Genetic variability in agronomic traits of a germplasm collection of hulless barley

genetic diversity of hulless barley lines and path analysis by grain yield and other agronomic traits

20 hulless barley lines were assessed by grain yield and other agronomic traits in 2006 and 2007 in the research station of the university of tabriz, iran. the experiments in each year were carried out as randomized complete block design with four replications. the genotypes were significantly different for most of the studied traits. this indicated the existence of large genetic variation in t...

Identification of genetic resources of field resistance to barley leaf rust in local germplasm of cultivated barley

The barley leaf rust has been important in recent years in Iran. In order to identify the genetic resources of resistance to this disease, 207 Iranian barley landraces were studied. The germplasms were investigated at the field of Iraqi-Mahalleh research station in Gorgan as the disease hotspot under natural incidence over three years. The results showed that four genotypes including KC18638 an...

Estimating genetic parameters of agronomic and uality traits in a diallel cross of sugarbeet

Genetic Diversity in A Core Subset of Wild Barley Germplasm

Wild barley [Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum (C. Koch) Thell.] is a part of the primary gene pool with valuable sources of beneficial genes for barley improvement. This study attempted to develop a core subset of 269 accessions representing 16 countries from the Plant Gene Resources of Canada (PGRC) collection of 3,782 accessions, and to characterize them using barley simple sequence repeat (SS...

Genetic Analysis of Agronomic Traits of Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Cultivars under Salinity Stress using Diallel Cross

In order to determine the heritability and genetic parameters of some agronomic traits in barely (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars, a seven-parent half diallel (F1 crosses + parents) was conducted in the non-stress and salt stress (8 and 12 ds m-1) conditions in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Genetic analysis was performed by Hayman’s method and Griffing’s fixed model,...
