Identification of Genetically Diverse Lines for Yield, Yield Components and Quality Characters in Promising Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Genotypes

Selection criteria parameters for improving seed yield in hulled barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) under north-western Himalayan conditions

“…Due to its ample environmental and morphological rigidity, colourful types of barley (downtime, spring, two-rowed, six-rowed, awned, awnless, hooded, covered, naked, malting, feed and food types) are grown throughout the world (Kumar et al, 2018). The most essential pre-requisite for planning and prosecution of a resourceful parentage programme is the vacuity of desirable inheritable variability for important characters in the genotypes (Sunil et al, 2017). Genetic variability is a basic requirement for crop improvement as this provides wider scope for selection .…”
