Genomic selection for accelerated barley breeding
… with the increasing demand for new and improved barley varieties, commercial interest in novel breeding techniques which improve efficiency is high. With a growing population and a range of evolving demands placed on crop production by a more variable climate, breeders need new methods to breed …

Assessing the Benefits of Virginia Tech Agricultural Programs: Studies in Feeder Cattle Certification and Small Grains Breeding
… studies the benefits to producers from wheat and barley breeding conducted by Virginia Tech researchers. Variety trial data are combined with acreage estimates constructed from royalty data to estimate gains from replacement of old varieties with new ones. The study finds that the program …

Investigation of winter wheat sowing date management and genetic architecture of malting quality in winter barley and milling/baking performance in soft red winter wheat
Wheat (Triticum aestivum, L) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) are widely grown as winter annual grains in a double crop rotation with soybean (Glycine max, L. Merr.) in much of the U.S. Improved management strategies and the development cultivars that meet the quality requirements of higher value …

The Genetic Architecture of Grain Quality and its Temporal Relationship with Growth and Development in Winter Malting Barley (Hordeum vulgare)
… of malting quality within the Virginia Tech barley breeding program, and discusses implications for imposing selection on complex traits that are difficult to phenotype. Malting quality measures are destructive, and can not be performed before selection must be made for advancement of …

[EMBARGOED] Analysis of cereal cyst nematode resistance mechanisms in barley
Barley (Hordeum vulgare) is a widely grown, valuable cereal crop that is affected by various pests including nematodes. The cereal cyst nematode (CCN) Heterodera avenae is the most widely distributed and damaging species of nematodes to cereal crops grown in temperate regions, including Australia, …

Identification and mapping of a resistance gene to barley leaf rust(<I>Puccinia hordei</I> G. Otth)
Barley leaf rust (<I>Puccinia hordei</I> G. Otth) has been the cause of numerous and often devastating disease epidemics since the beginning of agriculture. Leaf rust is one of the most important diseases that affect barley (<I>Hordeum vulgare</I> L.) throughout the world. The pathogen <I>Puccinia …

Control of fusarium head blight in wheat: I. Evaluation of host plant resistance and fungicides II. Molecular markers associated with QTL for resistance
… is also an essential tool for control of FHB. Breeding for resistance to FHB has become a very large part of wheat and barley breeding programs in temperate climates. Various sources of resistance have been used to develop new cultivars that have high levels of resistance. The primary objective …
