Triticale (Ã Triticosecale), /trÉªtÉªËkeÉªliË/ is a hybrid of wheat (Triticum) and rye (Secale) first bred in laboratories during the late 19th century in Scotland and Sweden.s a feed grain, triticale is already well established and of high economic importance. It has received attention as a potential energy crop, and research is currently being conducted on the use of the crop's biomass in bioethanol production.
A source of energy that is dependent on a primary source of energy for its power. Since the production of electricity, for example, is dependent on the use of fossil fuels, nuclear power, or renewable sources, it is referred to as a secondary energy source.
Energy is commonly defined as the capacity of a system or a body to do work. There are many forms of energy (to be described later), but any of them can be used to do work. For example the chemical energy in gasoline can be burned in an automobile engine to make the car move. Electrical energy can be used to turn a motor and make machinery move.
