in order to locate qtls controlling some agronomic traits associated to drought stress and to determine their relationships with grain yield, an experiment was conducted at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol in 2011. the experiment was arranged in two complete block designs with 3 replications. 72 barley double haploid lines including their parents (steptoe×morex) we...

In barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), chiasmata (the physical sites of genetic crossovers) are skewed towards the distal ends of chromosomes, effectively consigning a large proportion of genes to recombination coldspots. This has the effect of limiting potential genetic variability, and of reducing the efficiency of map-based cloning and breeding approaches for this crop. Shifting the sites of recomb...

Transcript abundance from cRNA hybridizations to Affymetrix microarrays can be used for simultaneous marker development and genome-wide gene expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis of crops. We have previously shown that it is easily possible to use Affymetrix expression arrays to profile individuals from a segregating population to accurately identify robust polymorphic molecular g...

in order to map qtls controlling phonological traits of barley under normal and drought stress conditions, an experiment was conducted by 72 doubled-haploid lines and their two parents (steptoe and morex), at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol, in 2011. the experiment was arranged in completely randomized block designs with three replications under normal irrigation ...

in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural and natural resource station of sistan. seventy tow double haploid lines of barley with their parents (steptoe and morex) were examined using two 9×9 simple lattice (stress and non-stress), with two replications. each plot consisted of six rows that were 3m in length a...
