Production and breeding barley (for beer) created in Institute PKB Agroekonomik

Abstract

Progress in selection and breeding of barley (for beer), depends of available genetic variabilitis, ways of implementing disirable gens in superior genotypes, as well as the selection (choice) efficiency of desirable genotypes, i. e. genetic lines. With high yield and good biological and non-biologic stress resistance, quality barley (for beer) needs to have low content of tailings and proteins, and high content of glucosan's. In last ten years breeding of barely (for beer) in Institute PKB Agroekonomik, recognized one sort of winter barley (for beer) - PKB PIVAN in 2007, whose more serious multiplication and commercial sale began in 2008.

Napredak u selekciji i oplemenjivanju pivskog ječma zavisi od raspoložive genetičke varijabilnosti, načina ugradnje poželjnih gena u superiorne genotipove, kao i efikasnost selekcije (odabira) poželjnih genotipova odnosno linija. Pored visokog prinosa i dobre otpornosti na biološke i abiološke stresove, kvalitetan pivski ječam treba da ima i nizak sadržaj plevica i proteina, a visok sadržaj skroba. Za skoro 10 godina oplemenjivanja pivskog ječma u Institutu PKB Agroekonomik priznata je jedna sorta ozimog pivskog ječma (PKB Pivan) 2007. godine čije ozbiljnije semenarstvo i komercijalna prodaja semena započinje 2008. godine.
