Experiments were conducted under field and greenhouse conditions
to investigate the effects of chlorpropham (isopropyl mchlorocarbanilate)
on vegetative and reproductive development in
Chewings fescue (Festuca rubra L. subsp. commutata Gaud.) and to
determine the time of induction and initiation under natural conditions.
Chewings fescue was found to be very susceptible...
Lime was applied at different rates to filbert trees grown in
containers in an acid soil. As lime application rate increased, the
leaf Mn and extractable soil Mn were significantly reduced. In
control trees leaf Mn was over 1300 ppm, but no growth reduction or
Mn toxicity symptoms were found....
Three genotypes of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.
cultivar Fawn and four genotypes from the cultivar Fortune were
used as parents to form 15 of a possible 21 single crosses to study
the heritability of certain agronomic characteristics. The Fawn
variety is considered to be tall in growth habit, vigorous...
