NeoBiota 20: 61–79. doi: 10.3897/neobiota.20.6163 Abstract Saccharum spontaneum L. is an invasive grass that has spread extensively in disturbed areas throughout the Panama Canal watershed (PCW), where it has created a #re hazard and inhibited reforestation e$orts. Currently physical removal of aboveground biomass is the primary means of controlling this weed, which is largely ine$ective and does little to inhibit spread of the species. Little is known about reproduction of this species, although it is both rhizomatous and produces abundant seed. Here we report a series of studies looking at some of the basic reproductive mechanisms and strategies utilised by S. spontaneum to provide information to support development of better targeted management strategies.

Edited by Keith H. Remy, Senior Publications Editor. Introduction In 1991, the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station concluded 11 years of research and released for distribution three new and improved turf-type bermudagrasses. These grasses were developed for the citizens of Mississippi to enhance the quality of lawns, golf courses, and sports turf facilities. All three bermudagrasses are now commercially available and can be purchased from members of the Mississippi Sod Producers Association. MS-Choice is a very dark green, compact, leafy, prostrate turf for use on sports fields, home lawns, and golf tees and fairways. MS-Express is a medium green, robust, leafy, compressed turf for use on golf and tennis greens. MS-Pride is a dark green, dense, leafy, upright turf for use on home lawns, and on golf tees and fairways (Krans et al., 1995 a, b, c).

  • Sod-Based Rotations: a Proven Old Practice to Improve Soil Productivity
    Soil Quality – Agronomy Technical Note No. 18 Soil Quality Institute Sod-Based Rotations: A Proven Old Practice to Improve Soil Productivity Historical overview Sod-based rotations are those that alternate sod-forming grasses and legumes with row crops and cereal grains. The grass and/or legumes should break up the row crop cycle for more than 1 year. Farmers in many countries, including France and England, have learned over centuries that grass-based systems are essential for maintaining the long-term productivity of soils (Albrecht, 1938). The most important benefits of sod relate to the accumulation of organic matter facilitated by the extensive root systems of perennial grasses. In fact, the productivity of sod-based virgin soils is typically associated with high levels of organic matter. As American settlers spread west, they cleared trees and sod and cultivated the land. The result of this clearing and plowing was the loss of one of our most valuable resources—soil organic matter. Many long-term studies in the United States have documented trends of organic matter losses on agricultural land (NRCS Soil Quality Institute, Technical Note No. 18 2001). Cultivated cropland typically has only 50% of the organic matter of soils that support native vegetation. These same studies show May 2004 significant advantages of grass-based systems over continuous cropping This is the eighteenth in a for maintaining or increasing the content of organic matter.

This monograph is a detailed research about this crop, and it will address its ecology, biology, propagation and management, and emerging products and market. Ecology discusses matters such as its distributional contex, affinities, origin, ideal elevation and climate, geology and soils, and its vegetation components. The biology talks about the crop’s chromosome complement, its life cycle, the process of flowering and fruiting, and reproduction.

  • Regrassing Cool-Season Putting Greens with Sod an Old Concept with a New Twist Sparks Renewed Interest in Regrassing Greens for Northern Golf Facilities in the U.S
    Regrassing Cool-Season Putting Greens With Sod An old concept with a new twist sparks renewed interest in regrassing greens for northern golf facilities in the U.S. and Canada. BY JIM SKORULSKI egrassing putting greens was once looked upon as an inter- R esting concept that was suited primarily for high-budget golf facilities with members willing to tolerate the process. Convincing northern golfers of the merits of shutting down their golf course in early to mid-August and then opening the following spring to provide a monostand of creeping bentgrass was never an easy sell. Recently, however, there has been renewed interest in regrassing and rebuilding cool-season putting greens — and for good reason! New bentgrass cultivars are durable and provide excellent playing conditions over a wide range of weather and moisture conditions. Annual bluegrass (Poa annua), on the other hand, is far less reliable in that it is highly vulnerable to annual bluegrass weevil and disease pathogens, com- bined with poor heat and cold tolerance.

Received: 7 July 2019; Accepted: 2 August 2019; Published: 5 August 2019 Abstract: Polyploid Saccharum with complex genomes hindered the progress of sugarcane improvement, while their chloroplast genomes are much smaller and simpler. Chloroplast (cp), the vital organelle, is the site of plant photosynthesis, which also evolves other functions, such as tolerance to environmental stresses. In this study, the cp genome of two sugarcane ancestors Saccharum officinarum and S. spontaneum were sequenced, and genome comparative analysis between these two species was carried out, together with the photosynthetic ability. The length is 141,187 bp for S. officinarum and that is 7 bp longer than S. spontaneum, with the same GC content (38.44%) and annotated gene number (134), 13 with introns among them. There is a typical tetrad structure, including LSC, SSC, IRb and IRa. Of them, LSC and IRa/IRb are 18 bp longer and 6 bp shorter than those in S. spontaneum (83,047 bp and 22,795 bp), respectively, while the size of SSC is same (12,544 bp).

Chandranath1 1Ph.D. Scholars, 1Professor, Department of Agronomy, College of Agriculture, Dharwad, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, Karnataka 2Subject Matter Specialist Agronomy, KVK Mudigere, Karnataka *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 25.02.2017 | Revised: 7.03.2017 | Accepted: 10.03.2017 ABSTRACT Sugarcane (Saccharum complex hybrid), an important agro-industrial crop in the country, plays a pivotal role in national economy by contributing 1.9 per cent to gross domestic product. However, plateauing yield level, declining factor productivity, increasing production cost, slashing sugar prices in international market and decreasing profitability in recent years indeed pose the real concerns before cane growers and mill owners. These necessitated the intensification of sugarcane-based production system through diversification in space and time to meet the multiple needs of cane farmers and maintain long-term soil health. Sugarcane characteristically widely spaced, initially slow growing, of long duration and one-time income generating crop - lends ample scope for intercropping with short-duration, high-value and mid- season income generating crops for household nutrition and economic security, especially of small and marginal cane growers. Intercropping is an age old practice of growing two or more crops simultaneously on the same piece of land.
