The mane barley ( Hordeum jubatum ) is a species of the genus barley ( Hordeum ) within the sweet grass family (Poaceae).
description
Appearance and leaf
The mane barley grows as a perennial herbaceous plant and reaches heights of 20 to 50, rarely up to 60 centimeters. The stalk has three to five nodes (nodes). The leaves are green and softly overhanging in summer. The stem leaves are densely hairy on both sides. The leaf blade is flat.
inflorescence
The flowering time is in the middle of summer . The terminal, overhanging, spiky inflorescences are silky silver-white, turn beige towards the end of summer and often have a slight reddish tinge. In an annual inflorescence three to six spikelets are close together. The spikelets are single-flowered and without basal bristles. Only the middle spikelets are petiolate. The lemmas have long 5 to 8 centimeters awns .
Chromosome set
The maned barley is tetraploid with a chromosome number of 2n = 28 . It was created by crossing ( hybridizing ) a Central Asian species of barley with the North American species Hordeum brachyantherum (or a closely related species that is now extinct).
Occurrence
Mane barley is native to northern North America ( Alaska , Canada ), and Asia from northeastern Siberia to the Caucasus. It is cultivated in gardens and is often released into the wild as "garden refugees", so that this species occurs today as " weeds " in many regions of the world . It thrives on fresh, nutrient-rich, sometimes salty soils in humid climates. It grows in societies of the Sisymbrion or Agropyro-Rumicion associations on the edge of salt-strewn roads.
The mane barley prefers sunny locations and is salt-tolerant.
