Improving barley for biofuel production – efficient transformation for lignin manipulation
… of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) genes in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Barley has been chosen as the target plant for lignin manipulation for a few reasons: it is a major cereal crop that produces large amounts of lignocellulosic plant biomass that can potentially be used as animal feed or …

Are Barley Dwarfing Genes Important in Tolerance to Abiotic Stress?
… GoF and loss of function (LoF) mutants of the barley DELLA orthologue, Sln1, were characterised and growth and development assessed. By subjecting DELLA wild-type and mutant barley plants to abiotic stress conditions (salt stress and heat shock) it was established that the increased survival …

Function of C1A barley peptidases and their inhibitors (cystatins) in barley seed germination : Funcion de las peptidasas C1A de cebada y sus inhibidores (cistatinas) en la germinacion de la semilla
… a propeptide, and the mature protein. In barley, we have identified 33 cysteine-peptidases from the papain-like family, classifying them into 8 different groups. Five of them corresponded to cathepsins L-like (5 subgroups), 1 cathepsin B-like group, 1 cathepsin F-like group and 1 cathepsin …

[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, …
