Abstract
Thirty-six collections of foxtail barley (Hordeum jubatum L.) from North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Montana varied in susceptibility to 1-(2-methylcyclohexyl)-3-phenylurea (siduron) as determined from radicle elongation of treated seeds. Data from F2 seedlings of crosses between tolerant and susceptible selections indicated that three complementary dominant factors control the inheritance of siduron tolerance in foxtail barley. Evolution of siduron-tolerant foxtail barley could occur from selection pressure.
