The genus Trifolium L. belonging to family Fabaceae is represented by about 255 species in the world. Two classifications based on sections or subgenus are commonly used researchers taxonomically evaluation of Trifolium. However, there still some confusing and complex situations taxonomy genus. For this reason, internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions between rDNA genes nrDNA were examined for...

Subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L. cv Woogenellup) and soft chess grass (Bromus mollis L. cv Blando) were grown in monocultures with (15)NH(4)Cl added to the soil to study nitrogen movement during regrowth following shoot removal. Four clipping treatments were imposed. Essentially all available (15)N was assimilated from the soil prior to the first shoot harvest. Measurements of tot...

Literature data from experiments with lactating dairy cows offered silage-based diets was reviewed to evaluate the effects of the grassland legume species Trifolium repens (WC, white clover), Trifolium pratense (RC, red clover) and Medicago sativa (M, lucerne) on feed intake, milk production and milk quality. Seven data sets were created to compare grass silage (G) with grassland legumes in gen...

Introduction Conclusions References

Isothiocyanates and substituted pyrazoles were combined to form a series of novel isothiocyanates with highly effective herbicidal activity. The target compounds were analyzed by elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, EI-MS and IR spectroscopy. The synthesized compounds, particularly compounds 3-1 and 3-7, exhibited good herbicidal activities against four weeds. The EC(50) values of compound 3-1 against E...

Several studies have addressed plant primary physiological responses (gas exchange responses) to insect herbivory. However, relatively few plant species have been examined. It is unknown whether responses to leaf-mass removal by insects vary among plant families and species. Within the legumes, only alfalfa,Medicago sativaL., and soybean,Glycine max (L.)Merrill, have been examined. The goal of ...
