all, are tagged as open access. Thank you to David Brenner for forwarding this.

It is an opportunity to emphasize the uniqueness of millets grown in arid and drier semi-arid regions with low levels of inputs and presenting high resilience to the adverse effects of climate. In this issue we feature articles focused on a range of millet types and research areas including crop improvement and breeding, phenotyping, envirotyping, crop physiology, management, crop modeling, nutritional quality, and grain composition.
