“…The genus Elymus is the largest, most widely distributed, and also the most morphologically diverse genus in the Triticeae with approximately 150 species, all of which are allopolyploids, containing at least one St haplome (Dewey, 1984;Okito, Mott, Wu & Wang, 2009;Sun, Ni, & Daley, 2008;. Cytological analyses have shown that there are five basic genomes within Elymus (St, H, P, W, and Y).…”
