This study investigates the genetic architecture underlying seed longevity and vigor traits in pearl millet (\n                    <jats:italic>Pennisetum glaucum<\/jats:italic>\n                    [L.] R. Br.) through genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The GWAS panel comprising 201 inbred lines representing B and R lines was phenotyped under both control and accelerated aging (AA) conditions for 27 seed longevity and seedling vigor traits and their relative measures. Phenotypic analysis revealed significant changes in seed traits following AA in germination percentages, seedling vigor indices and mean germination times. A 4K mid-density SNP panel was used for genotyping, producing 2,015 high-confidence SNPs after stringent filtering for GWAS. The Bayesian information and linkage disequilibrium iteratively nested keyway (BLINK) and Multi-locus mixed model (MLMM) models identified 413 significant marker-trait associations (MTAs), with 185 MTAs common to both models. A pleiotropic SNP,\n                    <jats:italic>PMSnpB394<\/jats:italic>\n                    on chromosome 2, was linked to 14 seed longevity traits. Key genes associated with these traits include hormone signaling (\n                    <jats:italic>Auxin response factor, DOG1<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), stress response (\n                    <jats:italic>LEA_2, 10 kDa heat shock protein<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), metabolism (\n                    <jats:italic>Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, Beta-galactosidase<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) and seed coat structure (\n                    <jats:italic>Peroxidase, 3-Ketoacyl-CoA synthase<\/jats:italic>\n                    ). These MTAs and candidate genes provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying seed longevity and vigor and serve as promising targets for marker-assisted selection and breeding strategies aimed at developing climate-resilient cultivars in the rainfed ecologies.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpls.2026.1717105","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,31]],"date-time":"2026-03-31T04:13:10Z","timestamp":1774930390000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Pleiotropic SNPs and genes linked to enhanced seed longevity and vigor for climate resilient pearl millet production"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Netyam","family":"Kannababu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Seed Science and Technology Lab, ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandeep","family":"Nanjundappa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genomics and Molecular Breeding Lab, Global Centre of Excellence on Millets (Shree Anna), ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Renuka","family":"Malipatil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genomics and Molecular Breeding Lab, Global Centre of Excellence on Millets (Shree Anna), ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bharathi","family":"Chunduri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genomics and Molecular Breeding Lab, Global Centre of Excellence on Millets (Shree Anna), ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arutla","family":"Srikanth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Seed Science and Technology Lab, ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ronda","family":"Venkateswarlu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biochemistry Lab, ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinu","family":"Jacob","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnology Lab, ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vijayakumar M.","family":"Malathi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biochemistry Lab, ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tara Chellapilla","family":"Satyavathi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genomics and Molecular Breeding Lab, Global Centre of Excellence on Millets (Shree Anna), ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nepolean","family":"Thirunavukkarasu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genomics and Molecular Breeding Lab, Global Centre of Excellence on Millets (Shree Anna), ICAR-Indian Institute of Millets Research","place":["Hyderabad, India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/agronomy11122369","article-title":"Oxidative stress, aging and methods of seed invigoration: An overview and perspectives","volume":"11","author":"Ademola","year":"2021","journal-title":"Agronomy"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5772\/intechopen.70653","volume-title":"Metabolic processes during seed germination","author":"Ali","year":"2017"},{"key":"B3","volume-title":"Principles of Plant Breeding","author":"Allard","year":"1960"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/plants11050598","article-title":"Genetic aspects and molecular causes of seed longevity in plants\u2014A review","volume":"11","author":"Arif","year":"2022","journal-title":"Plants (Basel)"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5772\/61958","article-title":"Stress-induced proteins in recalcitrant seeds during deep dormancy and early germination","volume-title":"Abiotic and Biotic Stress in Plants \u2013 Recent Advances and Future Perspectives","author":"Azarkovich","year":"2016"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"93","DOI":"10.1079\/SSR2004159","article-title":"Active oxygen species and antioxidants in seed biology","volume":"14","author":"Bailly","year":"2004","journal-title":"Seed Sci.
