Wikipedia
Durum wheat or macaroni wheat (also spelled Durhum;"Durham" wheat is a confusion with homonymous Durham, a common place name.''Triticum durum'' or ''Triticum turgidum durum'' ) is the only tetraploid species of wheat of commercial importance that is widely cultivated today. It was developed by artificial selection of the domesticated emmer wheat strains formerly grown in Central Europe and Near East around 7000 B.C., which developed a naked, free-threshing form. ''Durum'' in Latin means "hard", and the species is the hardest of all wheats. Its high protein and gluten content, as well as its strength, make durum good for special uses."," Microsoft Encarta Online Encyclopedia 2007. 2009-10-31.
