MOSER University of Nebraska Lincoln, Nebraska The bromegrasses belong to the genus Bromus of which there are some 100 spe­ cies (Gould & Shaw, 1983). The genus includes both annual and perennial cool­ season species adapted to temperate climates. Hitchcock (1971) described 42 bro­ megrass species found in the USA and Canada of which 22 were native (Gould & Shaw, 1983). Bromus is the Greek word for oat and refers to the panicle inflo­ rescence characteristic of the genus. The bromegrasses are C3 species (Krenzer et aI., 1975; Waller & Lewis, 1979). Of all the bromegrass species, only two are cultivated for permanent pas­ tures to any extent in North America.
