Thinopyrum elongatum
Thinopyrum elongatum, also known as tall wheatgrass, is a perennial cross-pollinating grass species. It is considered an important genetic resource for wheat improvement programs due to its resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses. The species is highly adaptive to contrasting changes in environmental conditions, such as drought, low temperatures, soil salinization, and bog formation, and is also resistant to fungal diseases.
