Our understanding of the sensitivities of crop responses to changes in carbon dioxide, temperature, and water is limited, which makes it difficult to fully utilize crop models in assessing the impact of climate change on future agricultural production. Genetic coefficients of CERES-Barley model for major domestic cultivars in South Korea (Olbori at Suwon, Albori at Milyang, Saessalbori at Iksan, and Samdobori at Jinju) were estimated from the observed data for daily weather and field trials for more than 10 years by using GenCalc in DSSAT. Data from 1997-2002 annual crop status report (Rural Development Administration, RDA) were used to validate the crop coefficients. The sitecalibrated CERES-Barley model was used to perform crop growth simulation with the 99 treatments of step change combinations in temperature, precipitation and carbon dioxide concentration with respect to the baseline climate (1981-2010) at four sites. The upper boundary corresponds to the 2071-2100 climate outlook from the RCP 8.5 scenario. The response surface of grain yield showed a distinct pattern of model behavior under the combined change in environmental variables. The simulated grain yield was most sensitive to $CO_2$ concentration, least sensitive to precipitation, and showing a variable response to temperature depending on cultivar. The emulated impacts of response surfaces are expected to facilitate assessment of projected climate impacts on a given cultivar in South Korea.

This study was conducted for 2 years at Chinju region to establish suitable seeding rate and fertilizing levels of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium in spring-sown Jinyangbori. Heading and maturing were delayed by increasing fertilizers, especially nitrogen. Number of spikes per were secured by much seeding and increased application of nitrogen. One thousand grain weight reduced with increasing fertilization at any seeding rate. Relatively high harvest indices were observed with 12-10-4 at 10kg. 10a$^{-l}$ seeds planted, followed by 6-10-8 at 15 kgㆍ 10a$^{-1}$, and 6-10-4kgㆍ 10a$^{-l}$ at 20kg ㆍ 10a$^{-l}$ of N-P-K fertilizing combinations, respectively. There was no distinct differences on yield for various seeding rates in spring-sown barley. When seeding rate increased up to 15kgㆍ10a$^{-1}$, the positive effect of fertilizers was recognized as the function of balanced-application. It was possible to recommend 10kgㆍ10a$^{-1}$ as seeding rate and 6-5-4(N-P-K)kgㆍ10a$^{-1}$ as fertilizing combination in spring-time seeding considering low input and sustainable agriculture. There was no significant difference of protein content in grain by seeding rate. Increase of nitrogen fertilizer enhanced protein content in grain.

Physicochemical properties of milled rice, brown rice, pearled barley, wheat, sorghum, foxtail millet, soybean, and adzuki bean were evaluated for the production of extrusion formed multi-grain. Grain flours showed large differences in chemical composition including starch, protein, fat, ash, and total dietary fiber contents. Grain flours were brighter in the following order of milled rice>pearled barley>soybean>brown rice>wheat>sorghum>adzuki bean>foxtail millet, and most of the grain flours showed red-yellowish color. Mean particle sizes of grain flours were different among various grains, and whole grain flours tended to have coarser particle size than milled grain flours. The amounts of damaged starch in cereal flours were varied from 5.4 to 10.9%, and limited amount of damaged starch was present in legume flours. Water absorption index of grain flours was, in decreasing order, adzuki>bean>milled rice>brown rice>sorghum>wheat>foxtail millet>pearled barley>soybean. Water solubility index was higher in legume flours containing high protein content.

Varietal and annual variations in the contents of ${\beta}$-glucan fractions per weight grain samples were examined in sixteen covered and eighteen naked barley and five oat cultivars developed in Korea. Also, the effect of pearling on ${\beta}$-glucan content was investigated. Average contents of total, soluble and insoluble ${\beta}$-glucan fractions were 5.25, 3.72, and 1.53%, respectively, in covered barley, and 5.86, 3.51, and 2.35%, respectively, in naked barley. Soluble ${\beta}$-glucan content was higher in covered barley, though total ${\beta}$-glucan content higher in naked barley. The total and insoluble ${\beta}$-glucan contents were higher in pearled grains. Total ${\beta}$-glucan content was higher in waxy barley than in non-waxy barley. Duwonchapssalbori, a two-rowed and waxy naked barley cultivar, was highest in total, soluble and insoluble ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Highly significant positive correlations were observed between total ${\beta}$-glucan and soluble ${\beta}$-glucan contents both in covered and naked barley. There were significant annual variations in total ${\beta}$-glucan content in barley. Average contents of total, soluble and insoluble ${\beta}$-glucans of oat cultivars were 4.33, 3.44, and 0.89%, respectively. Contents of all fractions of ${\beta}$-glucans were higher in barley than in oat. These results would be useful for the breeding of high ${\beta}$-glucan variety and also for the use barley and oat as valueadded food ingredients.

The objective of this study was to investigate the variability in crude protein (CP) and amino acids (AA) content in cereal grains imported from different origins in Korea from 2006 to 2015. The values of CP and AA contents in corn, wheat, and barley were obtained from 430 and 325 samples from six countries, 83 and 56 samples from seven countries, and 60 and 58 samples from three countries, respectively. The CP concentrations in corn, wheat, and barley ranged from 7.12 (Brazil) to 7.68% (India), 10.55 (Ukraine) to 13.26% (Brazil), and 9.46 (India) to 10.49% (Ukraine), respectively. The Lys concentrations in the corn, wheat, and barley ranged from 0.18 (Argentina) to 0.24% (China), 0.26 (India) to 0.34% (China), and 0.23 (India) to 0.31% (Australia), respectively. The concentrations of CP and AA varied among different countries of origin (P<0.05), except for Met in wheat and CP in barley. The coefficients of variation for CP were 3.26, 9.06, and 5.36 from corn, wheat, and barley, respectively. The correlation coefficients (r) between CP and Lys concentrations in corn, wheat, and barley were positively correlated and were 0.322, 0.277, and 0.542, respectively. In conclusion, CP and AA concentrations varied not only from different countries of origins but also within the same country due to the geographic region in which they are produced.

Research on barley as an animal feed started some decades ago but its utilization in animal production has been limited to countries that grow the crop extensively. Corn has been the most popular energy feed in cattle rations, but the high price of corn and the decreased supply of the grain in the international market have shifted the focus of the animal industry to other cereal crops like barley. Studies have indicated that growth performance of cattle fed barley-based diets has been generally comparable with that of those fed corn-based diets, while results for cattle fed whole-crop barley silage have been more variable. Beef from cattle fed barley-based diets has proved to be as tender and as acceptable for taste as that from animals fed other finishing diets when compared at similar growth rates and degree of finish. The barley crop contains good amounts of antioxidants like 2"O-GIV isovitexin, so from the meat science point of view, a desirable influence of these components on meat quality traits such as meat color, oxidative stability and sensory characteristics might be expected. Furthermore, the effect of the distinctive fatty acid profile of beef fed from whole-crop barley silage on sensory traits is also an important subject to be elucidated. A lot of studies have been made over past decades on the effect of barley, and especially whole crop barley, on beef cattle production and meat quality, but these data have not been collectively documented in a review. The current review re-visits previous literature to underline the effects of barley in the diet on beef quality traits and to identify areas for further studies.

Estimate of heritabilities, genotypic and phenotypic correlations and path coefficient analysis were performed for the seven characters of barley cultivars (Hordeum vulgare L.). Heritabilities of broad sense for stem length and spike length were 0.923 and 0.907. Kernels per spike, grain yield and 100 grain weight also showed high heritabilities. High genotypic and phenotypic correlations existed between stem length and 100 grain weight. Grain yield showed highly significant phenotypic correlation with spike length, 100 grain weight and kernels per spike. Genotypic correlations between those characters were moderately high. Number of stem had greatest direct effect but the number of spike had a strong negative direct effect upon grain yield. Kernels per spike via number of spike showed greatest indirect effect and the number of stem via number of spike showed strong negative indirect effect upon grain yield.

The study aimed to investigate the relationship between the rates of leaf senescence and photosynthate translocation at post-anthesis. Seven barley varieties were observed at Suweon in 1988-89. The varieties differed significantly in the number of leaves survived and the rate of photosynthate transolcation with the progress of grain filling. The rate of grain filling was higher in the fast leaf sene-scencing varieties than the slow senescencing ones. There was a close coincidence between the rates of grain filling and $\^$14/c translocation into grains. Photosynthesis was higher in the fast leaf senescencing varieties at early stage of grain filling, but the reverse phenomenon was observed at the late stage of grain filling. The grain yield of fast senescencing varieties was higher than that of slow ones.

No reliable basic data were available on the kinetic friction coefficients between grains and frictional surfaces being used in grain handling equipments in Korea. In order to determine appropriate kinetic friction coefficient between three grains (Tongil, Jinheung, barley) and two surfaces at four levels of moisture content of grain, the laboratory tests using the newly designed experimental apparatus and strain gage measuring system were carried out, and the relationship among factors that affect kinetic friction coefficients of grains were analyzed. The results of this study are summarized as follows ; 1. Kinetic friction coefficient of samples being tested was dependent on surfaces and moisture content of grains . The ranges of them were 0.369-0.512 for Tongil variety , 0.347-0.469 for Jinheung variety, and 0.360-0.502 for barley, respectively. 2. There was a little difference of kinetic friction coefficients between two varieties of rice at the same testing conditions. Because the interaction had been large among treatments , each value of kinetic friction coefficient determined in this study should be used only for the corresponding conditions in this study . 3. Kinetic friction coefficients in creased linearly with increase in moisture content of grains and their regression equations were shown in Table.4. 4. Kinetic friction coefficients on a PVC surfaces was shown a little lower values than on the steel surfaces at various moisture levels, but especially in Jinheung and barley, a big difference was shown.
