Barley is a Monocot.
The second name in a scientific name is the species name. (The first name represents the genus.)
Carl Linnaeus created the binomial nomenclature, where species are identified by their Genus and species name in Latin.
Genetic diversity is a very important issue in agriculture. Gene banks store cells from various species in liquid nitrogen that can later be used to preserve the gene pool of an endangered species. A good example of this principle is in the growing of barley. Barley has a narrow genetic base, which leads to vulnerability to disease and pests. Since 1900, no more than 20 sources of germplasm have contributed to the varieties that make up the majority of US barley acreage. This concerns growers and breeders because of two recent warning signs: since 1994 two barley head blight epidemics that have caused billion dollar losses to farmers. Efforts are being made by the North American Barley Genome Mapping Project to build maps of barley germplasm to introduce resistance to the blight into the US barley germplasm base. Over 1,000 loci have been placed on these maps, showing where on the DNA traits such as malting quality, winter-hardiness, and disease resistance are located.
There are a number of what scientists call a 'cereal grain', uncluding wheat, barley, oats, and so forth.
No. Barley is not wheat at all. Barley and wheat are two different species of cereal grasses belonging to the family Triticeae. Barley does belong in the wheat family, which is, as mentioned, Triticeae, but is of an entirely different species from wheat. The species name for barley is Hordeum vulgare, and the species name for wheat is Triticum aestivum. No doubt either look similar, but both are quite different from the other.
No, barley is a completely different species of grain from wheat, just as rye and oats are.
Barley got its name fro the Barley sugar that was often made into small spiral sticks.
barley = ಜವೆಗೋಧಿ (javegOdhi)
Nicole Barley's birth name is Nicole Treuter.
Barley is a cereal of the species Hordeum vulgare, or its grains, often used as food or to make beer and other malted drinks.
Barley bristle is called Awn.
No. Barley and Oats are two different grains. They're both grasses, but other than that are not especially closely related; barley is much more closely related to wheat and rye than it is to oats.
While oats and barley are both important cereal grasses, they are completely different species. See the related links below for more information.

Barley straw in German is called "Gerstenstroh."
