Printed on acid-free paper Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Preface Barley is deemed one of the first plant species to be domesticated. Its cultivation over a very broad range of environments and its versatile utilization for the production of raw material for feed and food render it a top-four crop plant worldwide. Representing the temperate cereals of the Triticeae tribe (wheat, rye, triticale), barley has been used as experimental model since the era of classical genetics and cytogenetics—a role that has been reinforced along the development of contemporary biology and crop plant research. The generation of comprehensive genome sequence data is regarded as a cor- nerstone with major impact into all areas of modern barley research. Thus, we are convinced of the timeliness and importance to survey and reflect the current state of biotechnologically oriented barley research in the present volume of the Springer series Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry. Besides genome sequencing, major progress was achieved by deep sequencing-based transcriptomics, the estab- lishment of comprehensive mutant panels and TILLING platforms, the generation of high-resolution genetic maps, efficient site-directed mutagenesis using custom- izable endonucleases, as well as the establishment of automated plant phenotyping facilities. This powerful suite of tools greatly facilitates the elucidation of molec- ular mechanisms underlying plant performance, which by itself is a prerequisite for knowledge-driven progress in barley breeding to cope with future challenges in agriculture and the related value chain. The present volume is structured into two major sections: the first focusing on current agricultural challenges and approaches to barley improvement and the second giving insight to recent progress in methodology. The individual chapters provide the reader with comprehensive information spanning from fundamental aspects to special applications. We are grateful to all the contributing authors—all are leading scientists in their respective field of research—for their outstanding input. All chapters were exten- sively peer reviewed to ensure for high standard and scientifically sound informa- tion throughout this compilation. We thus are very grateful to the contribution of all the involved reviewers, who were willing, in addition to the general load of v vi Preface reviewing that all of us are facing these days, to review and comment on the contributions to this volume. All their names are listed overleaf and their help is very much appreciated. We hope this volume will serve as a useful resource for interested readers with good basic biological knowledge, students, and teachers especially of the life sciences as well as for established scientists working on barley or related subjects. Great thanks also to Springer Publishing for its indefinite patience and support. Gatersleben, Germany Jochen Kumlehn Nils Stein Chapter Reviewers Frank R.
