20 hulless barley lines were assessed by grain yield and other agronomic traits in 2006 and 2007 in the research station of the university of tabriz, iran. the experiments in each year were carried out as randomized complete block design with four replications. the genotypes were significantly different for most of the studied traits. this indicated the existence of large genetic variation in t...

salt tolerance in crops is multigenic in nature and quantitatively inherited, and therefore controlled by minorgenes. to study the diversity of qtls conferring salt tolerance in barley, four barley mapping populations including l94 × vada (l × v, 103 rils), oregon wolf barley (owb) (dom × rec, 94 dhs), susptrit × vada (su × v, 152 lines), and susptrit × cebada capa (su × cc, 113 lines) were tes...

in order to compare photosynthetic features of triticale, bread wheat, and barley under water deficit conditions, this experiment was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, and a new variety of barley were compared under well watered (ψsoil= -3 bars) and soil water deficit (ψsoil= -12 bars) conditions in a randomized compl...

A study on response of 29 barley genotypes resistant to Bipolaris leaf blight (Bipolaris sorokiniana) was conducted to investigate the relationship of the components of resistance of 29 barley genotypes. Data on five components of resistance viz., infection frequency (number of lesions per plant), lesion size (mm), percent leaf area affected by lesion, percent necrotic area on leaf, and disease...

this study was performed for determine stability of the 18 promising barley lines and two check lines nosrat and mb-86-5 in six parts of the temperate zone including karaj, isfahan, birjand, varamin, zarghan and nishapur based on randomized complete block design)rcbd( with three replications and in two cropping seasons (2009-2011). following combined analysis, grain yield stability assessment w...

Manganese (Mn) deficiency is an important plant nutritional disorder in many parts of the world. Barley (Hordeum vulgare) genotypes differ considerably in their ability to grow in soils with low Mn(2+) availability. Differential genotypic Mn efficiency can be attributed to differences in Mn(2+) uptake kinetics in the low nanomolar concentration range. However, the molecular basis for these diff...

The ability to access alleles from unadapted germplasm collections is a long-standing problem for geneticists and breeders. Here we developed, characterized, and demonstrated the utility of a wild barley advanced backcross-nested association mapping (AB-NAM) population. We developed this population by backcrossing 25 wild barley accessions to the six-rowed malting barley cultivar Rasmusson. The...
