Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum), artwork
Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum). Watercolour artwork illustrating stages of growth of proso millet. The stem at left is topped by spikelets of flowers, arranged on a raceme. The stem at right shows the development of grains. It is topped by ripening fruits, each containing one seed. Millet has been used as a food for both man and domestic animals since the Stone Age. It is an important crop in the tropics and warm temperate regions because it tolerates drought and grows well in poor soil. It takes only two to three months to produce its carbohydrate rich seed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour artwork showcases the stages of growth of Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum), a staple crop that has been cultivated since ancient times. The intricate illustration depicts the various phases of development, highlighting both the botanical and agricultural aspects of this versatile grain. On the left side, we see a stem adorned with spikelets of delicate flowers arranged on a raceme. This represents the early stage of growth when the plant begins to bloom, showcasing its natural beauty. Moving towards the right side, we witness the progression as grains start to form. The stem is now topped by ripening fruits, each containing a single seed – an essential characteristic for harvesting. Proso millet's significance in agriculture becomes evident through its ability to thrive in challenging conditions such as drought and poor soil quality. Its rapid growth cycle allows farmers to obtain carbohydrate-rich seeds within just two to three months. This stunning artwork not only captures nature's intricate process but also serves as a visual study tool for botany enthusiasts and researchers alike. By exploring different elements like leaves, roots, ears, stems, spikes, and grains at various stages of development, it provides valuable insights into this vital cereal crop. Science Photo Library presents this print as part of their extensive collection dedicated to biological studies and botanical illustrations. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistry and scientific knowledge while celebrating one of humanity's oldest food sources – Proso millet.
