Diversity, distribution, agronomic and post-harvest management of local barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) variety in South Wollo, Ethiopia

Abstract: The structure of barley varieties were studied, using structured and semi-structured queries, at Legambo, Tenta and Worailu districts of South Wollo, Ethiopia. Eight local barley varieties (Belg, Ginbot, Sene/Nech, Tikur, Holker, Traveler Tegadime and Temezhi) were identified, and got their names found on seed color and planting season. According to farmers, Tegadime is the production leader among all, but the source of seeds and the market chain are the limiting factors for its popularity and this is why it’s… Show more

“…The introduction of modern cultivars started in the 20th century in Ethiopia [ 4 ]. However, the Ethiopian barley cultivation system still uses several relatively unique landraces [ 5 – 9 ]. Most Ethiopian landraces cluster separately from Asian, European, and North African landraces in a phylogenetic analysis of their genomes [ 10 ].…”

“…Cultivated barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) is among the top genetic resources for which the country is known to be the secondary center of diversity, according to Vavilov [ 1 ] and claimed to be the center of origin, according to Bekele [ 6 ] and Negassa [ 7 ]. Until recently, its cultivation is purely traditional and hence, exists largely in landrace form [ 8 ]. Moreover, it is among the top neglected cereals regardless of its huge potential for subsidizing household food security [ 9 ], and supporting national and international breeding programs targeting improved adaptation potential to enhance resilience to drought, diseases and other biotic and abiotic crises [ 10 ].…”
