Cbeatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) has become the dominant species over large areas of rangeland in the Great Basin region of the western United States. Rapid germination at low temperature may contribute to the competitive success of cheatgrass in areas formerly dominated by native sagebrush and bunchgrass species. The objectives of this study were to determine whether seed priming could be used ...

Abstract. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of topographical factors on the classification of grassland plant communities in the rangelands of Ghorkhud, Northern Khorasan Province, Iran. For sampling, land units were specified. A floristic list was prepared using minimal area method based on the nested plot (Braun-Blanquet method). 116 10m2 furrows were selected. Within e...

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 ...

festuca ovina l. is a hyperaccumulating plant which has aroused considerableinterest with respect to its possible use for phytoremediation of contaminated soils. thisstudy has been conducted to evaluate the potentials of f. ovina l. to serve as aphytoremediation plant in the cleaning up of cu in the polluted soils and to identifyextraction efficiency of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (edta) ...
