Developing graminoid cuticle analysis for application to Beringian palaeoecology

Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, 2010
Abstract Much of Beringia was composed of graminoid (grass and sedge) dominated habitats during the Late-Pleistocene, yet the account of the actual gramioids that were present is relatively vague. The spatial and temporal variabilities of palaeoclimate, mega-fauna, archaeology, and vegetation interactions could be significantly enhanced with accounts

Simulation study of east-African perennial graminoid responses to defoliation

Ecological Modelling, 1984
Abstract The responses of East African grasses to defoliation at specific heights and frequencies were simulated mathematically over a single optimal growing season. The simulation model used morphological and physiological features of graminoid growth that are known to affect responses to defoliation.

Graminoid community composition and structure within four everglades management areas

Wetlands, 1990
Estimates of species density, percentage vegetative cover, biomass, and sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense) height were made in Tall Sawgrass, Medium Sawgrass, and Wet Prairie communities in the SE portion of Water Conservation Area 3A (3A), the SW portion of Water Conservation Area 3B (3B), the NW portion of Northeast Shark Slough (NSS), and the NE portion ...

Can graminoids used for mine tailings revegetation improve substrate structure?

Botany, 2016
The seeding of agronomic graminoid species that are tolerant to the compacted and low aeration conditions associated with mine tailings allows for rapid cover of mine waste, which in turn controls erosion. These graminoids can be used as primer-species on mine tailings to improve the rooting of other plant species, which may not tolerate soil ...

Growth responses of arctic graminoids following grazing by captive lesser snow geese

Oecologia, 1993
The effects of grazing by captive goslings of the Lesser Snow Goose on coastal vegetation at La Pérouse By. Manitoba were investigated. Swards of Carex subspathacea, Festuca rubra and Calamagrostis deschampsioides were grazed once for different periods (0-180 min) and regrowth of vegetation determined, based on measurements of standing crop, net above ...

Litter and graminoid biomass accumulation suppresses weedy forbs in grassland restoration

Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2011
Abstract Accumulated biomass of sown species and litter plays an important role in success of restoration projects. We studied the effects of litter and graminoid biomass on species richness and biomass of early colonising forbs in former alfalfa fields sown with seed mixtures containing seeds of native grass species (Festuca pseudovina, Festuca ...

Comparative Demography of Three Graminoids Infected by Systemic, Clavicipitaceous Fungi

Ecology, 1990
Few experimental studies have addressed the demographic consequences of plant—microbe symbiosis in natural communities. In this study the survival, growth, and reproduction of tall fescue grass (Festuca arundinacea), smut grass (Sporobolus poiretii), and green sedge (Cyperus virens) infected by the imperfect fungus Acremonium coenophialum, the ...
