Abstract | ||||
Although a considerable effort has been made in developing resisant barley varieties, large losses often result from major diseases (Leaf rust, net blotch, powdery mildew, and stripe diseases) and a search for sources of such resistance is quite important for developing new resistant cultivars. The reaction of these diseases were observed on 200 entries at both seedling and adult stages. Resistance to leaf rust was exhibited by 102 barley varieties and lines, 51 proved highly resistante to net blotch, 22 maintained high level of resistance to powdery mildew, and 125 showed considerable resistance to stripe disease. Entries possessing good resistance might be expected to have considerable value in breeding progammes. | ||||
