Abstract: A male sterile experimental material was obtained from Ninghuang A-the dominant genie male-sterile material in 1987. The male part of the new material cannot reproduce under condition of long sunshine (about 14.5 h/d), whereas it can do, if the sunshine is short (about 11.2 h/d). The photoperiod-sensitive and dominant genie male-sterile material of millet has not been reported both at home and abroad. Discovery of this material will open a new way of utilizing the dominant genie male-sterile material of millet.

Key words: Foxtail millet, Photoperiod-sensitive and dominant genie male sterility, Sunshine, Fertility transversion
