Minor and pseudo-cereals, which can grow with lower input and often produce specific nutrients compared to major cereal crops, are attracting worldwide attention. Since these crops generally have a large genetic diversity in a breeding population, rapid genetic improvement can be possible by the application of genomics-assisted breeding methods. In this review, we discuss studies related to biparental quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, genome-wide association study, and genomic selection for minor and pseudo-cereals. Especially, we focus on the current progress in a pseudo-cereal, buckwheat. Prospects for the practical utilization of genomics-assisted breeding in minor and pseudo-cereals are discussed including the issues to overcome especially for these crops.
