Hordeum spontaneum
Hordeum spontaneum, commonly known as wild barley or spontaneous barley, is a wild grass in the family Poaceae that gave rise to the cereal barley. This species is native to temperate regions of the Old World, from the Mediterranean basin to southwest China. It is adapted to various environmental stresses, such as high temperature, drought, and salinity, and is a potential source of useful genes for barley improvement.
