Drought stress is a major constraint on crop development, potentially causing huge yield losses and threatening global food security. Improving Crop's stress tolerance is usually associated with a yield penalty. One way to balance yield and stress tolerance is modification specific gene by emerging precision genome editing technology.

- - A genome-wide association study identified 155 QTL related to trace element concentrations in foxtail millet, revealing a candidate gene tied to nickel, cobalt, and chromium levels.
- - The study found significant differences in trace element concentrations (Ba, Co, Ni, Sr, and Zn) between two foxtail millet subpopulations, indicating a genetic basis for these variations.
- - Haplotype analysis revealed that the SETIT_036676mg gene enhances nickel accumulation, highlighting its potential for improving the nutritional content of foxtail millet through genetic research.
Drought is a major limiting factor affecting grain production. Drought-tolerant crop varieties are required to ensure future grain production. Here, 5597 DEGs were identified using transcriptome data before and after drought stress in foxtail millet () hybrid and its parents.
