Overview
Triticum urartu is an allohexaploid crop (Triticum_aestivum 2N = 6x = 42) with three genomes A, B and d. the donor species of Triticum aestivum a genome is Triticum urartu and the donor species of D genome is Aegilops tauschii, the type of donor for the B genome has not yet been determined.
Triticum urartu is one of the diploid species of Triticum L. with 2N = 2x = 14, and the karyotype is AA. It is distinguished from other diploid species by its double long awns per spikelet, hairy base of spikelet and soft short hairs on leaves. Similar in shape to a wild grain of wheat, it has six varieties. Each spikelet has two awns, most fruiting 1 grain. The cristae of the protecting glumes is obvious. Grain with skin, difficult to threshing, high protein content, up to 20% . Easy to cross with wild one grain wheat.
