Abstract excerpt
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is widely cultivated for animal feed, human consumption, and most notably, for malting. Malt quality is determined by both genetic and environmental factors, and its improvement requires a clear understanding of the genomic regions controlling related traits. This study aimed to investigate the genetic basis of malt quality traits in Ethiopian barley genotypes using multi-locus...
