Formerly included species
[edit | edit source]Botanists now regard many species as better suited to other genera:[4] Arrhenatherum, Crithopsis, Dasypyrum, Elymus, Eremopyrum, Hordelymus, Leymus, Psathyrostachys, and Taeniatherum.
Etymology
[edit | edit source]The name Hordeum comes from the Latin word for "to bristle" (horreō, horrēre),[8] and is akin to the word "horror".
Distribution
[edit | edit source]The species are native throughout the temperate regions of Africa, Eurasia, and the Americas.[9][10][11][12][13]
Ecology
[edit | edit source]Hordeum species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species, including the flame, rustic shoulder-knot and setaceous Hebrew character.
Some species have become weeds introduced worldwide by human activities, others have become endangered due to habitat loss.
Uses
[edit | edit source]One species, H. vulgare (barley), has become of major commercial importance as a cereal grain, used as fodder crop and for malting in the production of beer and whiskey.
