... BACKGROUND: Studying dynamic processes in living organisms with MRI is one of the most promising research areas. The use of paramagnetic compounds as contrast agents (CA), has proven key to such studies, but so far, the lack of appropriate techniques limits the application of CA-technologies in experimental plant biology. The presented proof-of-principle aims to support method and knowledge transf ...

Abstract:
... Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is the fourth most important cereal crop but very little of this grain is used as a human food. However, it has attracted attention from researchers and food processors during the last two decades. Barley has been recognized as a functional grain because it contains high amounts of β-glucan (4–11%). In addition, it is good source of phenolic compounds and antioxidants a ...

Abstract:
... In this study, physiological and molecular changes caused by different concentrations of tetraconazole were investigated in barley. The analyzes were carried out 7 days after the application of tetraconazole to the seedlings. In physiological analysis, root and shoot length, water loss rate (WLR) and ion leakage were assessed. No significant differences (p > 0.05) were detected overall in tetracon ...

Abstract:
... The cereal cyst nematode, Heterodera avenae, is one of the most economically important pathogens impacting the worldwide production of cereals and is widely distributed in more than 16 regions in China. The present study used the numbers of nematodes inside the plant roots to evaluate the resistance/susceptibility of different subpopulations of barley Hordeum vulgare (QH2R, QH6R and TB2R) to H. av ...

The paper presents the vegetation experiments results on the low-temperature argon plasma effect on barley plants (Hordeum vulgare L.) of the Vladimir cultivar and its influence on morphophysiological parameters and yield. Plasma treatment was once at three organogenesis stages of barley plants: 3rd leaf, tillering and booting. Plasma exposure was 15 and 30 min. The barley plants were grown to ful ...

Abstract:
... Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the more important cultivated crops in the Mediterranean region, where drought and high temperatures during the grain filling stage are the main abiotic stresses limiting its production. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the spike type on the grain yield, thousand kernels weight and some grain filling parameters. The present study was conduct ...

Abstract:
... During the 19th century, ‘Chevalier’, said to have been developed from a single plant found in 1820, was the world‐leading malting barley (Hordeum vulgare). The superior malting quality of Chevalier lead to its world‐wide spread at the time of the development of the malting industry. In this study, we investigate how this cultivar was spread and adopted to Nordic seed systems of the time. Single n ...

Abstract:
... The Mla (Mildew resistance locus a) of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is an effective model for cereal immunity against fungal pathogens. Like many resistance proteins, variants of the MLA coiled-coil nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (CC-NLR) receptor often require the HRS complex (HSP90, RAR1, and SGT1) to function. However, functional analysis of Sgt1 has been particularly difficult, as delet ...

... Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is a valuable agronomic and industrial promising crop with high adaptation potentials considered as understudied species and is not attributed the interest it deserves. This investigation reports for the first time the transferability of barley nuclear microsatellites to pearl millet genome. This allowed the inference of the considerable potential of t ...

Abstract:
... California has a fast‐growing malting industry in need of local production of malting barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to provide malt to a well‐established craft brewing industry. ‘UC‐Capay’ (Reg. no. CV‐376, PI 698168, PVP application number 202100205) is the third malting barley cultivar released by the University of California, following ‘UC Tahoe’ (2016) and ‘Butta 12’ (2019). UC‐Capay is an early ...

Abstract:
... Reports on importance of aquaporins for plant salt-resistance are rather contradictory. We have studied the consequences of expression of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) aquaporin gene, HvPIP2;1, in transgenic tobacco plants on their water relations and capacity to grow under salinity. Detection of HvPIP2;1 protein and mRNA by immunolocalization and in situ hybridization, respectively, confirmed that ...

Abstract:
... Barley contains numerous bioactive compounds of immense health importance, which include β-glucans and phenolic compounds. These compounds have been reported as anti-cancerous due to their unique physicochemical compositions. However, the bioactive compounds are affected by the processing conditions that the grains are subjected to. Consumers demand for moderate processing procedures that have a l ...

Abstract:
... Mutator-like transposable elements (MULEs) represent a unique superfamily of DNA transposons as they can capture host genes and cause higher frequency of mutations in some eukaryotes. Despite their essential roles in plant evolution and functional genomics, MULEs are not fully understood yet in many important crops including barley (Hordeum vulgare). In this study, we analyzed the barley genome an ...

Under the growth experiment, the effect of zinc deficiency in the substrate on a number of growth of barley parameters, the state of the photosynthetic apparatus (PSA), and the parameters seed productivity (Hordeum vulgare L., variety Nur) depending on the phase of plant development were studied. Differences in the response of barley to zinc deficiency at different phases of plant development were ...
... Barley grass polysaccharides (BGPs) are some of the major bioactive constituents of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grass (BG). They exhibit favorable biological activities and health benefits. In this study, seven BGPs were extracted from BG, which was harvested at three different growth stages (e.g., seedling, tillering, and stem elongation), by alkaline-extraction method. Their physicochemical prop ...

Abstract:
... Plants harbor in and at their roots bacterial microbiomes that contribute to their health and fitness. The microbiome composition is controlled by the environment and plant genotype. Previously, it was shown that the plant genotype-dependent dissimilarity of root microbiome composition of different species becomes smaller under drought stress. However, it remains unknown whether this reduced plant ...
