Inheritance of Apospory in Buffelgrass

Crop Science, 1994
Previous studies on inheritance of monopolar (Panicum type) apospory in the Panicoideae resulted in three widely different genetic models and mutually incompatible data sets. We report additional data for tetraploid buffelgrass [Pennisetum ciliate (L.) Link = Cenchrus ciliaris L.] and attempt to reconcile earlier studies.

Genetic Diversity among Pentaploid Buffelgrass Accessions

Crop Science, 2015
ABSTRACTBuffelgrass [Pennisetum ciliare (L.) Link (syn. Cenchrus ciliaris L.)], an important pasture and range grass in the arid semi‐tropics and tropics, has excellent drought‐tolerance but lacks winter hardiness. It is a polymorphic, apomictic species and its most common chromosome number is 2n = 4x = 36.

Apospory‐Linked Molecular Markers in Buffelgrass

Crop Science, 1997
Isolation of a gene controlling apomixis would be useful to plant breeders for fixing hybrid vigor. A single gene encodes for aposporous apomixis in buffelgrass (Pennisetum ciliare L. Link), which is inherited in a autotetraploid fashion. Only two molecular markers linked to the gene are known: C04‐600, a RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) and ...

Stamen-specific proteins of buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris)

Journal of Plant Physiology, 1991
Summary Total proteins were extracted from Cenchrus ciliaris L. (buffelgrass) pistils at the stages of megasporogenesis and of embryo sac enlargement and from anthdrs at the stages of microsporogenesis and of uninucleate microspore enlargement. They were analyzad by two-dimensional isoelectric focusing/SDSpolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Facultative Apomixis in Buffelgrass¹

Crop Science, 1980
We studied embryo sac morphology, chromosome number, reproductive behavior, and phenotype of buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) line 18‐35 to obtain further evidence regarding the occurrence of facultative apomixis in the species. Line 18‐35 is an F1 llne derived from a cross of obligately sexual TAM‐CRD B‐Is with an apomictic plant from Africa. Within

Stigma Receptivity and Seed Set in Protogynous Buffelgrass

Crop Science, 2000
Buffelgrass, Pennisetum ciliare (L.) Link syn = Cenchrus ciliaris L., is an important warm‐season perennial forage grass that is widely grown throughout the arid tropics. It has perfect florets, and emasculation is thought to be required to produce controlled hybrids. This is a tedious, difficult undertaking because of the small floret size.

Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) Responses to Tebuthiuron

Weed Science, 1983
Tebuthiuron (N-[5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiozol-2-yl]-N,N′-dimethylurea} pellets (20% ai) applied at 0.6, 1.1, or 2.2 kg ai/ha in the spring at two locations and in the fall at a third location on the South Texas Plains did not significantly decrease buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliarisL.

Performance of Buffelgrass Germplasm with Improved Winter Survival

Agronomy Journal, 1996
AbstractLack of winter hardiness in buffelgrass [Cenchrus ciliaris L.; syn. Pennisetum ciliare (L.) Link] currently limits the utilization of this species in Texas and northern Mexico. This study was conducted to assess differences in field survival and yield potential of buffelgrass germplasm believed to have increased levels of winter hardiness.
