Agropyron (Greek, agros, field, and puros, wheat). Gramineae. Wheat-grasses. Perennial grasses, often producing creeping rootstocks.
Spikelets 3- to many-fld., sessile, placed sidewise, singly and alternately on the opposite sides of a continuous rachis, forming stiff terminal spikes; glumes equal, usually firm, many-nerved, acute or awned, sometimes nearly as long as the spikelet; lemmas 5-7-nerved, usually more or less awned, the palea ciliate on the keels.— Species 30 to 40 in the temperate regions of both hemispheres. The genus differs from Triticum chiefly in being perennial, and in the entire apex of the glumes.
Many of the native species of the western states are important range grasses or furnish nutritious wild hay. One of these, western wheat-grass (A. tenerum, Vasey) (Dept. of Agric. Div. of Agrost. 17:297) has been recently introduced into cultivation and is sold by seedsmen of the northwestern states. One species, introduced from Europe, the familiar quack-grass (A. repens, Beauv., also known as couch-grass, quick-grass and quitch-grass), is a troublesome weed in cultivated land, because of its long, creeping rootstocks. Though difficult to eradicate, it has value as a forage plant.
