Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) emergence under different residue management practices in perennial ryegrass and determination of resistant and susceptible annual bluegrass germination under controlled temperature and moisture

Creator:

Schuster, Matthew D.

Abstract:

With the loss of field burning the amount of crop residue that remains in perennial ryegrass fields has increased. As the amount of crop residue remaining in the field increases so does annual bluegrass. This has resulted in the increased use of herbicides to control annual bluegrass. However, this increased...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Matthew D. Schuster for the degree
Crop rotation effects on the seed bank and population dynamics of annual bluegrass (Poa annua)

Creator:

Sardar, Farid M.

Abstract:

Field studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of crop rotation on annual bluegrass plant population dynamics, seed rain, and seed bank in 1996 and 1997 at two sites. Growth-chamber studies were conducted to determine the influence of the mother plant environment on annual bluegrass germination. The change in population,...
