Correlation between hordatine accumulation, environmental factors and genetic diversity in wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum C. Koch) accessions from the Near East Fertile Crescent.

Abstract excerpt

Wild barley shows a large morphological and phenotypic variation, which is associated with ecogeographical factors and correlates with genotypic differences. Diversity of defense related genes and their expression in wild barley has been recognized and has led to attempts to exploit genes from H. spontaneum in breeding programs. The aim of this study was to determine the variation in the accumulation of...
