The effects of soil drenches with systemic fungicides on viability of clavicipitaceous anamorphic endophytes, non-choke inducing endosymbiotic fungi of the genus Neotyphodium that systemically infect grasses, were tested in endophyte-infected seedlings of Hordeum brevisubulatum subsp. violaceum, Lolium perenne and Festuca arundinacea germplasm. None of the endophytes of these grasses were sensi...

Background. Environmental pollution with toxic compounds poses a danger to nature and humans. Various technologies for soil purification from metals are being developed. Objective. The work was aimed study the possibility of lawn grass using Cr(VI). Methods. Plant seeds (Festuca rubra L. 45%, Festuca arundinacea Schreb. 25%, Lolium perenne 20%, Poa pratensis 10%) were sown in container at 24 °C...

This study was conducted in laboratory conditions to determine the response of some cool season turf grass species (Lolium perenne Caddieshack, Lolium multiflorum Jivet, Poa pratensis Evora, Festuca rubra Rassinante, arundinacea Starlet, ovina Ridu) different salt doses during germination period. In study, 8 NaCl doses, 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210 mM, were applied, rate (%), time plumula ...
