Residue from cultivars of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), winter wheat, and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) was characterized for fiber and nutrient traits using reference methods and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Calibration models were developed for neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), carbon (C), sulfur (S), nitrogen (N), and C:...

Abstract Soil nematode community structure and composition can inform crop managers about soil quality. However, few studies have assessed the under agricultural systems in cool semi‐arid regions such as U.S. northern Great Plains. We of barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) barley–pea Pisum sativum cropping from 2016 to 2018 one tilled two no‐till field experiments dryland management central southweste...

Barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) has a storied history as food crop, and it long been dietary staple of peoples in temperate climates. Contemporary research studies have focused mostly on hulled barley for malt animal feed. As such, nitrogen (N) seeding rate agronomic data naked are lacking. In this study, we evaluated the effects N ß-glucan protein content, phenotypic characteristics barley, inclu...

Land use change as the most important destructive factor in natural ecosystems is a globally problem that changes soil properties. Therefore, correct management and recognition of change aspects on each component of the ecosystem is necessary. This process causes land destruction, ecosystem instability, soil erosion, and more biological threats. Due to increasing land use conversion from rangel...

to determine chromosomal localization and relationship between field and laboratory indicators of drought tolerance, an experiment was conducted in 2003-2004 cropping season at sararood agricultural research station, kermanshah, iran. seven genotypes of wheat-barley disomic addition lines provided by international center for agricultural research in dryland areas (icarda), their donor and recip...

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] grain yield is severely affected by abiotic and biotic stresses during post-flowering stages, which has been aggravated by climate change. New parental lines having genes for various biotic and abiotic stress tolerances have the potential to mitigate this negative effect. Field studies were conducted under irrigated and dryland conditions with 128 exotic ge...

the main objective in production of any rainfed crop, including barley farming is to increase water productivity along with stability in the production of the rainfed crop through improvement of the agronomic management including limited single irrigation (si) and sowing date (sd). in order to determine optimal si management and limited water allocation scenarios, a field experiment was conduct...

Dryland alluvial rivers vary considerably in character. In terms of processes, high energy, sediment-laden flash floods in upland rivers contrast dramatically with the low sediment loads and languid flows of their lowland counterparts while from a form perspective, the unstable wide, shallow and sandy braid plains of piedmont rivers are quite different from the relatively stable, narrow, deep a...

Under dryland systems of the Mediterranean basin, water management is widely recognised critical for improving grain yield. It has been proposed that nitrogen (N) fertilisation may be a tool to increase yield by increasing use efficiency. We tested in multilocation-multiyear study four different areas Basin if durum wheat and barley respond positively N under rainfed cultivation. The involved 1...
