Plant growth regulator and spring nitrogen effects on grass seed crops in western Canada
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used in herbage seed crops to mitigate lodging risk and protect seed yield, though their effects on aging perennial grass stands remain understudied. This study evaluated the effect of PGRs on the agronomic characteristics of herbage seed crops of creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra L.), meadow brome (Bromus ...
