Abstract
Summary: The inheritance of agronomic traits from the barley dwarfing gene donors 'Xiaoshan Lixiahuang' and 'Cangzhou Luodamai' was studied. The results indicated that dwarf plants, six-row and short spikes, dense spikelets and naked kernels, respectively, were controlled by one pair of recessive genes, but a toothed awn was determined by one pair of dominant genes in both barley cultivars. The genes for the six characters in 'Xiaoshan Lixiahuang' were allelic to those in 'Cangzhou Luodamai'. Genetic linkage was found among the genes for plant height, spike length and spikelet density. They were located on the long arm of chromosome 3 (3HL) in the order: plant height, spikelet density, spike length. The genes for naked kernels, six-row spikes and tooth awns were independent of each other, and carried on the long arms of chromosomes 1(7H), 2(H) and 7(5H), respectively. The dwarfing genes were the same as the gene uz in Japanese and Korean barley cultivars
