Net blotch disease caused by Pyrenophora teres is one of the most damaging fungal diseases of barley crop. This study screened comparatively the effectiveness of eleven fungicide products applied to malting barley (Hordeum vulgare L. conv. distichum Alef.) cultivar ‘Daciana’ in conditions from Transylvania. After fungicide treatment, the net blotch disease index decreased an average of 70.37-78.04% relative to untreated control. Fungicide application ensured an average of 28.66% grain yield increase, 7.51% thousand grains weight increase and 4.36% grain starch content increase relative to untreated control. Top performance was obtained by using products that contained demethylation inhibitors targeting sterol biosynthesis in combination with other active substances with a different mode of action particularly targeting mitochondrial respiration. It is a difficult task to achieve top performance on all dimensions: strict disease suppression, high quantity and quality grain yields. Preventing the occurrence of pathogen resistance to fungicide and minimizing negative effect on crop as well as remanence in the plant, are the main challenges for fungicide use and should receive further attention.

There is lack of information on the yield and yield component performance of same-row and alternate-row mixtures (SRM and ARM) of widely contrasting barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) phenotypes. Therefore, four phenotypically contrasting spring barley cultivars, each selected to represent a unique combination of spike type (two-row or six-row), height (short or tall) and days to maturity (early or late) were used in 1991 and 1992 in field experiments at the Elora Research Station in Ontario, Canada, with the objective of determining whether a yield and/or yield-component advantage could be associated with same-row or alternate-row mixtures of barley cultivars. The four cultivars chosen for the study were each grown as monocrops, and in all six possible binary (two-cultivar) mixture combinations as same-row or alternate-row mixtures, in a randomized complete block design. A 13% yield increase of early, short:late, tall SRM over the midcomponent (weighted mean of the components grown in monocrop) yield in 1991, and 14% yield increase of early, tall:late, tall SRM over the midcomponent yield in 1992 was observed. Between the 2 yr, cultivars in ARM produced similar or significantly greater yields than the monocrop yields, except in 1991, when the late, short cultivar in ARM with early, tall cultivar produced significantly lower yields than in monocrop. The spike number m–2 was similar for all mixtures and their midcomponents, except in 1992, when early, short:late, short in ARM produced 7.0% more spikes than the midcomponent. The results of this study indicate a possible yield advantage of phenotypically contrasting barley mixtures compared to monocrops, with early, short:late, tall and early, tall:late, tall in same-row mixtures having the best combining abilities.

Abstract On dark gray forest and leached chernozem soils of the Tambov region, the effectiveness of using new granular organic fertilizer from poultry excreta was evaluated. After disinfection of the litter by deep drying, the total content of NPK in the fertilizer constitutes 11-12%, the content of trace elements is about 1g/kg. Field experiments conducted in 2019 showed that the yield increase from the introduction of the studied organic fertilizer at a dose of 4-8 t/ha on spring wheat was 25-30%, on spring barley - 20-23%, on sugar beets from the introduction of 8 t/ha - 10-12%, on potatoes - 40-50%, on tomatoes from 6 t/ha - 30-32% Profitability from the use of this fertilizer on cereals is 130-145%, on technical crops - 140-150%, on vegetables - 230-250%. Optimal fertilizer doses contribute to increasing protein in wheat grains by 1.5%, sugar content in sugar beets by 8-9%, starch content in potatoes by 3-4%, and sugar, dry substances and vitamin C content in tomatoes by 1-2%. The introduction of fertilizer in doses higher than optimal contributes to the increase of basic nutrients and micronutrients content in the soil.

Benefits of KCl application to cereals have been documented in Great Plains soils and have been attributed primarily to a response to the Cl- portion of this fertilizer either due to disease suppression or a Cl- deficiency. The practice of placing small amounts of KCl with the seed to avert any of these undesirable effects has been gaining momentum in western Canada. However, research on benefits from KCl fertilization of barley on high K soils in western Canada is limited. A large number of trials (115) were conducted from 1989 to 1998 on western Canadian prairie soils to ascertain the response of barley to seed-row applied KCl fertilizer. All soils contained K levels in excess of what is considered a critical level for obtaining a yield response to K due to K deficiency. Statistically significant yield increases with KCl application were obtained in 37 of 115 trials (32%). There appeared to be a strong link between the probability of obtaining a significant yield response to seed-row applied KCl, and barley cultivar and previous crop. Growing Harrington barley on barley stubble resulted in a grain yield increase due to KCl seed-placement 60% of the time. However, no clearly defined mechanism for the grain yield responses could be drawn based on the determined parameters, except that the majority of responses did occur under conditions that promote disease (e.g., disease susceptible cultivar, barley sown on barley stubble, etc.) and that the lower the soil “available” K levels in those instances, the higher the grain yield increase. Hence, it is hypothesized that K may play an indirect role in suppressing disease by increasing the overall health of plants. None of the assessed plant characteristics other than yield, i.e., days to maturity, kernel plumpness, protein and root rot infection, benefited from application of Cl- as either KCl or CaCl2.

In model experiment, an influence of increasing KCl doses on spring barley growth, accumulation of main mineral nutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Na) in main stalks, offshoots and roots and on yield formation and its structure was observed. Increase of weight of above-ground parts of plants was inhibited only at the beginning of experiment by increasing KCl doses, particularly, significantly lower growth of offshoots, but on the other hand production of dry weight of roots was negatively influenced during whole cultivation. Accumulation of main mineral nutrients in the plants was mostly influenced at potassium. Uptake of potassium by plant increased up to 37%. Yield of kernels was higher at variants with application of KCl but the correlation between higher K doses and the yield increase has not been statistically proved. Increase in the yield was reached by higher number of offshoots, higher number of kernels and higher weight of kernels in comparison with control. Content of main mineral nutrients in kernel was not influenced by application of KCl, but potassium content in straw was significantly increased.

Studies on disease susceptibility of spring barley varieties important for the Lithuanian market were carried out at the Department of Plant Pathology and Protection of the Institute of Agriculture, Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry in 2017–2019. The study is aimed to compare susceptibility of spring barley varieties grown in Lithuania to fungal diseases. The experiment was installed in a two-lane block: one lane was sprayed with fungicides and other lane was sprayed with fungicides two times. During the study years, powdery mildew, net blotch, spot blotch, ramularia leaf spot and leaf rust occurred in spring barley. Powdery mildew was the most prevalent in the variety ‘Grace’ – the AUDPC index of powdery mildew was on average 186.17, while in the least damaged variety, ‘Rusnė DS’, it averaged 0.48. The intensity of net blotch in the variety ‘RGT Planet’ was 1.38%, several times higher compared to that of the most resistant variety ‘Ema DS’ – 0.30%. The average intensity of spot blotch was 2% in the variety ‘Propino’, which was the most severely affected, and only 0.24% in the least affected variety ‘Luokė’. The application of fungicides resulted in the highest yield increase (1 t ha–1) in the spring barley variety ‘Luokė’.

The Impact

Aim. Osmotic pressure of nutrient medium is known to be an important factor for morphogenesis in plant cell, tissue and organ culture in vitro. The investigations was aimed to elucidate the effect of maltose concentration and to evaluate the impact of mannitol add on callus, embryoid formation and plant regeneration in spring barley anther culture in vitro. Methods. Anthers of DH-line with a high androgenetic capacity were inoculated on inductive media contained N6 macro-, MS micronutrients, organic supplements, maltose (0−9.0 %) and 0.1 M mannitol. Results. A decrease in maltose concentration from 9 to 6 % had a strong negative effect on these processes. At the same time, addition of 0.1 M mannitol to medium containing 6 % maltose promoted sufficiently increase the efficiency of embryoid formation and plant regeneration. Conclusions. Medium osmotic pressure mainly determined by a high maltose concentration played an important role in spring barley haploid production. Decrease in maltose content could be compensated by addition of mannitol, which is osmotic substance with low metabolic activity.

The effect of presowing seed treatment on various concentrations of dicarboxylic (organic) acids on the sowing characteristics of spring barley has been studied. Seeds were treated with organic acids obtained by exposing cuttings to the radiation with a dose of 100 kGy and consequent hydrolysis, in concentrations: 1•10-7 %; 1•10-9; 1•10-11; 1•10-13 and 1•10-15 % on a laboratory rotary machine RVO-64 for one day before laying for germination. Distilled water was used for the control case. The rate of application of the working solution calculated as 10 liters / ton of seeds. Seeds were germinated in filter paper rolls in accordance with GOST 12038-84 requirements. The temperature was maintained at +24 ° C in the thermostat where the glasses with rolls were placed. For determination of germinative power and laboratory germination the sprouted seeds were evaluated after three and seven days, respectively. In laboratory experiments it was established that the treatment of barley seeds of varieties Zazersky 85, Nur and Vladimir with organic acids (OK) in different concentrations had both a stimulating and a negative effect. On the Zazersky 85 variety, in variants with acid concentrations of 1•10-9 and 1•10-11, an increase in germination energy (EP) by 2-4% and a significant decrease (by 3-4%) of laboratory germination (LV) of barley seeds were noted. On the Nur variety, the increase in EP was observed at 4% (concentration 1•10-11), LV and seed growth force (CPC) by 2-7% at a concentration of 1•10-7 and in the dose range 1•10-11 - 1•10-14 compared to the control values. On the grade of Vladimir, an increase in EP, LV, and CPC was found to increase by 1-6% at concentrations OK 1•10-7 and 1•10-13. It was shown that the treatment of seeds with acids led to an increase in the length of the germ in all studied varieties (by 3-9%) and dry biomass of 7-day-old seedlings - by 3-6%. Consequently, the treatment of seeds with a mixture of dicarboxylic acids has a stimulating effect on the sowing quality of spring barley.

A.Trof.: one coeleste (L.) A.Trof.) from 26 countries, 11 years and four places of reproduction was analyzed. Seeds with 5–8% moisture content were stored in chamber with unregulated and 4oC temperature. The possibility of seed storage under these conditions for at least 10 years without significant changes in germination has been established. The importance of meteorological conditions in the formation and ripening of seeds for their longevity is confirmed. The relationship between the decrease of barley seeds longevity and storage conditions, amount of rainfall, temperature regime during the growing season of plants is discussed.

Kernel colour is an important marketing trait for both malting and feed barleys. Therefore a study was initiated to investigate the kernel colour of 75 Canadian barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars at three locations (Charlottetown, Ottawa and Bentley) across Canada in 1991 and 1992. Kernel colour was measured by an Instrumar Colormet Spectrocolorimeter. Kernel colour was found to be brighter at the two locations in eastern Canada (Charlottetown and Ottawa) than at the location in western Canada (Bentley). Two-row cultivars on average were more discoloured than six-row cultivars; eastern two-row were more discoloured than western two-row. Covered barleys were less discoloured than hulless barleys in five of the six environments, but covered barleys at Bentley in 1992 were more discoloured than hulless barleys. Kernel discolouration appeared to be associated with susceptibility to net blotch for six-row cultivars. More studies are needed on kernel discolouration of barley.
