2 articles

Cereal crops are grasses cultivated for their edible grains, encompassing staple food plants such as wheat, rice, maize, barley, oats, rye, and millet. As the world's most widely grown agricultural plants, they are central to plant science research spanning genetics, genomics, breeding, and stress physiology. Understanding cereal biology—from grain development to disease resistance and climate adaptation—has broad implications for global food security and sustainable agriculture.
