Abstract
The barley mutant, TR49, selected in Spain for rapid germination, and its parent cultivar Troubadour, were grown in Scotland in 1991 and assessed for a range of grain and malt quality characters. Results suggested that both genotypes had a potential dormancy problem, although TR49 showed a slight but significant improvement over Troubadour. TR49 produced very large grain which did not completely modify during malting, but still showed an advantage over its parent cultivar for all malting parameters assessed.Keywords
