The study of plant resistance to stress and adversity is one of the hot scientific issues.With the frequent occurrence of extreme weather,millet,as a typical drought-resistant and barren crop,plays an increasingly important role in the adjustment of crop planting structure.This paper,reviewed the research progress of stress-related gene families and gene mining in recent years,and prospected the development prospect of stress-related functional genes in millet,in order to provide reference for the development of stress-related directions in millet,the a-nalysis of resistance mechanism and the breeding of resistant varieties.
