This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is the fourth grain crop both in area and production in the world after maize, wheat and rice. In Ethiopia, barley is an important cereal crop that is mainly grown by subsistence farmers. Even though there is a potential to grow malting barley, Ethiopian breweries import large amount of malting barley abroad. This research is initiated to differentiate malting barley genotypes in their yield, malting quality and N-use efficiency so that poor Ethiopian farmers can grow the best genotype and sell their crop to the breweries. The genetic and environmental factors can cause a different level of variation of the yield and quality parameters of malting barley. High yielding nitrogen efficient crop genotypes may increase production, reduce costs and risk, and minimize the potential negative effects of N on the environment. Therefore, this experiment will be an input for malting barley study. In this research data were collected from yield and yield contributing traits, quality traits and N-use efficiency traits. Results obtained from each trait were analyzed, discussed and related with other researcher's findings in this crop.

Download or read book The Barley Genome written by Nils Stein and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-18 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an overview of the state-of-the-art in barley genome analysis, covering all aspects of sequencing the genome and translating this important information into new knowledge in basic and applied crop plant biology and new tools for research and crop improvement. Unlimited access to a high-quality reference sequence is removing one of the major constraints in basic and applied research. This book summarizes the advanced knowledge of the composition of the barley genome, its genes and the much larger non-coding part of the genome, and how this information facilitates studying the specific characteristics of barley. One of the oldest domesticated crops, barley is the small grain cereal species that is best adapted to the highest altitudes and latitudes, and it exhibits the greatest tolerance to most abiotic stresses. With comprehensive access to the genome sequence, barley’s importance as a genetic model in comparative studies on crop species like wheat, rye, oats and even rice is likely to increase.

Download or read book Diversity in Barley Hordeum vulgare written by R. von Bothmer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-07-03 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic diversity is one of the main resources sustaining human life. Food security largely depends on the availability and utilization of this diversity, which is of strategic importance for countries and companies. Conservation and utilization of biodiversity is thus currently an urgent area of global debate and concern. Barley is a major crop in the world used for food, feed and malt, and with a wide religious and ethnic importance. The crop was domesticated in Neolithic time in SW Asia and spread rapidly under cultivation to new areas. Nowadays it is one of the most widespread and widely adapted crops grown under contrasting edaphic conditions. Adaptations to new environments, different agricultural practices and selection for different uses have further added to the complex diversity pattern. Is it at all possible to give a complete picture of the diversity in a crop or wild species? Are we, by adding new technologies, only revealing parts of the diversity? Do different sets of data show similar or conflicting pictures of genetic diversity? Will the large genome size reduce the role of barley as a model organism in these current sequencing days? Or, are there still major reasons to continue to work with this beautiful crop? The aim of this book is to cover the complex issue of diversification in time and space in a single crop: barley. Leading scientists from various fields describe the entire variation pattern in different sets of characters and an attempt is made for a synthesis to a holistic picture. The book proposes ways to use the achievements of diversity studies in future research and breeding programmes.

Download or read book Identifying Phenotypic Traits Critical for Breeding Winter Malting Barley Adapted to Ohio and the Genomic Regions Affecting Those Traits written by Benjamin Matthew Eggers and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A goal of The Ohio State University Hordeum vulgare L. breeding program is to develop winter-hardy, two-row varieties suitable for malting. Winter-hardiness and malting quality are complex traits, having multiple independent contributing components. It is critical that the program identify genotypes possessing the best agronomic and malting quality traits to guarantee Ohio barley farmers are profitable. To make better informed decisions regarding variety selection for cultivation under Ohio conditions and guide parental choice for crossing, I conducted a genome wide association study (GWAS). GWAS analyzes phenotypic data and genotypic data to test for associations between the markers and desirable traits. The GWAS was conducted using 350 barley genotypes that encompassed key germplasm contributing to the breeding program. The germplasm set was genotyped and phenotyped for agronomic and malting quality traits. Genotyping was performed using multiplexed sequencing using markers based off the barley 9k chip in collaboration with the USDA Western Regional Small Grains Genotyping Lab. Phenotypic data was collected during the 2019-2020 growing season at Wooster, North Central, and Western research branches. I identified at least one QTL associated with 27 of the 31 traits measured and identified 78 QTLs in total. Identified QTLs were all novel to Ohio malting barley and some match genomic regions previously recorded in other environments. The significant markers can be used in marker assisted selection in future breeding efforts. The phenotypic correlations found will allow for more accurate characterization of new genetic material.
