The pseudogenes of barley [PDF]
SummaryPseudogenes have a reputation of being ‘evolutionary relics’ or ‘junk DNA’. While they are well characterized in mammals, studies in more complex plant genomes have so far been hampered by the absence of reference genome sequences. Barley is one of the economically most important cereals and has a genome size of 5.1 Gb.

Morphological mutants have been useful in elucidating the phytomeric structure of plants. Recently described mutants have shed new light on the ontogeny (development of plant structures) and the phytomeric system of barley (Hordeum vulgare). Since the current model for barley phytomers was not adequate to explain the nature of some mutants, a new model

Albinism in barley androgenesis [PDF]
Androgenesis is highly useful for plant breeding, significantly reducing breeding cycle times, as well as in a wide range of biological research. However, for widespread use this process must be efficient. Despite several decades of research on the phenomenon of androgenesis, many processes involved are obscure and there is much to be understood about ...

The Hybridisation of Barleys [PDF]
The following experiments on the hybridisation of barley were commenced in 1901; consequently the inheritance of some of the characteristics has been known for some time. In view of the fact that from the earlier accounts of Rimpau and Tschermak the main outlines of the story could be traced without any special difficulty, there appeared to be no ...

A COMPARISON OF THE STARCHES FROM BARLEY AND MALTED BARLEY [PDF]
Starch has been isolated from barley and malted barley of the same sample of cereal. The malted-barley starch had a higher apparent amylose content, a higher gelatinization temperature, and smaller granules than that from the original barley. Pre-treatment of the granules of both starches with liquid ammonia was necessary to achieve complete dispersion

Barley Genomics: An Overview [PDF]
Barley (Hordeum vulgare), first domesticated in the Near East, is a well-studied crop in terms of genetics, genomics, and breeding and qualifies as a model plant forTriticeaeresearch. Recent advances made in barley genomics mainly include the following: (i) rapid accumulation of EST sequence data, (ii) growing number of studies on transcriptome ...

Bioactive phytochemicals in barley
Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that regular consumption of whole grain barley reduces the risk of developing chronic diseases. The presence of barley fiber, especially β-glucan in whole grain barley, has been largely credited for these health benefits.

Sixteen varieties were included in the 2005 barley test at Nashua. Each variety was sown in three different plots to average the effects of soil variability. The varieties were planted on March 29 at a rate of 2 bushels/acre. All barley plots were harvested on July 28.
