โฆ Synopsis
Several lines from the cross Akka x Feebar were observed to have @-amylase activity considerably in excess of either parent. It is suggested that, from crosses between two-rowed and six-rowed varieties, tworowed genotypes with enhanced levels of grain nitrogen and P-amylase activity may be obtained. These can be successfully exploited in a breeding programme to produce barley varieties with high diastic power.

A new approach to genotypic selection in a plant breeding programme where the genotypes under assessment are grown in a number of environments is examined. It is assumed that these environments are a random sub-set of all possible environments where the genotypes are likely to be grown. It involves
