A critical review of pre‐harvest sprouting in barley

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Pre‐harvest sprouting (PHS) in barley (Hordeum vulgare) threatens grain quality and malting performance. This review synthesizes current knowledge on genetic, environmental, physiological, and management factors influencing PHS susceptibility. Seed dormancy, governed by loci including Qsd1 and Qsd2 (where Qsd is quantitative seed dormancy) and
