Triticum araraticum Triticum araraticum Triticum araraticum (Araratian wild emmer or Armenian wild emmer) is a wild tetraploid species of wheat. "T. araraticum" is one of the least studied wheat species in the world. The "T. araraticum" species appears to have arisen from the natural hybridization of T. boeoticum and Aegilops speltoides. "T. araraticum" is similar to the domestic T. timopheevii in several ways including physical appearance, cytoplasm type and DNA content. The relationship has led some taxonomists to classify "T. araraticum" as a subspecies of "T. timopheevii". In July 1988 different lines of "T. araraticum" were studied using the C-banding method revealing
Cereal leaf beetle is when about 50% of the eggs have hatched. An alternative is spraying when the adults are laying their eggs, which is also shown to be effective. <br> Cereal leaf beetle The cereal leaf beetle ("Oulema melanopus") is a significant crop pest, described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758.

Adults mate once the temperature warms to above 9–10 degrees Celsius (or 44.6 degrees F) and females have a
