Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciaefolia Scop.) is adapted to the calcareous soils of the southern Great Plains and can provide early season forage that does not induce bloating; however, little is known about performance by ruminants grazing sainfoin. Our objective was to determine the effect of plant growth stage and grazing pressures on potential animal production from sainfoin as predicted from ene...

Micropropagation is an effective way to preserve the gene pool of threatened plants. This study devoted mathematical modeling nutrient media and effect mT (meta-topoline) on multiplication shoots Hedysarum grandiflorum, Hyssopus cretaceus, Matthiola fragrans in vitro comparison with benzylaminopurine (BAP) kinetin (KT). Initiation was performed MS medium 0.5 mg/L BAP. For multiplication, MS, B5...

The paper summarizes the results of a long-term introduction study rare alpine plant Hedysarum theinum Krasnob., which is widely used in medicine. We found that species demonstrates sufficiently high seed productivity with adequate agrotechnical care under conditions. Nevertheless, there were cases single lack fruiting, cannot be considered reaction to different ecological conditions since thes...
