Linking stomatal traits and expression of slow anion channel genes HvSLAH1 and HvSLAC1 with grain yield for increasing salinity tolerance in barley

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Soil salinity is an environmental and agricultural problem in many parts of the world. One of the keys to breeding barley for adaptation to salinity lies in a better understanding of the genetic control of stomatal regulation. We have employed a range of

Genetic evaluation of hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare) genotypes for morpho-physiological traits and stripe rust resistance

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences
Nowadays, hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is gaining importance as a raw material for food industry due to its highly nutritive value. Non-availability of high yield and disease resistant varieties has restricted its production in marginal areas ...

Patterns of physiologic diversity of Puccinia triticina on wheat in Indian subcontinent during 2008-2013

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2016
Brown (leaf) rust of wheat, caused by Puccinia triticina was widely distributed in all the wheat growing areas. To identify new pathotypes and determine the virulence pattern of Puccinia triticina, rust samples were analyzed from the wheat growing areas
