Abstract excerpt
Seed dormancy is essential to avoid pre-harvest sprouting (PHS), and germination is vital for agricultural production planning and malting. The malting barley genetic resource Chikukei 9713 is PHS tolerant but quickly breaks seed dormancy after harvest. We found that Chikukei 9713 and the barley cultivar Seijo 17 were PHS tolerant because exon-9 of the seed dormancy gene sd1 was of the dormant type. However, the...
