Hosking S C SALTdeck Trifolium fragiferum LEGUME bract 1.5cm bracts Trifolium pratense, Red Clover inflated bladder-like calyx Sustainable STRAWBERRY CLOVER Grazing on SALTdeck Series Trifolium fragiferum Saline Land © AWI & CRC Salinity 2006 Family: Fabaceae. L6 Description: Prostrate creeping perennial with stems to 50 cm long, usually rooting from nodes. Leaves with 3 leaflets, margins with small teeth. Stipules to 1.5 cm long, spear-shaped, membranous (see photo). Flowers whitish to pink. Seed pod with 1–2 brown seeds. Flowers spring to summer. Key features: Leaflets borne on stalks of equal length. Leaves and flowers on long stalks. May be confused with Red Clover Trifolium pratense which has large bracts around the base of the flowerhead whereas Strawberry Clover does not (see photo). Value: Grows readily in waterlogged, poorly drained, saline and alkaline soils. Is adapted to pH ranging from 4.8–8.0 (CaCl2). As a fodder plant it may form dense stands and has performed better than Lucerne and White Clover in a variety of soils in southern Victoria where it persisted five seasons under grazing. Salinity and waterlogging tolerance: Strawberry Clover is one of the most waterlogging tolerant legumes available. It shows moderate tolerance to salinity and in some areas it can be a good companion legume for Tall Wheatgrass Thinopyrum ponticum. Notes: Native to Europe, now variably spread over the world in temperate latitudes. References: Pasture Legumes for Temperate Farming Systems (Ute Guide), 2004.

MELVIN USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Central National Technology Support Center 501 W. Felix Street, Bldg. 23 Fort Worth, Texas 76115-3404 ABSTRACT The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) administers the National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) for the United States (U.S.) and its territories. Responsibility for the NWPL was transferred to the Corps from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in 2006. From 2006 to 2012 the Corps led an interagency effort to update the list in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the FWS, and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), culminating in the publication of the 2012 NWPL. In 2013 and 2014 geographic ranges and nomenclature were updated. This paper presents the fourth update of the list under Corps administration. During the current update, the indicator status of 1689 species was reviewed. A total of 306 ratings of 186 species were changed during the update.

  • Trifolium Fragiferum L.); Implications for Its Use in Mildly Saline Soils in Southern Australian Farming Systems
    Variation in morphology, salinity and waterlogging tolerance, and resource allocation in strawberry clover (Trifolium fragiferum L.); implications for its use in mildly saline soils in southern Australian farming systems. Kathi McDonald BSc (Agric) Hons This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Western Australia School of Plant Biology 2008 2 SUMMARY In southern Australian farming systems the replacement of deep-rooted perennial native vegetation with shallow-rooted annual crops and pastures has resulted in rising groundwater tables and an increased incidence of dryland salinity. It has been suggested that to address this issue by restoring hydrological balance, large areas of agricultural land need to be vegetated with perennial plants. One of the most agriculturally productive ways to do this is to introduce perennial pastures, both into upslope groundwater “recharge” areas and low-lying waterlogging and salinity prone “discharge” areas. This thesis examines the perennial legume strawberry clover (Trifolium fragiferum L.) in respect to variability of available germplasm, adaptive strategies and growth habits, and tolerance to waterlogging and salinity. The aim of this research was to gain insight into the suitability of strawberry clover for further development for broader use in discharge areas in southern Australian farming systems. Genetic variation within and between naturalised populations of strawberry clover cv. Palestine collected from five locations in Western Australia was studied in a common garden experiment. Plants from seed collected at each site were grown as spaced plants and 13 morphological traits were measured. Within-population variation was very high presumably due to the outcrossing nature of strawberry clover.
