The weed seed bank of a long-term tillage study in subarctic Alaska was studied at the end of 10 years of continuous spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Tillage treatments were: no-till, disked once (spring), disked twice (spring and fall), and chisel plow (fall). Soil cores were obtained from each tillage treatment and seeds were manually separated from soil after washing through sieves. Tilla...

Anaerobically treated seedlings of Oryza sativa L. var arborio accumulated in their shoots more succinate than lactate and cell sap became alkaline. Conversely, in Triticum aestivum L. var MEK 86 lactate accumulation was far higher than that of succinate and cell sap was acidified. Anoxia clearly induced proton consumption in both species as an important means to prevent or counteract acidosis....

Barley has been cultivated for more than 10,000 years. Barley improvement studies always have the privilege of the breeders and scientists. This review is expected to provide a resource for researchers interested in barley improvement research in terms of mutation breeding, tissue culture, gene transfers, gene editing, molecular markers, transposons, epigenetic, genomic studies and system biolo...

In order to evaluation of drought resistant indices in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), 10 barley genotypes evaluated in Completely Randomized Design with three Replications in two conditions, (under drought stress and in normal with irrigation in planting, flowering and grain filling stages) in Islamic Azad University, Miyaneh Branch Research Farm in 2012. Drought tolerant indices basis of yield p...

Bu çalışmada fiğ ( Vicia sativa L.), nohut Cicer arietinum L.) ve arpa Hordeum vulgare gelişimi üzerine etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla, bazı Şanlıurfa Baraj Göllerinde yoğun olarak bulunan Microcystis viridis Aphanizomenon gracile’ in karışık kültürünün farklı dozlarının etkisi araştırılmıştır. Siyanobakteri karışımından hazırlanan dozlar, topraklara püskürtülerek uygulanmıştır. Kök uzunluğu ba...

An antibody specific for ribulose 1,5-diphosphate carboxylase was used to isolate the enzyme from greening barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) leaves. The increase in enzymatic activity during greening was due to de novo synthesis of the enzyme. Increases in enzymatic activity were accompanied by corresponding increases in enzyme protein and by incorporation of radioactive leucine, all of which were in...

The addition of gibberellic acid to isolated aleurone layers of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) causes the production and secretion of four alpha-amylases. Two of these are stable at pH 3.7 and are not inactivated by ethylenediaminetetraacetate. The other two represent the classical barley alpha-amylases; i.e., they are inactivated at pH 3.7 and by reagents which from complexes with divalent metal ...

The 9-kDa thylakoid polypeptide which in vivo carries the iron-sulfur centers A and B of photosystem I was isolated from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and the complete amino acid sequence determined. The polypeptide shows a very high degree of homology with the corresponding polypeptides in other plant species. The polypeptide is not post-translationally processed except for the removal of the N-...
