  Ethiopian barley landraces are recognized as an important genetic resource with which to search for tolerance to biotic stresses. Five hundred eighty five barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces collected from 13 barley producing zones of Ethiopia were evaluated for resistance to BYDV serotype PAV under field conditions at Sinana and Goba during 2018 and 2019 cropping seasons. The trial was laid out in an augmented design consisting of six blocks. Data on disease incidence, severity and some agronomic traits were recorded. The result of analysis showed highly significant variations among landraces for disease incidence, severity and agronomic traits. The BYDV incidence and severity varied from 0.0 to 45.3% and 12.0 to 58.0%, respectively. Similarly, the variations among landraces in terms of regions of origin, altitude classes and kernel row number were significant. Landraces o.. View more»
