Two-row barley (Hordeum distichum)

Two-row barley (Hordeum distichum). Watercolour artwork illustrating stages of growth of two-row barley. The stem at left is topped by spikelets of flowers, arranged on a raceme. The stem at right shows the development of grains, the weight of which has forced the spikelet to hang downwards. Two-row barley is the oldest cultivar of wild barley and is suitable for brewing due to its high enzyme content. However it does not have the high protein content of six-row barley. All barley is a good source of vitamin E, and the minerals calcium and iron

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour artwork captures the various stages of growth of two-row barley (Hordeum distichum). In the print, we see two stems showcasing different phases of development. The stem on the left proudly displays spikelets of flowers arranged in a raceme formation, while the stem on the right showcases grains that have grown heavy and forced the spikelet to hang downwards. Two-row barley is considered to be one of the oldest cultivars of wild barley and is particularly favored for brewing due to its high enzyme content. However, it does not possess as high a protein content as six-row barley. Barley, in general, is an excellent source of vitamin E and minerals such as calcium and iron. It serves as a staple crop with immense agricultural significance. This botanical masterpiece highlights not only the beauty but also provides valuable insights into its biological characteristics. The intricate details captured by this painting allow us to appreciate nature's wonders and understand how plants undergo changes throughout their growth cycle. From flowering spikes to ripened grains, every stage signifies progress towards becoming a vital food source for humans. This artwork from Science Photo Library invites us into the world of botany and agriculture, reminding us of our deep connection with nature's bounty.
