Barley Genotypes

Lack of suitable barley varieties that exhibit high yielding is the major factor among several production constraints contributing to low productivity of barley in Nepal. The present study was done to evaluate and recommend the best performing barley genotypes. This study was conducted at research field of Hill Crops Research Program (HCRP), Dolakha, Nepal under National observation nursery (NON), initial evaluation trial (IET), coordinated varietal trials (CVT) and farmer's field trials (FFT) during winter seasons from 2017 to 2018. The results of these trials showed that in NON, genotypes namely B86023-1K2-OK3 (6.16 t/ha), Xveola-28/MATICO"S"10 (4.41 t/ha) and ACC#2079 (4.41 t/ha) produced higher grain yield over Farmer’s variety (3.57 t/ha). The pooled analysis over years of IET revealed that genotypes namely LG-51/Xveola-2-77-0-3-1-1-OK (2.12 t/ha) and B86099-2-1-OK (2.06t/ha) produced higher grain yield over standard check variety (Solu Uwa) (1.85 t/ha) and Farmer’s variety (1.95 t/ha). Similarly results of combined analysis over years of CVT showed that the genotypes namely B90K-007-0-2-2-0-OK (2.14 t/ha) and ICB90-0196-OAP-2K-OK (1.97 t/ha) produced higher grain yield over standard check variety (Solu Uwa) (1.12 t/ha) and Farmer’s variety (1.66 t/ha). In farmer's field trials (FFTs) the genotypes namely Muktinath ( Coll#112-14 (2.64 t/ha)), NB-1003-37/903 (2.23 t/ha) and Xveola-45 (2.04 t/ha) produced higher grain yield which was at par to standard check variety (Soluuwa) (1.58 t/ha) and Farmer’s variety (1.85 kg/ha). It is suggested that the superior genotypes derived from CFFT could be released and then recommended to farmers for general cultivation in Dolakha and similar other environments of Nepal.

The effect of the time of incorporation of different green manures and barley residues on the grain yield of spring cereals in two successive seasons was studied in seven field trials. Annual hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), westerwold ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam. var. westerwoldicum) and straw of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were incorporated into the soil by ploughing in early September, late October and the following May, and by reduced tillage in May. Spring barley was established in the following spring, and spring oats (Avena sativa L.) one year later. In general the grain yield of spring barley after legumes was similar to that after barley, in spite of the fact that N fertilization was reduced by 40 kg ha-1. The two autumn ploughing treatments resulted in a good yield of spring barley more reliably than did the spring incorporations. Because delayed autumn ploughing did not decrease the grain yield, a delaying procedure can be recommended for its potential of decreasing nitrogen leaching. Spring ploughing could be used on all but clay soils. Incorporating ryegrass or red clover in spring by using reduced tillage often decreased the grain yield of barley. Timing of incorporation did not have a consistent effect on the grain yield of oats in the third experimental year.;

Identification of salt tolerant barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes and effects of different levels of salinity on their growth, grain development and yield were studied. One hundred and eighty nine barley germplasms were subjected in five levels of NaCl concentration which were equivalent to Electrical Conductivity (EC) of 0, 10, 15, 20 and 25 ds/m. Among the genotypes 39 proved to be saline tolerant at 15 ds/m of salinity. Out of 39 genotypes, 33 were evaluated at Sonagazi and Patuakhali salt area of Bangladesh. All the genotypes were evaluated in the non-saline area at BARI, Gazipur to observe their performance in normal soil. Highest grain yield was recorded from the genotypes BSH-32 and BSH-142 over the three locations. Significantly higher yield was recorded from the experimental site of Gazipur followed by Patuakhali and Sonagazi. Tiller per plant had positive correlation with grain per spike, maturity and grain yield. Grain per spike and maturity was positively correlated with grain yield. From the multivariate analysis it appears that 1st, 2nd and 3rd principal components together account for 79 per cent of the total experimental variation. The two selected genotypes are expected to be released for commercial cultivation in the saline area of Bangladesh.       Key words: Barley, Genotypes, Selection, Salt tolerant, Bangladesh DOI = 10.3329/bjb.v36i2.1504 Bangladesh J.

Early Effect

Chlorsulfuron was applied post-emergence to four barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars sown at the end of May (sowing date 1, SD1) and mid June (SD2) in weed-free field trials at Wagga Wagga in 1990. Crop growth and development was measured from the time of application to maturity by destructive harvests and using a multispectral radiometer. Chlorsulfuron significantly (P < 0.05) reduced dry matter (DM), leaf area index (LAI) and tillering as measured by destructive harvests between the three-leaf stage and anthesis, from both SD1 and SD2, and there was no significant (P > 0.05) interaction between cultivar and herbicide treatment. The interaction between cultivar and chlorsulfuron was marginally significant (P < 0.1) for LA1 as measured by the radiometer (LAI-R) from SD2. Tolerant cultivars (Grimrnett and Lara) had greater LAI-R than the sensitive cultivars (Schooner and Clipper) in all treatments at all stages of development. LAI-R of the untreated controls reached a plateau at the end of tillering, whereas LAI-R of chlorsulfuron-treated barley increased until mid-jointing. LAI-R of sensitive cultivars showed a greater proportional reduction from chlorsulfuron treatment between the end of tillering and mid-jointing than did the tolerant cultivars. The radiometer showed potential as a rapid, non-destructive and inexpensive method for measuring crop damage caused by herbicides. The effect of chlorsulfuron on grain yield depended significantly on the cultivar (herbicidexcultivar interaction, P < 0.05). At SD1, chlorsulfuron reduced grain yield of Schooner to 54% of untreated controls and Clipper to 66%, compared with the more tolerant Grimmett (83%) and Lara (76%). Similar but smaller responses were measured from SD2. Kernel number per m2 was the most important determinant of yield reflecting the early effect of the herbicide on crop growth.

Abstract. The objectives of this study were to estimate the heritability of yield and yield-related traits and to compute the correlation of grain yield with yield-related traits among the spring barley genotypes. The experiment was laid out in a complete block design with three replications in the Institute of Agriculture – Karnobat, Bulgaria during two consecutive years 2017 and 2018. Genotypes differed significantly for all the traits studied. Genotypic coefficients of variation were lower than the corresponding phenotypic coefficients in all the traits studied, indicating a considerable influence of the environment on the expression of the traits. Estimates for broad-sense heritability ranged from 0.65% for grain number per spike to 44.20% for 1000-grain weight. Moderate heritability coupled with relatively high genetic advance as a percent of the mean was found for 1000-grain weight suggesting a reliable possibility for improvement through selection. A significant and positive correlation between grain yield and number of spikes per m2 and grain weight per spike was found. Results of path analysis showed that grain weight per spike and number of spikes per m2 exhibited the highest direct effects on grain yield. The number of spikes per m2 was highly associated with grain yield but mostly influenced by environmental effects. The grain weight per spike should be prioritized for selection of superior spring barley genotypes under conditions of Southeast Bulgaria due to its highest direct effect on grain yield combined with higher heritability than that of grain yield. Moreover, it must be considered that the grain weight per spike had relatively low heritability in a broad-sense so the selection should be practised in later generations in replicated trials.

Barley Genotypes

In 2008-2011, grain yield and chemical composition were assessed in a set of spring barley genotypes with standard and changed amylose/amylopectin ratio (non-waxy and waxy, respectively) at two locations (Kroměříž, Žabčice). Genotypic as well as environmental effects were important for the variations in contents of chemical compounds. The waxy genotypes had statistically significantly higher levels of β-glucans and protein (6.9% d.m., 12.1% d.m., respectively) than genotypes with the standard starch character (5.4% d.m., 11.5% d.m., respectively). The hull-less waxy genotype KM2619.413.4 was statistically significantly different from all other genotypes in the set due to its highest content of β-glucans (10.80% d.m.). We found statistically significant differences between genotypes divided by the type of grain (hulled vs. hull-less) and also by the starch character (standard vs. waxy) in average starch contents as follows: hull-less genotypes with the standard starch composition (64.8% d.m.) > hull-less waxy genotypes (63.7% d.m.) > hulled genotypes with standard starch composition (61.4% d.m.) > hulled waxy genotypes (60.0% d.m.). Genotypes with elevated grain constituents (higher starch and BG contents) could be important from the point of a prospective use of barley for food production as was already found for example in the hulless waxy genotypes KM2645.412.3.4.6 (63.7% and 8.0%, respectively) and KM2551.469.1-2 (64.1% and 7.0%, respectively).

A series of experiments were carried out to evaluate the performance of exotic potato clones including PRP lines at research field of Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Parwanipur, Bara, Nepal during the winter seasons of 2017 and 2018. Thirty-nine potato clones were evaluated in initial evaluation trial and eleven clones were evaluated in coordinated varietal trial with check varieties Khumal Ujjwal and Kufri Jyoti. From the initial varietal trial in 2017, the highest tuber yield (21.54 mt/ha) was found in CIP389660.9 followed by CIP391046.14 (21.38 mt/ha). In 2018, the highest tuber yield (29.72 mt/ha) was produced in CIP392759.1 followed by CIP393085.5 (26.92 mt/ha) and CIP391046.14 (26.64 mt/ha). In 2018, the tuber yield was the highest (26.12 mt/ha) in PRP 266265.15 followed by CIP 393371.159 (24.79 mt/ha). In coordinated varietal trial carried out in 2017/18, the highest tuber yield was noted in CIP394600.52 (42.65 mt/ha) followed by CIP395443.103 (30.83 mt/ha) and CIP395445.16 (24.43 mt/ha) respectively. Whereas in 2018/19, the highest yield was produced by PRP266265.15 (26.12 mt/ha) followed by CIP393371.159 (24.79 mt/ha) and CIP 396012.266 (22.66 mt/ha) respectively. In RARS, Parwanipur conditions, CIP 394600.52, CIP 395443.103, CIP 395445.16 and CIP 304394.56 along with PRP 266265.15 were found to be superior to standard check variety. These potential genotypes need to be further verified in farmers field in additional districts of central Terai region before notifying in the national seed system. Adoption of these clones as variety may increase the potato production and improve the food, and nutritional security in the central Terai region of Nepal.

The article presents the results of research on the formation of corn yield for grain depending on the elements of cultivation technology in the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The goal of the research was to identify the influence of plant density and fertilizer system on the yield of corn hybrids for grain. The research was conducted during 2017-2019 in the research field of Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University (Bila Tserkva NAU). Research methods: field, calculation and statistical. Results. Regularities of growth, development and formation of yield by plants are revealed, both in concrete conditions of years of researches, and taking into account average long-term values taking into account features of hybrid-oriented technology. According to the results of the experiment it was recorded that the maximum yields for growing early-maturing maize hybrid DN PIVYHA with FAO 180 in general were obtained at a pre-harvest density of 75 thousand units/ha and the use of combined organo-mineral fertilizer system - 11.09 t/ha; medium-early maize hybrid DN ORLYK, FAO 280 in general in the experiment provided a grain yield of 9.60 t/ha, and in terms of 2017 - 7.86 t/ha, in 2018 - 11.22 t/ha and in 2019 - 9, 72 t/ha, but the medium-ripe hybrid of corn DN SARMAT, FAO 380 provided a grain yield of 10.81 t/ha, and in the context of 2017 - 9.31 t/ha, in 2018 - 11.68 t/ha and in 2019 - 11.44 t/ha. Significant influence on the formation of the yield of corn has a hybrid factor (27 %), fertilizer system determines the level of productivity by 21 % and interacts closely with the conditions of the growing season (factor BV 9 %), growing season conditions also determine the level of productivity of corn plants (19 %), and the pre-harvest density determines this feature by 18 %. Conclusions: In the conditions of the Right Bank part of the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine there is an increase in the level of productivity of maize hybrids from early to medium-ripe hybrids, regardless of the influence of other experimental factors.

Abstract A field experiment was carried out for over two seasons (autumn and spring) as a split–split plot scheme based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. The main plots included two irrigation levels of the maximum available water depletion (maximum allowable depletion (MAD)) of 55 and 85% as non-stress and drought-stress environments, respectively, and the subplot accommodated two levels of nitrogen (0 and 62.5 kg N/ha, urea fertilizer); also, 20 barley genotypes were assigned to the sub-subplots. The biplot analysis of both sowing seasons showed that grain yield (GY) had a high positive correlation with total biomass (TB), whereas it had a high negative correlation with proline and total soluble carbohydrate as drought-tolerance-determinant characteristics. The genotypes which had the lowest and highest GY ranked significantly (P ≤ 0.01) different with changing the sowing season under each irrigation level, indicating a larger plant interaction and non-stability in response to the season change (about two-fold), as compared to the change in the irrigation conditions. It could also be concluded that barley genotypes might experience a higher decrease in GY and sensitivity to water deficit in the autumn sowing season, as compared to the spring planting season, which was also intensified by nitrogen application. However, the response to nitrogen application depends on the plant genotype.
