Genetic diversity of Omani barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) germplasm

Oman has enormous diversity in important crops of global significance like wheat and barley considered as strategic crops. The country has an ancient cultivation history of barley because of its location on the eastern edge of the Arabian Peninsula and is known to have several landraces spread acros...
