This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the characters studied, harvest index, number of kernels per spike, biomass yield, and 1000-kernel weight were more heritable, high in variability and genetic advance compared to grain yield with somehow good association with grain yield, with the first two of these traits has positive association with each other while the last two traits were also positively correlated with each other. However, the associations among the two groups were negative. Hence, it is important to compromise selection among these traits to take care of the negative correlations among them and to bring about sufficient improvement in grain yield. Generally, selection for good biomass yield with increased harvest index, and restricted selection for number of kernels per spike and 1000-kernel weight could be useful as indirect selection criteria for improving grain yield.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an advanced textbook and a reference book for the post-graduate plant-breeding students and the plant breeders. It consolidates fundamental concepts and also the latest advances in plant-breeding practices including development in crop genomics. It contains crop wise explanation on origin, reproduction, genetics of yield contributing traits, biotic and abiotic stresses, nutritional improvement and crop specific plant-breeding procedures and techniques. The chapters are planned to describe crop-focused breeding procedure for the major crop plants as per their economic importance. The recent developments in breeding of field crops have been reported. The recent progress made in mapping traits of economic importance has been critically reviewed for each crop. The progress made in markers assisted selected in few crops has been summarized. This book bridges the knowledge gap and bring to the researchers and students information on modern breeding tools for developing biotic and abiotic stress tolerant, climate resilient and micronutrient rich varieties of field crops. The chapters in book are contributed by experienced Plant Breeders.

Download or read book Barley Science written by Gustavo A Slafer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-03-12 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find up-to-date information on barley for malting, food, and animal feed! This comprehensive book covers every aspect of barley from molecular biology to agronomy of yield and quality. In addition to the exposition of the basic concepts, Barley Science explains the latest developments in the field. In addition, this remarkable book presents ideas and techniques for bridging the gap between physiology and breeding. Beginning with the history of this ancient cultivated grain, Barley Science presents state-of-the-art information on genetics and breeding, physiology, and agronomy. One chapter explains the CERES computer simulation of barley growth, development, and yield. Every chapter includes a thorough literature review, and you will find many helpful tables and figures. Barley Science offers cutting-edge information on the latest developments in the field, including: wild barley as a source of genes for crop improvement genetics and breeding for specific attributes genetic engineering determining barley yield under stress new breeding strategies for disease resistance choosing genotype, sowing date, and plant density for malting barley enhancing pre-harvest sprouting resistance barley proteins and malting performance Written by the top experts in the field, Barley Science is an excellent update and broadening of the information found in previous barley books. Agronomists, breeders, geneticists, and physiologists--and their students--will turn again and again to this essential resource.

This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present research work was carried out at to study the growth and yield of barley as affected by irrigation, sowing method and phosphorus level. The experiment had three factors i.e irrigation frequency viz. no irrigation (Io), one irrigation (I1) at 25 DAS, two irrigations (I2) one at 25 DAS and 45 DAS and sowing method viz. line sowing (L) and broadcasting (B) method and four levels of phosphorus viz. 0 Kg ha-1, 17 Kg ha-1, 25 Kg ha-1 and 33 Kg ha-1. The experiment was laid out in a Spilt-spilt plot design with three replications. The experiment field was fertilized with cowdung, Urea, Triple Super Phosphate (TSP), Muriate of Potash (MP) and Gypsum. From the results of the present study the following conclusions can be drown: i.Irrigation applied two times at tillering and booting stages, showed better performance on growth and grain yield. ii.A line sowing method was appropriate for growth. iii.Phosphorus applied with P3 treatment i.e 33 kg phosphorus ha-1 at produced higher grain yield and also better for growth. So, a line sowing method with 33 kg phosphorus ha-1 and two times irrigation at tillering and booting stages is better for growth and yield of barley.
