Control of Italian Ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) in Wheat (Triticum aestivum) with Several Postemergence Herbicides

Field experiments were conducted in Virginia in 2000 and 2001 to investigate responses of wheat and diclofop-methyl-sensitive and –resistant Italian ryegrass to POST applications of several experimental and registered herbicides. The experimental herbicide combination AE F130060 03 was as effective as diclofop-methyl and more effective than chlorsulfuron plus metsulfuron, chlorsulfuron plus met...

Comparative proteomic analyses reveal the proteome response to short-term drought in Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum)

Drought is a major abiotic stress that impairs growth and productivity of Italian ryegrass. Comparative analysis of drought responsive proteins will provide insight into molecular mechanism in Lolium multiflorum drought tolerance. Using the iTRAQ-based approach, proteomic changes in tolerant and susceptible lines were examined in response to drought condition. A total of 950 differentially accu...

Biomonitoring of Air Pollution by Trace Elements Using Italian Ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L. ‘Lema’)

Results of investigations and assessment of air pollution by cadmium, lead, and arsenic using Italian ryegrass are presented in this paper. The experiment was carried out in the 2011 growing season in Poznań city and surroundings areas. Lolium multiflorum L. ‘Lema’ exhibits several properties useful for active biomonitoring of air pollution. Plants were exposed at sites varying in environmental...

Comparative study of Cd uptake and tolerance of two Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) cultivars

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic heavy metals and is difficult to be removed from contaminated soil and water. Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), as an energy crop, exhibits a valuable potential to develop Cd polluted sites due to its use as a biofuel rather than as food and forage. Previously, via a screening for Cd-tolerant ryegrass, the two most extreme cultivars (IdyII and Harukaze...
