Magnesium Concentration in Agropyron desertorum Fertilized with Mg and 1st H. F. Mayland and D. L. Grunes2 of humid pastures with N and K often increases the i id of tetany 3 4 nc ence ( , 4). Grass tetany, a Mg deficiency in ruminants, is responsible for large economic losses throughout temperate regions. Significant livestock losses occur in the semiarid western United States primarily when l...

flow cytometry (fcm) was used to determine the ploidy levels of six different populationsof agropyron cristatum (l.) gaertn. (poaceae) in iran, using a diploid cultivated barley (hordeumvulgare l.) as an internal reference. according to flow cytometric data, tetraploid (2n = ± 28) andhexaploid (2n = ± 42) levels were detected among the examined populations and these results weresupported by chr...

The research presents the problem of liquidation dumps substandard raw materials zeolite-containing rocks Holinsky deposit, measures for reclamation disturbed lands. most effective way to restore ecosystems is renaturation. Time intervals succession are considered. Renaturation lands consists 6 stages. Possible dominant plants proposed options considered in detail: Stipa lessingiana, Poa platen...

Biogeochemical processes in the rhizosphere can significantly alter interactions between contaminants and soil minerals. In this study, several strains of bacteria that exude aluminum (Al)-chelating compounds were isolated from the rhizosphere of crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum) collected from the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). We examined the effects of exudates from bacteria in the...

Creation of wheat-alien disomic addition lines and localization of desirable genes on alien chromosomes are important for utilization of these genes in genetic improvement of common wheat. In this study, wheat-Agropyron cristatum derivative line 5113 was characterized by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq), and was demonstrated to be ...

A 1.0 kb region of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene from the greenbug aphid, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), was sequenced for 24 field collected clones from non-cultivated and cultivated hosts. Maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony and neighbour-joining phylogenies were estimated for these clones, plus 12 previously sequenced clones. All three tests produced trees with identi...

Abstract. Purpose. The research is aimed at developing methods for creating highly productive and nutritious pasture agrophytocenoses, adapted to the extreme conditions of arid zone Northern Caspian region. Methods. paper provides an assessment productivity perennial one-species (Agropyron) poly-species (Agropyron, Eutoria, Kochia) agrophytocenoses a five-year period their vegetation, depending...
