Abstract
Barley doubled haploids (DH) were studied to detect linkage between genes conditioning pairs of measurable traits. Populations of DH lines derived from F SUB 1 and F SUB 2 hybrids from the cross Roland x Apex covered material for the study. The following traits were analysed: stem length, spike length, number of grains per spike, grain weight per spike and 1000-grain weight. Based on the relations between means, variances and correlation coefficients in the F SUB 1 DH and F SUB 2 DH populations, the occurrence of linkage between genes responsible for stem length and genes conditioning spike length, grain number and grain weight per spike was recorded. Additionally, independent inheritance of stem length and 1000-grain weight was found
