Collaborative project: SEEDSET: Development of stress tolerant barley lines with improved seed set and yield under terminal drough. Subproject 1.
Project
Project code: 2814504110
Contract period: 01.02.2011
- 31.01.2014
Budget: 523,730 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development
Comprehensive screening of a DH population from a 'stay-green' and efficient 'remobilization' line will result in identifying improved barley lines with improved seed set and grain yield under drought stress. By implementing complementary genomic and genetic approaches we will identify genomic regions influencing improved seed set under drought andderive molecular markers. More specifically, the selected contrasting lines will be characterized using genome wide transcriptome, targeted metabolite and hormome profiling to define the basis of genetic networks to increase drought tolerance. The developed genetic material is directly responsible for the implementation in breeding program to develop GMO-free drought-stress-tolerant lines.
