Root biomass and shoot to root ratios of perennial forage crops in eastern Canada
Bolinder, M. A., Angers, D. A., Bélanger, G., Michaud, R. et Laverdière, M. R. 2002. Root biomass and shoot to root ratios of perennial forage crops in eastern Canada. Can. J. Plant Sci. 82: 731–737. Shoot to root ratios (S:R) at peak standing crop are commonly used to estimate the annual crop residue C inputs to the soil from the root biomass left in the soil at harvest. However, root biomass ...
متن کاملImproved Winter Hardiness In TurfType Perennial Ryegrass?
The market for turf-type perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) continues to grow with over $70 million in seed sales in 1994. Breeders in private companies are capitalizing on this increasing ryegrass popularity by continuing to make improvements in turf quality traits such as color, density, texture, mowability and disease resistance. However, all current improved turf-type cultivars do not have...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cross-fertilization in Forage Crops
In the improvement of forage crop varieties knowledge of~e .extent of cross-fertilization is of value for (1) de~g the extent and randomness of crossing in breedmg procedures, (2) estimating varietal changes due to contamination and mechanical mixtures, and (3) evaluating effects of cross,fertilization in the development and production of synthetic and hybrid combinations. Genetic markers can a...
متن کاملGenetic Architecture of Winter Hardiness and Frost Tolerance in Triticale
Abiotic stress experienced by autumn-sown crops during winter is of great economic importance as it can have a severe negative impact on yield. In this study, we investigated the genetic architecture of winter hardiness and frost tolerance in triticale. To this end, we used a large mapping population of 647 DH lines phenotyped for both traits in combination with genome-wide marker data. Employi...
متن کاملThe Future of Alfalfa and Forage Crops
A diversity of forage species and forage ecosystems suited to different management practices exists in the United States. The future of cultivar development in forages includes the new and evolving areas of genomic and transgenic technologies. Genomic research gained momentum with the publication of the complete DNA sequence of the human genome and has since expanded to plant species including ...
