Exploration of flowering control in Lolium perenne L. [PDF]
End of project reportFlowering or heading in Lolium perenne (perennial ryegrass) is induced by a period of vernalization, followed by long days at higher temperatures.

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 ...

Chemical control strategies for Poa annua in managed turfgrass systems
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.

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.

Assessing forage mass using smartphone imagery for cereal rye under grazing conditions in Nebraska
Abstract Managing grazing efficiency requires reliable and practical tools to estimate forage mass. Traditional methods like clipping, though accurate, are time consuming and labor intensive. In this study, two imaging tools, Canopeo and the Crop Canopy Image Analyzer (CCIA), were evaluated for their efficacy in estimating the forage mass of cereal rye

A note on the comparison of three near infrared reflectance spectroscopy calibration strategies for assessing herbage quality of ryegrass [PDF]
peer-reviewedPerennial ryegrass (n = 1,836), Italian ryegrass (n = 137) and hybrid ryegrass (n = 103) herbage was taken from harvested plots from the Irish national variety evaluation scheme and analysed for in vitro dry matter digestibility, water ...

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
