Cultivated barley, Hordeum vulgare 1. , one of the major cereals planted in the world, is a founder crop of the Old World Neolithic food production and one of the earliest crops domesticated. It is an important crop , ranking fifth in world crop production. In order of importance, barley is used for animal feed, brewing malts and human food. Barley is a short season, early maturing cereal with high yield potential. It may be found in widely varying environments, including extremes of latitude and altitude where other crops are not adapted.

In Tunis and Morocco, there exist some H. vulgare subsp. spont aneum plant s, not found in Egypt . In Africa no perennial wild barley species have been found. • Th e South American Center: This cente r includes Argentina, Chile, Peru and Urugury. Zhukovsky suggested that South America was one of the original centers of Hordeum, in which some perennial wild barley species could be found, such as H. com osum found in Argentina and Chile, H. chilense found in Chile, H. lechleri, H. procerum , H. stenostachys, and H.

Vulgare, a predominantly self-pollinated diploid crop (2n=14) , including two-rowed and six-rowed barley, belongs to the tribe Triticeae in the grass family, Poaceae. Triticeae is a big plant group which contains economically important cereals, forages and about 350 wild species. Due to great possibilities for interspecific and intergeneric hybridization, all of these are of putative interest as gene donors in breeding. ), Altai wild rye (Leymus angustus) and intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium) .
