Abstract

Wild barley Hordeum bulbosum is an important genetic resource for the adaptation of cultivated barley to climate changes, especially for the improvement of resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. Within a bilateral German-Israeli cooperation project supported by the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) a collection trip was carried out in June 2013 with the aim to develop a systematic collection of H. bulbosum from most of the natural habitats in Israel to get more detailed information about the genetic diversity of this species and to identify new sources of resistance.
