Sajid Rehman. (5/2/2017). Sources of resistance in the existing breeding germplasm will be identified for incorporation in the elite cultivar/variety.
Abstract
In order to identify new sources of resistance to net blotch, a FIGS subset consisting of 96 barley accessions was screened with a mixture of 20-isolates of net blotch collected from different agro-climatic regions of Morocco. Of the 96 accessions, 30 accessions of barley were found to be resistant to net blotch. Similarly, the same FIGS subsets of 96 accessions of barley was also challenged with spot blotch. Of the 96 accessions, 17 accessions of barley were found to be resistant to spot blotch. In addition, LI-AM and HI-AM panels were also screened with a mixture of 17-isolates of spot blotch and 54 and 69 accessions were found resistant, respectively
