Hordeum Vulgare
Hordeum vulgare (barley) is the world's fourth most important cereal crop and an important model for ecological adaptation. It was one of the first domesticated cereal grains originating in the Fertile Crescent over 10,000 years ago. Although the human diet is not a primary use, barley offers potential health benefits, and is still the major calorie source in several parts of the world.
