  1. 21. Barley starch : molecular structure and properties

    Author : Anna Källman; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis examined barley amylopectin structure and looked for correlations between the structure and physical properties of starch. The structure of amylopectin and gelatinisation and retrogradation of starch were studied in 10 different barley cultivars/breeding lines with differing genetic background. READ MORE

  2. 22. Metabolic engineering of starch synthesis in barley

    Author : Staffan Ahlandsberg; Sadequr Rahman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hordeum vulgare; plant breeding; starch; genetic engineering; transgenic plants; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Starch is an important industrial raw material both for food and non-food purposes. In plants, starch is deposited in the leaf and in the storage tissues such as seed endosperm, roots or tubers. READ MORE

  3. 23. Barley genetic resources for Kyrgyz plant breeding

    Author : Birjan Usubaliev; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most important forage cereal crops in Kyrgyzstan. Today it is grown under extremely hard conditions in many highland regions where other crops cannot compete. Kyrgyzstan is a mountain agrarian country and agriculture is one of the major sectors of the economy. READ MORE

  5. 25. Genomic divergence in differentially adapted wild and domesticated barley

    Author : Girma Bedada Chala; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Genomic divergence is responsible for plant differential adaptation to diverse and contrasting environments and different biotic stresses. This thesis focuses on the analyses of the adaptive genomic divergence in wild and domesticated barley and the driving evolutionary forces, and to identify genes and genetic variation with signature of adaptive selection.
