Abstract
Some of the mutants obtained by treatment of grains of hull-less spring barley breeding line 1N/86 with two chemomutagens (MNU and SA) were characterized by the shorter straw and increased resistance to lodging as compared to their initial form. Eighteen mutants and the line 1N/86 were evaluated in the field trial performed at the Experimental Station in Cerekwica. After harvest, plant height and some characters of yield structure were examined and analyzed statistically. Plant height of the mutants ranged from 59.9 cm to 71.9 cm, and differed significantly from that of the line 1N/86 (77.1 cm on average). Yield components in the mutants were generally of lower value than those in the initial line, but the forms M 39 and M 142 were characterized both by the greater numbers of grains per spike and the higher weight of grains per plant, although the differences were not significant statistically. The results obtained with these mutants indicate that it is possible to select short-straw spring barley forms showing the improved resistance to lodging and the yielding potential at the level of their initial form at least. These mutants can be promising initial forms to be utilized in the breeding program for hull-less spring barley.
