EFFECTS OF LOW WATER AVAILABILITY ON ROOT PLACEMENT AND SHOOT DEVELOPMENT IN LANDRACES AND MODERN BARLEY CULTIVARS

Effects of Low Water Availability on Root Placement and Shoot Development in Landraces and Modern Barley Cultivars

Early vigor has been proposed as a favorable trait for cereals grown in drought-prone environments.This research aimed at characterizing early stage shoot and root growth of three Spanish barley landraces compared with three modern cultivars.Genotypes were grown in an automated phenotyping platform, GrowScreen-Rhizo, under well-watered and drought
