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...

The fate of urea applied to Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) turf was studied over a 2-yr period using a combination of intact monolith lysimeters and small plots. Soil type was a Marlette fine sandy loam (fine-loamy, mixed mesic Glossoboric Hapludalfs). Urea was applied at a rate of 196 kg N ha~ yr~ in five equal applications of 39.2 kg N ha-i, using two application schedules. Treatments ...

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...

Cold deacclimation sensitivity has been cited as an important factor associated with winterkill susceptibility of annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.). Increased potential for this species attributed to higher metabolic activities in response warm winter temperatures. We hypothesized that using plant growth regulators inhibit turfgrass and metabolism during months could potentially suppress prematur...

Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is an important cool-season perennial grass species used as forage and turf, and in conservation plantings. There are three morphotypes in hexaploid tall fescue: Continental, Mediterranean and Rhizomatous. This study was conducted to develop morphotype-specific molecular markers to distinguish Continental and Mediterranean tall fescues, and establish th...

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...
