Powdery mildew caused by the airborne ascomycete fungus Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei
(Bgh) is one of most common diseases of barley (Hordeum vulgare). This, as with many …

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) and genomic prediction (GP) are extensively
employed to accelerate genetic gain and identify QTL in plant breeding. In this study, 1,317 …

Enhanced resistance in barley (Hordeum vulgare) against pathogens, such as the powdery
mildew-causing fungus Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei, is of high importance. The beneficial …

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a powerful tool for identifying marker-trait
associations that can accelerate breeding progress. Yet, its power is typically constrained in …

Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most produced cereal crops in the world. It has
traditionally been used for the production of animal feed and for malting, as well as for …

The study objective was to assess the potential benefits of using genomic tools in organic
plant breeding programs to enhance selection efficiency. A diversity panel of 247 spring …

Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh), the causal agent of barley powdery mildew (PM), is
one of the most important barley leaf diseases and is prevalent in most barley growing …

Powdery mildew is a severe disease in wheat. In barley, durable resistance exists, based on
non-functionality of the Mlo gene. As a model to analyse the effects of mutagenesis in the …

Net blotch (NB) and powdery mildew (PM) are major barley diseases with the potential to
cause a dramatic loss in grain yield. Breeding for resistant barley genotypes in combination …

There is a pressing call for enhancing world food production by at least 60% by 2050 using
the same acreage. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), considered to be a risk-avoidance crop, is …
