Vernalization Mediated Changes in the Lolium perenne Transcriptome [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Vernalization is a key requirement for the induction of flowering in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). The transcriptome of two genotypes with contrasting vernalization requirement was studied during primary (vernalization and short day conditions) and secondary induction (higher temperature and long day conditions) using an RNA-Seq approach ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In natural environments, plants compete with neighbouring plants for resources such as light, water and nutrients. To detect neighbours, plants have evolved mechanisms that are poorly understood at the molecular‐genetic level. This study examined the impact of competition on the growth and reproductive success of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in ...

Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

Chemical control strategies for Poa annua in managed turfgrass systems
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Poa annua L. is a widespread and persistent weed in managed turfgrass systems, exhibiting both annual and short‐lived perennial growth habits. Effective management requires an integrated approach, with chemical herbicides remaining a primary tool.

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Seed moisture content (SMC) is the most reliable indicator of seed maturity and the optimal harvest timing in grass seed crops. Current SMC testing methodologies used in grass seed crops are slow or inaccurate, making it difficult to make timely harvest decisions.

15Nitrogen uptake from shallow- versus deep-rooted plants in multi-species mixtures and monoculture grassland [PDF]
, 2010 Only few studies have explored the importance of functional diversity in temperate agricultural grasslands in relation to nitrogen (N) uptake. This study investigates the consequence of growing deep-rooted plants together with grass-clover mixtures in ...

Forage herbs improve mineral composition of grassland herbage [PDF]
, 2011 Provision of an adequate mineral supply in the diets of ruminants fed mainly on grassland herbage can present a challenge if mineral concentrations are suboptimal for animal nutrition.

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Sod grown on plastic (SOP) is a sod established on a thin layer of growing medium atop a plastic sheet. It can be harvested with minimal damage to the roots, thereby reducing transplant shock. Kentucky bluegrass (KBG; Poa pratensis L.) is a commonly used cool‐season turfgrass species in sod production and sports fields. However, KBG is slow to
