Four agronomically and genetically diverse spring
barleys were used in a crossing program to study the
inheritance of lysine in barley and to determine its
possible association with certain agronomic and morphological
characters. The cultivar Hiproly was used as the
source of high protein and lysine. Characters measured
included plant...
The focus of this study was to determine if S₁ family recurrent
selection might be successfully used for barley improvement.
Objectives were: 1) to identify suitable methods of evaluating grain
yield in small plots, 2) to study the effects of intermating on mean
values and variances of selected agronomic characters,...
