Wheat

              Wheat (Triticum spp.) is a cereal grain, originally from the Levant region of the Near East and Ethiopian Highlands, but now cultivated worldwide. In 2010 world production of wheat was 651 million tons, making it the third most-produced cereal after maize (844 million tons) and rice (672 million tons). Wheat is one of the first cereals known to have been domesticated, and wheat's ability to self-pollinate greatly facilitated the selection of many distinct domesticated varieties.
              The major cultivated species of wheat are: Common wheat or Bread wheat (T. aestivum), Spelt (T. spelta), Durum (T. durum), Emmer (T. dicoccum), Einkorn (T. monococcum), Hard Red Spring, Hard Red Winter, Soft Red Winter, Hard White, Soft White.
