Abstract

Hordeum vulgare is grass that may be either a winter or a spring annual of the POACEAE (GRAMINAE) family. It forms a rosette type of growth in fall and winter, developing elongated stems and flower heads in early summer. Winter varieties form branched stems or tillers at the base, so several stems rise from a single plant. The stems of both winter and spring varieties may vary in length from 30 to 120 cm, depending on variety and growing conditions. Stems are round, hollow between nodes, and develop five to seven nodes below the head. At each node, a clasping leaf develops. In most varieties, the leaves are coated with a waxy chalk-like deposit. Shape and size of leaves vary with variety, growing conditions, and position on the plant. The spike contains the flowers and consists of spike-lets attached to the central stem or rachis.
