METHODS OF BREEDING NEW MALTING BARLEY VARIETIES*

The Application of Microsatellite Analysis in Barley Malting Quality Breeding Programmes

Leišová-Svobodová L., Tomková L., Sedláček T., Psota V., Kučera L. (2014): The application of microsatellite analysis in barley malting quality breeding programmes. Czech J. Genet. Plant Breed., 50: 268–277. A set of 43 microsatellite loci was used to characterise the malting barley varieties and breeding lines used for the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) “České pivo” (“Czech beer”) and...

Study of the Effects of Pre-harvest Sprouting on the Storability and 1 Malting Quality of Three Canadian Malting Barley Varieties

10 Variations in the germination and malting performance during storage of three Canadian 11 malting barley varieties AC Metcalfe, CDC Kendall and CDC Copeland, which had 12 suffered from different degrees of pre-harvest sprouting damage (PHSD) at harvest, 13 were examined. These barley samples were collected in Saskatchewan, Canada during 14 two successive crop years (2007-2008). During storag...

Simulation of yield and quality of malting barley

A computer simulation model was developed to determine the likely response of grain yield and quality of malting barley crops to differing availability of water or nitrogen (N) and differing soil and climatic conditions. The model was validated for New Zealand conditions by comparing the results of model simulations with data from malting barley crops grown in the Manawatu. Simulations were the...

on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning

the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...
