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 ...
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 ...
Identification of QTLs and underlying candidate genes controlling grain Fe and Zn concentration in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L). Moench]
Biofortification is one of sustainable options for combating micronutrientmalnutrition.
For identifying genomic regions associated with
grain Fe and Zn in sorghum, RIL population (342 individuals) from cross 296B × PVK 801 ...
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 ...
Genome wide association study (GWAS) of resistance to barley spot blotch in South Asia
Spot blotch, caused by Cochliobolus sativus (anamorph: Bipolaris Sorokiniana) is one of the important
foliar diseases of barley in South Asia. However, limited information on genetic resistance of spot blotch
resistance ...
Addressing the global challenges for barley improvement through CGIAR Research Program on Dryland Cereals
The International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) has a global mandate for
barley improvement, specifically for dry areas across the globe. ICARDA has reorganized the spring and
winter barley research ...
Malt barley research in India and future prospects
Malt barley improvement in India was initiated with several introductions viz. Peatland, Pedigree,
Manchuria, Odessa, Clipper, Golden Promise, Midas etc. but these varieties could not popularize due to
late maturity, low ...
Novel sources of resistance to stripe rust in ICARDA barley germplasm
Stripe rust of barley (Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. Hordei) occurs worldwide and host resistance is
the most economically and environmentally appropriate option as the use of fungicides is not very common
in low ...

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 ...
