Triticum dicoccoides
Triticum dicoccoides, also known as wild emmer, is a wild tetraploid wheat species that is genetically close to domesticated wheat. Wild emmer is an annual plant with a brittle spike axis that spontaneously disintegrates at maturity, scattering the seeds onto the ground. The species is considered a crop wild relative of domesticated emmer and is an important genetic resource for wheat improvement programs.
