Genotypic and growing location effect on grain β-glucan content of barley under sub-tropical climates
Effect of genotype and growing location on barley grain beta glucan content was studied in 25 barley genotypes grown over six different locations in India. Based upon the two years results, the genotypes BCU 554, BH 963, ...
Identification of barley genotypes with higher protein content coupled with bold grains for food and malt barley improvement under sub-tropical climates
Grain protein content is very important trait with respect to barley grains meant for food, feed and malt purposes. Barley grain protein content was evaluated in several genotypes for two years at different locations under ...
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 ...
Adoption level, yield and constraints in Indian barley (Hordeum vulgare) cultivation: Insights from baseline data for identifying livelihood prospects
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is an important nutritious cereal in India with growing demand for malt preparation, brewing and food industries. Over years, declining acreage along with distorted production becomes a major ...
Characterization for DUS descriptors and environmental interaction studies for grain protein and starch content in barley (H. vulgare)
This study was carried out to characterize released Indian barley varieties for distinctiveness, uniformity and
stability during rabi, 2012-13 and 2013-14 at Karnal and Faizabad. A total 79 genotypes were observed with ...
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 ...
