Triticum zhukovskyi
Species of grass
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Triticum zhukovskyi, or Zhukovsky's wheat,[1] is a hexaploid wheat, very closely resembling the Triticum timopheevii, a tetraploid variety of wheat. T. zhukovskyi was first observed in Western Georgia in close proximity to Triticum timopheevii and Triticum monococcum and is believed to be an amphiploid arising from the cross of T. timopheevii and T. monococcum.[2]
