The Combining Abilities Of Some Barley ( Hordeum Vulgarel.) Genotypes Under Saline Conditions, Riza Yilmaz, Cahi̇t Konak
The Combining Abilities Of Some Barley ( Hordeum Vulgarel.) Genotypes Under Saline Conditions, Riza Yilmaz, Cahi̇t Konak
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The salt tolerance of eight barley genotypes and their 15 F1 hybrid populations were investigated in line x tester analysis for seedling traits in greenhouse and generative stage characteristics in saline fields. The data indicated that there was sufficient genetic variability among genotypes for salt tolerance in barley. The MENTA "S" genotype for general combining ability and Tokak 157/37 x ZARZA "S", Quantum x No.56000/MISC-233 and Kaya-7794 x ZARZA "S" crosses for specific combining ability had positive and significant estimates both in greenhouse and field conditions. It was determined that spike length, number of grain per spike, single spike yield, …

Heterotic Effects Regarding Salt Tolerance In Some Characters Of Barley (Hordeum Vulgare L.), Riza Yilmaz, Cahi̇t Konak
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The salt tolerance of some barley genotypes and their cross populations were evaluated at seedling stage in a greenhouse, and at the generative stage in a saline field in line x tester analysis. Promising crosses were determined through comparison of heterotic effects. Tokak-157/37 x LIGNEE-640, Quantum x MENTA "S" and Kaya-7794 x MENTA "S" were found to be superior cross combinations with respect to salt tolerance in both greenhouse and field conditions. In the cross populations, the highest- positive heterosis values were 25.00% for seedling emergence, 26.53% for root length, 66.27% for shoot length to root length ratio, 9.39% for …
