Genetic Analysis and Molecular Breeding Applications of Malting Quality QTLs in Barley

Malting quality is an important determinant of the value of barley grain used in malting and brewing. With recent sequencing and assembling of the barley genome, an increasing number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and genes related to malting quality have been identified and cloned, which lays a...
