New sources of genetic diversity must be incorporated into plant breeding programs if they are to continue increasing grain
yield and quality, and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses. Germplasm collections provide a source of genetic and
phenotypic diversity, but characterization of these resources is required to increase their utility...
Facultative/winter six-row malting barley is a distinct elite germplasm pool and a valuable resource that may prove useful in meeting the challenges of climate change. To preserve its diversity and make it accessible to the research and agricultural communities, the Oregon State University and University of Minnesota barley breeding programs...
'Alba' (Reg. No. [CV-355, PI 672535]) is a winter, six-row barley released by the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station in 2012. The name “Alba” was chosen due to the bright and attractive appearance of the crop at maturity. In high rainfall environments, it has a notable yield advantage over check varieties...
The Genome-Wide Association Studies approach was used to detect Quantitative Trait Loci associated with tocochromanol concentrations using a panel of 1,466 barley accessions. All major tocochromanol types- α-, β-, δ-, γ-tocopherol and tocotrienol- were assayed. We found 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with the concentration of one or more of...
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) has been cultivated for human consumption for thousands of years. However, most North Americans do not consume barley on a regular basis. In the last decade, there has been a renewed interest in barley production for human consumption. A number of quality traits estimate nutritional value...
