Phenotypic Evaluation of Spring Barley RIL Mapping Populations for Pre-harvest Sprouting, Fusarium Head Blight and β-Glucans
2012
The overall objective of the research is to develop molecular markers which can be used in spring barley breeding. The aim of this study was to summarise phenotyping data from recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations for mapping the QTLs for resistance to pre-harvest sprouting and Fusarium head blight (FHB) as well as content of β-glucans. The field and laboratory experiments were performed at the State Priekuli Plant Breeding Institute and at the State Stende Cereal Breeding Institute for two seasons (2010–2011). The mapping populations for pre-harvest sprouting consist of 93 (RILs produced from a cross between hulless barley (HB) breeding line ‘PR 3642’ (susceptible) and HB variety ‘CDC …
Biochemical Composition of Spring Barley Grain Pearled to Varying Degrees
2017
Abstract Differences in biochemical composition in dehulled and pearled grain samples affected by the various degrees of pearling were studied for spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Twelve covered spring barley and two hulless genotypes were examined. Commercial samples of pearled barley were included for comparison. Covered barley grain samples were pearled using a small-scale barley pearler to obtain dehulled and pearled barley grain products with pearling percentage of 12% and 30%, respectively. Significant differences were observed in the chemical composition between dehulled grain and pearled grain. As the outer layers of the covered grain were removed to a greater degree by pearling,…
