Principles and prospects
Article
Selection for malting quality in breeding programs by micromalting and micromashing is time-consuming, and resource-intensive. More efficient and feasible approaches for identifying genotypes with good malting...
Chapter
Genotype by environment interaction (GE) is differential genotypic expression across environments. This chapter summarizes the implications for breeding of the reduction in association between phenotypic and g...
Article
Seed dormancy is a relatively complex trait in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Several dormancy loci were identified previously by quantitative trait locus analysis. Three reciprocal crosses were made in the present...
Article
Pretreatment with increasing concentrations of mannitol, from 0.3 to 0.7 M, was used to induce stress in cultured anthers of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Three cultivars with varying degrees of androgenetic abili...
Article
To investigate the phylogenetic origin of Spanish two-rowed barleys, we studied 44 accessions of old land-races both morphologically and biochemically to ascertain their similarity with 51 entries of old culti...
Article
Seven near-isogenic barley lines, differing for three independent mutant genes, were grown in 15 environments in Spain. Genotype x environment interaction (G x E) for grain yield was examined with the Additive...
Book
Chapter
This chapter has two objectives: first, to discuss implications of genotype by environment interaction (G×E) for breeding and second, to present major statistical models for assessing genotypic adaptation. We ...
Article
Three mutants induced in the two-rowed barley variety Beka and their three binary recombinants have been used in an attempt to define an ideotype suitable for Mediterranean agroclimatic conditions. Physiologic...
