Varieties and Application Models of Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)
2019Sheepgrass is an advantageous forage grass and ecological grass in China. It could adapt well to various types of ecological environment and could grow in cold, dry, saline-alkali, and arid soil. Its underground sprawling horizontal rhizome helps control wind erosion, desertification, water loss, and soil loss; it plays an important role in the ...

Response Mechanism of Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis) to Mowing
2019Studies on sheepgrass mowing mainly focus on the natural mowing grassland, included regenerative growth of the leaves and tillers and compensatory growth after mowing, compensatory photosynthesis after mowing, nitrogen balance between income and expenditure, and the change in phosphorus and potassium, the impact of mowing stage and mowing frequency on ...

Nutrient Absorption and Applications of Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)
2019Grassland fertilization is the optimum measure to increase forage yield and its nutrition. Sheepgrass is an important forage grass in the Eurasian steppe; however, the seed and grass yield of sheepgrass are low under natural conditions. The restoration and reconstruction of degraded sheepgrass grasslands have emerged as an urgent problem.

Absorption and translocation of nitrogen in rhizomes of Leymus chinensis
Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, 2011Abstract Leymus chinensis is a dominant species in the Inner Mongolia steppe, northern China. Plant growth in northern China grassland is often limited by low soil nitrogen availability. The objective of this study is to investigate whether rhizomes of Leymus chinensis

Tripartite Interactions Between Endophytic Fungi, Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi, and Leymus chinensis
Microbial Ecology, 2019Grasses often establish multiple simultaneous symbiotic associations with endophytic fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Many studies have examined pair-wise interactions between plants and endophytic fungi or between plants and AMF, overlooking the interplays among multiple endosymbionts and their combined impacts on hosts. Here, we examined

Absorption and Utilization of Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis) on Water
2019Water is the first abiotic limiting factor influencing the growth of plants. The long-term adaptation of sheepgrass to water conditions shows its different water demands in different periods or growth stages. Sheepgrass is sensitive to different water stresses at different growth stages, and the water requirement of sheepgrass varies with seasonal ...

Advances on Gene Resource Mining in Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)
2019Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel.) has different environmental adaptation and spans different soil and climatic conditions and supports soil and water protection, ecological construction, and animal husbandry, especially in the Northern China. It has excellent genetic resources and is worth digging.

Regrowth strategies of Leymus chinensis in response to different grazing intensities
Ecological Applications, 2020AbstractIn temperate grassland ecosystems, grazing can affect plant growth by foraging, trampling, and excretion. The ability of dominant plant species to regrow after grazing is critical, since it allows the regeneration of photosynthetic tissues to support growth.

Cloning and Function Research of Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis) Genes
2019Sheepgrass is a dominant, perennial forage crop that has extensive plasticity in adapting to various harsh environments, such as high salinity, drought, and cold stresses. Based on the data from 454 high-throughput sequencing (GS FLX) exposure to abiotic stress, a series of stress-responsive genes from sheepgrass have been identified and characterized,

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-Mediated Transformation of the Halophyte Leymus chinensis (Trin.)
Plant Molecular Biology Reporter, 2012An Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation system along with regeneration of transgenic plants of the halophyte Leymus chinensis (Trin.) was developed. A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 containing the binary vector pCAMBIA2300 was used for transformation, along with an Ipomoea batatas 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin (Ib2-Cys prx) gene under the control ...
