AB  - INTRODUCTION: Pearl millet is a staple cereal grown in the harshest environments 
      of arid and semi-arid regions of Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. It is the primary 
      source of calories for millions of people in these regions because it has better 
      adaptation to harsh environmental conditions and better nutritional traits than 
      many other cereals. By screening the pearl millet inbred germplasm association 
      panel (PMiGAP), we earlier reported the best genotypes with the highest 
      concentration of slowly digestible and resistant starch in their grains. METHODS: 
      In the current study, we tested these 20 top-performing pearl millet hybrids, 
      identified based on starch data, in a randomised block design with three 
      replications at five locations in West Africa, viz. Sadore and Konni (Niger), 
      Bambey (Senegal), Kano (Nigeria), and Bawku (Ghana). Phenotypic variability was 
      assessed for agronomic traits and mineral traits (Fe and Zn). RESULTS AND 
      DISCUSSION: Analysis of variance demonstrated significant genotypic, 
      environmental, and GEI effects among five testing environments for agronomic 
      traits (days to 50% flowering, panicle length, and grain yield), starch traits 
      (rapidly digestible starch, slowly digestible starch, resistant starch, and total 
      starch), and mineral trait (iron and zinc). Starch traits, such as rapidly 
      digestible starch (RDS) and slowly digestible starch (SDS), showed nonsignificant 
      genotypic and environmental interactions but high heritability, indicating the 
      lower environmental influence on these traits in the genotype x testing 
      environments. Genotype stability and mean performance across all the traits were 
      estimated by calculating the multi-trait stability index (MTSI), which showed 
      that genotypes G3 (ICMX207070), G8 (ICMX207160), and G13 (ICMX207184) were the 
      best performing and most stable among the five test environments.
