Barley research in India: challenges and opportunities
Barley in India is grown in marginal, problematic and resource poor soils as a rainfed crop except some malt barley under contract farming. India's annual production of barley is around 1.6-1.8 m tons and area under ...
Barley lines with higher grain beta glucan content identified
In recent years, there has been renewed interest in food barley due to it's health benefitting properties. Barley grain contains a polysaccharide, beta glucan, which has been shown to reduce blood cholesterol and glucose ...
Genotypic and location effect on grain protein content of barley under sub-tropical climates
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a very ancient grain and is considered as a sacred grain the Indian culture.
However, over the years the area and production of barley decreased in India mainly because of availability
of ...
Widening the Genetic Base of Indian Barley Through the Use of Exotics
The genetic base of improved varieties is becoming increasingly narrow due to the commonness of one or more parents in their ancestry. Thus, improved varieties may become vulnerable to the diseases, insect-pests and other ...
Association and multivariate analysis of yield and its components in hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L)
Hulless or naked barley is an important cereal crop in the high altitude areas of Himalayas in India. Now-adays,
it is becoming popular as human food due to presence of higher beta glucan content, since healthy
effects of ...
Conservation agricultural practices to improve quality and productivity of malt barley
Climate change is manifesting itself in many ways across the Indian subcontinent and among the indicators; regional variations as well as reduced number of rainy days, untimely rains and sudden increase in temperature at ...
Genetic relatedness studied at molecular level for huskless barley (Hordeum vulgare)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is fourth major crop in the world that has been under cultivation since ancient times. It is classified into hulled and hulless barley according to the grain type. In India, hulless barley is ...
Genetic evaluation of barly germplasm for lodging tolerance under sub-tropical climates of India
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most ancient crops in India and world, however in last few
decades the area of barley has come down. In India, the crop is getting revived in last two decades and its
area is more ...
Comparative Analysis of Agro-Morphological and Molecular Variations in Huskless Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) under Central Agro-Climatic Zone of India
A set of 24 barley accessions from ICARDA, Lebanon grown under Indian field condition at experimental field of ICARDA- IRP, Amlaha, was analysed for Agromorphological and molecular variability High (40.11) to moderate ...
Diversity assessment of hulled barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) accessions by agro-morphological traits and SSR markers
Barley accessions from ICARDA, Lebanon were grown in Indian condition at ICARDA-IRP (Indian Research Platform), Amlaha, (M.P.) and analyzed for morphological and genetic variability using nine agro-morphological traits and ...
