Loose smut can be one of the most destructive diseases of barley. (Adapted from University of Maine Cooperative Extension 2014, reviewed 2020.

Calcisols accommodate soils with substantial accumulation of secondary carbonates. Calcisols are widespread in arid and semi-arid environments, often associated with highly calcareous parent materials. Many Calcisols have formerly been called Desert soils. In the United States of America most of them belong to the Calcids, and in Australia to the Calcarosols. In the Soil Map of the World (FAO–UNESCO, 1971–1981) most of them belong to the Xerosols and to a lesser extent to the Yermosols. (IUSS Working Group WRB. 2015. World Reference Base for Soil Resources 2014, update 2015 International soil classification system for naming soils and creating legends for soil maps. World Soil Resources Reports No. 106.
