Abstract
BRS Borema is an early maturing, two-rowed spring barley registered in 2003 for commercial production in Southern Brazil, bred by Embrapa Trigo. It combines good yield potential with superior malting quality and a reasonable level of disease (net blotch, powdery mildew, leaf rust) resistance. It is well-adapted to all major production regions of malting barley in Brazil.
Highlights
Line number 36 was harvested in bulk in 1997, frum which line CEV 97047 was derived and advanced to yield trials
The F6 progenies were grown in Passo Fundo, where again several lines were seleCled and harvested in bulk
While lhe official directives on yield testing for barley cultivar registration are still pending at the Ministry ofAgriculture (MAPA), the Brazilian Barley Research Commission (Comissão Nacional de Pesquisa de Cevada) decided lhal new cultivars w·e approvable for the recommencled varielies list for the producing regions of southern Brazil (Regi~lo Sul), LJased on yield testing in alleast six environments
