The aim of this study was to follow the response to drought stress in a Poa pratensis canopy exposed to various levels of soil moisture deficit. We tracked the changes in the canopy reflectance (450–2450 nm) and retrieved vegetation properties (Leaf Area Index (LAI), leaf chlorophyll content (Cab), leaf water content (Cw), leaf dry matter content (Cdm) and senescent material (Cs)) during a drou...

In a complex soil environment, competitive and environmental factors interact with individual traits to influence plant’s root growth patterns ability compete for resources. Here, we examine how of focal plant, Plantago lanceolata L., responds resource heterogeneity presence two neighbor species, Centaurea jacea L.and Poa pratensis L. A full factorial experiment tested the effects nutrient hete...

Over the pastdecade, particular attention has been paid to studies of chemical composition medical plants identify possible negative consequences using raw plant material polluted with heavy metals for production drugs. In our study, we analyzed growing in impact area Novocherkassk power station. Specifically, Artemisia austriaca, Poa pratensis and Elytrigia repenswere examined analysis.The con...

This study was conducted to investigate effects of different levels ammonium nitrate (33% N) dose (0, 50 and 100 g m-2) on morphological quality traits 3 commonly cultivated turfgrass species (Lolium perenne ‘TOPGUN’, Festuca rubra ‘SERGEİ’ Poa pratensis ‘AVALANCHE’) which are widely preferred in grass mixtures prepared for green areas Çanakkale (Turkey). Fertilization treatments had positive p...

Fires will become an increasingly frequent perturbation even under the conditions of mild climate zone and interfere with agricultural landscape. Fire is a natural phenomenon, depending on ecosystems, vegetation may develop contribute to occurrence spread fire. Vegetation sour cherry orchard located in climatically dry South Moravian Region, Czech Republic (CR), was evaluated. assessment perfor...

Pooideae species. While for several species the most important allergens (group 1 and group 5) have been identified, other allergens have either not been identified or sequence data are still missing. We have used mass spectrometry (MS) together with genetic and immunological methods to identify allergens in various grass pollen extracts. Methods: Pollen extracts of 6 different grass species (P...

Tile drainage and surface runoff are major pathways for pollution of water resources by agricultural nutrients chemicals. Little is known, however, the amounts carbon entry into from land. This paper evaluates dissolved organic (DOC) inorganic (DIC) losses in tile a Brookston clay loam after more than half century monoculture maize ( Zea mays L.), continuous bluegrass sod Poa Pratensis maize-oa...

Poa pratensis L. is a forage and turf grass species well adapted to a wide range of mesic to moist habitats. Due to its genome complexity little is known regarding evolution, genome composition and intraspecific phylogenetic relationships of this species. In the present study we investigated the morphological and genetic diversity of 33 P. pratensis accessions from 23 different countries using ...
