Patterns of diversity distribution in the Isa defense locus in wild-barley populations suggest adaptive selection at this locus. The extent to which environmental selection may act at additional nuclear-encoded defense loci and within the whole chloroplast genome has now been examined by analyses in two grass species. Analysis of genetic diversity in wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum) defense gen...

Wild barley contains a wide genetic diversity and therefore is adaptable to all kinds of harsh environments. The aim of this research was to determine the extent of drought stress adaptation within Hordeum spontaneum L. genotypes from different climates of Iran. From the primary population of 193 genotypes, a core set consisting of 18 genotypes, were selected based on the highest squared Euclid...

in order to study the reaction of barley genotypes to drought, an experiment was conducted in a factorialdesign based on crd for two wild ecotypes and four crop genotypes of barley in greenhouse. in thisstudy, the barley genotypes and wild ecotypes as the first factor and irrigation treatment with three levelsinclude 70 percent of water holding capacity of soil, 30 and 10 percent as the second ...

Flowering time is a key agronomic trait that plays an important role in crop yield. There is growing interest in dissecting the developmental subphases of flowering to better understand and fine-tune plant development and maximize yield. To do this, we used the wild barley nested association mapping (NAM) population HEB-25, comprising 1420 BC1S3 lines, to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) cont...

wild barley (hordeum spontaneum) has invaded to wheat and barley fields since flamprop-isopropyl was obsolesced in iran. the herbicides of sulfosulfuron and sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron-methyl are able to control it at higher-than-recommended dosages, causing a crop injury. hence, two dose-response experiments in factorial experiment with a completely randomized design with four replications wer...

Barley is a major cereal grown widely and used in several food products, beverage production and animal fodder. Genetic diversity is a key component in breeding programs. We have analyzed the genetic diversity of barley accessions using microsatellite markers. The accessions were composed of wild and domesticated barley representing genotypes from six countries and three breeding programs in Br...
