The relative influence of above and below ground competition on the growth and survival of ryegrass seedlings transplanted into a hill country pasture : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University [PDF]
In many pasture improvement programmes, for example oversowing in hill country, seedling survival is influenced by competition from the existing vegetation. Competition between pasture plants occurs when resources are limited and may be for factors above

2n+n Hybridization of Apomictic Paspalum dilatatum with Diploid Paspalum Species [PDF]
Common dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum) is an apomictic pentaploid (2n=5x=50) of hybrid origin with irregular meiosis and with the genome formula IIJJX. The I and J genomes are homologous to those of diploid P. intermedium and P. jurgensii, respectively, but the source of the X genome is unknown.

Abstract Introduction Temporary ponds in the Mediterranean climate have a high conservation value, but many have been severely destroyed or degraded. Pond restoration and new pond creation have been engaged widely. Evaluations of the success of such operations are generally carried out over 10–15 years and show divergent results over this timeframe. In

Peanut response following soybean grown full‐season or double‐cropped after wheat in North Carolina
Abstract Including soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in the previous cropping cycle can adversely affect peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yield by increasing disease incidence and populations of plant‐parasitic nematodes in the soil. The impact of double‐cropping wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and soybean versus full‐season soybean (referred to as the soybean
