About
This collaboration seeks to advance the development of novel barley genotypes, suitable for both winter and spring cultivation, with elevated beta-glucan content for food applications. The primary goal is to produce waxy-endosperm barley rich in dietary fiber and beta-glucan, contributing to improved nutrition and addressing diet-related diabetes, cholesterol, and digestive health challenges.
