Description:
UC-Gallagher was selected from the cross among ‘Butta 12’, ‘MSel’ (Madre Selva) and ‘BCD-TTA-J’ (a selection of Triumph/Tyra//Arupo ‘s’*2/Abyssinian). Butta 12 was one of the best malting quality lines at the beginning of the UCD malting barley program, MSel was an entry from CIMMYT/ICARDA with resistance/tolerance to Yellow Dwarf Viruses (CYDV and BYDV). BCD-TTA-J (Bar Code TTA selection J) was a re-selection of a genotype also included in the creation of Butta 12 (BU27/3/Triumph/Tira//Arupo/Abyssinian)
