Group name: NGB_R. Pickering H. bulbosum introgression lines
Note: Collection: NGB_R. Pickering H. bulbosum introgression lines. Description: R. Pickering H. bulbosum introgression lines contain discrete introgressions of H. bulbosum chromatin in an H. vulgare background. The size and location of the introgressions have been characterised and the introgressions have been assigned to specific chromosomes using molecular and cytogenetic methods. All of them have been screened in small-plot nurseries in New Zealand, Nordic countries and elsewhere; some have been evaluated agronomically in yield trials and developed further by plant breeders in Nordic countries and in Europe, North America and Australasia. The resistance or tolerance of these lines to diseases that are limiting factors in barley cultivation has been recorded. They also possess other traits that could be valuable in breeding programmes such as those focused on tolerance to abiotic stresses.Reference: Pickering, R., Johnston, P., Meiyalaghan, V., Ebdon, S., Morgan, E. 2010.
