CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE United States National Herbarium Volume XII, Part 3 TXE&3 OF AMERICAN GRASSES . / A STUDY OF THE AMERICAN SPECIES OF GRASSES DESCRIBED BY LINNAEUS, GRONOVIUS, SLOANE, SWARTZ, AND MICHAUX By A. S. HITCHCOCK z rit erV ^-C?^ 1 " WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE 1908 BULLETIN OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM Issued June 18, 1908 ii PREFACE The accompanying paper, by Prof. A. S. Hitchcock, Systematic Agrostologist of the United States Department of Agriculture, u entitled Types of American grasses: a study of the American species of grasses described by Linnaeus, Gronovius, Sloane, Swartz, and Michaux," is an important contribution to our knowledge of American grasses. It is regarded as of fundamental importance in the critical sys- tematic investigation of any group of plants that the identity of the species described by earlier authors be determined with certainty. Often this identification can be made only by examining the type specimen, the original description being inconclusive. Under the American code of botanical nomenclature, which has been followed by the author of this paper, "the nomenclatorial t}rpe of a species or subspecies is the specimen to which the describer originally applied the name in publication." The procedure indicated by the American code, namely, to appeal to the type specimen when the original description is insufficient to identify the species, has been much misunderstood by European botanists. It has been taken to mean, in the case of the Linnsean herbarium, for example, that a specimen in that herbarium bearing the same name as a species described by Linnaeus in his Species Plantarum must be taken as the type of that species regardless of all other considerations.

Colonial and Highland Bentgrass (Agrostis Sp.) Tom Cook Assoc. Professor Hort. Oregon State University Introduction: in Areas We
Colonial and Highland bentgrass (Agrostis sp.) Tom Cook Assoc. Professor Hort. Oregon State University Introduction: In areas west of the Cascade Mountains from Vancouver, BC as far south as Grants Pass, OR and along the coast clear down to the San Francisco, CA area, bentgrasses are arguably the most important grasses used for turf. Ironically, they have rarely been knowingly planted since approximately the mid-1970’s. Today, bentgrasses most often come into lawns as contaminants in soil and in some cases in seed or sod mixtures. Despised by the seed trade and many people involved in commercial landscape maintenance, bentgrasses are uniquely suited to the mild climate and consistently out compete even the most elite cultivars of perennial ryegrass, fine fescues, Tall fescue, and Kentucky bluegrass. Like it or not bentgrass is here to stay! Taxonomy and history: The taxonomy of bentgrasses is complicated and confusing because it involves numerous species and interspecies hybrids that are very similar in appearance. To make matters worse, early plantings dating back to frontier days were composed of mixtures of species brought to America from Europe. Today in any stand of bentgrass you are likely to find three or four different species. In A.S. Hitchcocks “Manual of the Grasses of the United States” (1971) first published in 1935, he describes Colonial bentgrass as Agrostis tenuis Sibth. In his own words, “This species appears not to be native in America; it has been referred to A. capillaris L., a distinct species in Europe.” The wording in this description is odd and it is not clear if he means that Agrostis tenuis is in fact Agrostis capillaris or is a distinct species that is related to Agrostis capillaris.

Indeed, a good looking lawn is as important to the total landscape picture as a shined pair of dress shoes is to formal attire. The two just naturally go together. In response to the many inquiries about home lawn care and problems, the intent of this NDSU Extension publication is to assist the homeowner first in identifying these problems and, secondly, providing advice on actions they can take to solve these problems. Our initial emphasis will be to adjust or modify cultural practices to minimize or, in some cases, eliminate the pest. We also provide options for chemical use in case the problem has not been solved. Each author has contributed to this publication based on his or her expertise: Alan Zuk on typical diseases observed on home lawns, Janet Knodel on insect problems; and Ron Smith in dealing with distractive weeds. In surveying the retail market, we noted the wide availability of combination products, with herbicides and fertilizer being the most common.

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF (Systematic Botany) Curt Gerald Carlbom for the Ph.D. in Botany (Name) (Degree) (Major') Date thesis is presented July 28, 1966 Title A BIOSYSTEMATIC STUDY OF SOME NORTH AMERICAN SPECIES OF AGROSTIS L. AND PODAGROSTIS (GRISEB.) SCRIBN. & MERR. Privacy Abstract approved Redacted for (Major professor) A taxonomic investigation was made of 24 taxa be- longing to the section Trichodium (Michx.) Trin., of Agrostis, and the genus Podagrostis. Experimental methods were employed, including: uniform garden culture of trans- plants and plants grown from seeds collected in natural populations; breeding studies; physiological and pheno- logical investigations; cytological studies; ecological studies in natural populations. Herbarium exsiccatae including the type material of most of the 24 taxa were studied. In addition, compara- the tive morphological studies were made of several of taxa in their natural habitats and again in the uniform experimental garden. Twenty -four taxa are recognized in this study. Gen- eric and species descriptions, distributional maps, gen- eric and species keys, photographs of 23 taxa including several types, and photomicrographs of meiotic and mitotic figures of 12 taxa are presented. In addition, the vari- ous taxa are discussed individually, and the criteria and concepts used for species delimitation in Agrostis and Podagrostis are presented. Chromosome counts of nine species and two varieties of Agrostis and three species of Podagrostis are reported for the first time. Additional counts of other native taxa confirm earlier published counts. Eleven of the 19 species of Agrostis are hexaploids, four species are known to be tetraploids and two species are octoploids.

Institute SERBIA, Belgrade, Center for Agricultural and Technological Research, Zaječar, Serbia and Montenegro Abstract: Review and results of research focusing on genetic resources and improvement of forage plants in Serbia and Montenegro (SMN) are presented in this paper. SMN is extremely rich on natural (native/autohtonous) genetic resources of different forage species. Great number of cultivars of perennial grass and leguminous plants as well as annual forage plants were created in SMN as a result of research work carried out over several decades. Domestic cultivars of forage plants have first of all high productive potential for yield of forage and quality of dry matter. Keywords: forage plants, genetic resources, improvement, cultivars. 4 Acta Agriculturae Serbica, Vol.X, 19 (2005) 3-16 Introduction Majority of forage plants was created using biodiversity and genetic variability of native populations of SMN. First results in collecting of perennial grasses and leguminous plants in our country which were included in creation of gene bank of forage species were obtained in 1987, this is Gene bank of plant species of former Yugoslavia (BBG).

Research on Spontaneous and Subspontaneous Flora of Botanical Garden "Vasile Fati" Jibou
Volume 19(2), 176- 189, 2015 JOURNAL of Horticulture, Forestry and Biotechnology www.journal-hfb.usab-tm.ro Research on spontaneous and subspontaneous flora of Botanical Garden "Vasile Fati" Jibou Szatmari P-M*.1,, Căprar M. 1 1) Biological Research Center, Botanical Garden “Vasile Fati” Jibou, Wesselényi Miklós Street, No. 16, 455200 Jibou, Romania; *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract The research presented in this paper had the purpose of Key words inventory and knowledge of spontaneous and subspontaneous plant species of Botanical Garden "Vasile Fati" Jibou, Salaj, Romania. Following systematic Jibou Botanical Garden, investigations undertaken in the botanical garden a large number of spontaneous flora, spontaneous taxons were found from the Romanian flora (650 species of adventive and vascular plants and 20 species of moss). Also were inventoried 38 species of subspontaneous plants, adventive plants, permanently established in Romania and 176 vascular plant floristic analysis, Romania species that have migrated from culture and multiply by themselves throughout the garden. In the garden greenhouses were found 183 subspontaneous species and weeds, both from the Romanian flora as well as tropical plants introduced by accident. Thus the total number of wild species rises to 1055, a large number compared to the occupied area. Some rare spontaneous plants and endemic to the Romanian flora (Galium abaujense, Cephalaria radiata, Crocus banaticus) were found. Cultivated species that once migrated from culture, accommodated to environmental conditions and conquered new territories; standing out is the Cyrtomium falcatum fern, once escaped from the greenhouses it continues to develop on their outer walls. Jibou Botanical Garden is the second largest exotic species can adapt and breed further without any botanical garden in Romania, after "Anastasie Fătu" care [11].
