Studies of near isogenic lines of several Graminaceous species (Triticum durum
Desf., Triticum aestivum L., and Hordeum vulgare L.) have shown that
glaucousness is associated with increased water use efficiency, grain yield, straw
biomass, ...

However, Johnsonetal. (1983) did not find any significant effect of glaucousness
on yield among contrasting near isogenic lines (NILs) under very dry
environments as against highyielding environments. Genetics of Glaucousness

Plant Breeding for Water-Limited Environments
(1983) and Richards et al. (1986) field-tested isogenic lines of durum wheat
differing in glaucousness. The trait was not found to be associated with the
amount of EC but with leaf reflectance which was greater in glaucous than non-
glaucous ...

The visually scored traits were glaucousness, days to heading, relative maturity,
an agronomic score (agronomic suitability and estimated yield potential), flag leaf
size, and leaf rolling. High RWL was negatively associated with yield, and ...

Eucalypt Ecology: Individuals to Ecosystems
Attention was drawn to the evolutionary, ecological and ecophysiological
significance of glaucousness in the early to mid 1950s and the mid 1970s (
Barber 1955; Barber and Jackson 1957; Thomas and Barber 1974a,b). Clinal
