Wheat is a CEREAL plant derived from the wild
Triticum, a grass native to the Middle East.
It is the chief cereal used in breadmaking
and is widely cultivated in temperate
climates suited to its growth. Wheat is
killed by frost, and damp renders the grain
soft, so warm, dry regions produce the most
valuable grain.
