  abstract = {{P}earl millet [{C}enchrus americanus ({L}.) {M}orrone] is a staple food for more than 90 million farmers in arid and semi-arid regions of sub-{S}aharan {A}frica, {I}ndia and {S}outh {A}sia. {W}e report the similar to 1.79 {G}b draft whole genome sequence of reference genotype {T}ift 23{D}(2){B}(1)-{P}1-{P}5, which contains an estimated 38,579 genes. {W}e highlight the substantial enrichment for wax biosynthesis genes, which may contribute to heat and drought tolerance in this crop. {W}e resequenced and analyzed 994 pearl millet lines, enabling insights into population structure, genetic diversity and domestication. {W}e use these resequencing data to establish marker trait associations for genomic selection, to define heterotic pools, and to predict hybrid performance. {W}e believe that these resources should empower researchers and breeders to improve this important staple crop.},
