Breeding barley for drought resistance

Ceccarelli, S. | Grando, S. (ICARDA, Aleppo (Syria))

In most developing countries where barley is cultivated, the crop predominates in areas where other rainfed cereals are unprofitable or not possible to grow. This is due to climatic stresses, among which drought is by far the most important. Therefore, breeding barley cultivars more resistant to drought than those currently available is one of the most important objectives of the barley-breeding program at ICARDA
