The Mercada variety is used as a reference standard when describing the morphological traits of barley according to international UPOV testing guidelines. The main morphological characteristics of the variety include short ear length and very high ear density.
In scientific publications dedicated to in vitro cultivation methods, the variety is mentioned in the context of genetic research, particularly when assessing the yield level of regenerants from microspores. Detailed agronomic indicators, such as yield or disease resistance, are not presented in the publications.
