Abstract

Cereal (Grains) Genomics Breeding Barley Head loss Straw breakage Crop and pasture improvement (incl. selection and breeding)
The dataset contains phenotype data focused on head loss and straw breakage, collected in Esperance, Katanning, and Geraldton from 2011 to 2014. This was the output of the GRDC-funded project: UMU00051 - DAW00246 Reduce barley head loss and straw breakage by genetics and management. Headloss is a problem in barley when the crop/plants are unable to withstand the environmental conditions once the head has developed and the plant reaches physiological maturity. It is at this final stage of plant development that the greatest structural forces are imposed on the head (and plant) when interacting with environmental conditions. The understanding of this interaction and identifying genetic components in barley cultivars that enable greater head retention is the main focus of this research project.
