Bacterial community evaluation during establishment of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) in soil contaminated with pyrene.
A greenhouse study was conducted to monitor microbial community dynamics related to contaminant concentration and plant growth during the phytoremediation of pyrene. Soil microbial communities in both bulk and rhizosphere soils were assessed using a polymerase chain reaction--denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). However, no correlation between pyrene concentration and bacterial c...
متن کاملControl of Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense) in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) stands
Johnsongrass is a nonnative invasive species introduced as a forage crop from the Mediterranean region (Miller and Miller 1999). This perennial species has become naturalized and is found in 47 of the 50 United States (Alaska, Minnesota, and Maine being the exceptions) (USDA 2004). Johnsongrass has become problematic along roadsides in Kentucky due to its aggressive and prolific nature and rapi...
متن کاملLead Accumulation by Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) Grown on a Lead-Contaminated Soil
Phytoextraction is gaining acceptance as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly phytoremediation strategy for reducing toxic metal levels from contaminated soils. Cognizant of the potential of this phytoremediation technique as an alternative to expensive engineering-based remediation technologies, experiments were conducted to evaluate the suitability of some plants as phytoextraction s...
متن کاملEffect of humic acid and mulches on characteristics of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)
Application[Editor 321] of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality especially in arid andsemi-arid climate zones. However, limited number of studies have investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid (HA) and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its p...
متن کاملNovel Endophyte-Infected Tall Fescue
Tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub) is a cool season perennial grass that fills a critical forage produc-tion gap in the Southeast and is the predominant forage crop in much of the U.S. In fact, this species is the most widely used grass in improved U.S. pastures, occupying more than 36 million acres. Its popularity is related to establishment ease, drought tolerance, excellent graz...
