Abstract

A field experiment was carried out in the Experimental Research Station at Nubaria, ARC representing newlyreclaimed areas during two successive seasons of 2005/06 and 2006/07 to evaluate 16 barley (Hordeum vulgareL.) genotypes grown under water stress and calcareous soil conditions. The evaluation included yield and itscomponents, growth attributes, earliness and kernel protein content. A randomized complete block design wasused with three replications. Only two irrigations, i.e. at sowing and heading were applied to expose plants towater stress. Results showed that there are significant differences among the 16 barley genotypes for most of thecharacteristics. Four barley genotypes; Malouk//Aths/Linee686,Alanda-02/4/Arizona5908,Alanda/3/CI08887/CI05761//Lignee640, and Alanda/ Harma//Alanda01out yielded the check cultivars in grainand biological yield with some other advantages such as earliness, harvest index, leaf area index, and higherprotein content. It is suggested that those genotypes could have more genetic stability studies to be grown in suchcalcareous soils.
