  • Plant Fact Sheet for Annual Hairgrass (Deschampsia Danthonioides)
    Plant Fact Sheet ANNUAL HAIRGRASS Status Please consult the PLANTS Web site and your State Deschampsia danthonioides Department of Natural Resources for this plant’s current (Trin.) Munro status (e.g. threatened or endangered species, state Plant Symbol = DEDA noxious status, and wetland indicator values). Contributed by: USDA NRCS Plant Materials Center, Description and Adaptation Annual hairgrass is a fine textured, native, cool season Corvallis, Oregon grass with smooth, slender stems (culms) that are 10 to 60 cm tall. The form is upright to spreading, short, and somewhat tufted. The narrow leaf blades are hairless, rough on the edges, slightly in-rolled, 0.5 to 1.5 (2) mm wide, and 1 to 10 cm long. Flower heads (panicles) are open, 7 to 25 cm long, with ascending lower branches. Annual hairgrass occurs from near sea level at the coast to 8,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains. It is primarily found from Alaska south to Baja California and east to Montana and New Mexico; also the Northeast US and Chile. Key to identification: Annual hairgrass can be distinguished from slender hairgrass (Deschampsia elongata) and tufted hairgrass (Deschampsia cespitosa) by its weaker root development, fewer leaves, and smaller stature. Without close inspection it may be confused with other annual grasses, such as annual fescues (Vulpia spp.). Both may occur in waste areas. Consult botanical keys for proper identification. Relative abundance in wild: While most common in the Photo by Dale Darris, USDA NRCS Corvallis PMC. Pacific Coast states, the species can still be hard to locate. However, it can occur in large stands, especially in vernal Alternative Names pools dominated by annuals.

  • COVER CROPS and SOIL-BORNE FUNGI DANGEROUS TOWARDS the CULTIVATION of SALSIFY (Tragopogon Porrifolius Var
    Acta Sci. Pol., Hortorum Cultus 10(2) 2011, 167-181 COVER CROPS AND SOIL-BORNE FUNGI DANGEROUS TOWARDS THE CULTIVATION OF SALSIFY (Tragopogon porrifolius var. sativus (Gaterau) Br.) Elbieta Patkowska, Mirosaw Konopiski University of Life Sciences in Lublin Abstract. Salsify has a remarkable taste and nutritious values. It is a rich source of inulin – a glycoside which has a positive effect on human and animal organisms. The paper pre- sents studies on the species composition of soil-borne fungi infecting the roots of Tragopogon porrifolius var. sativus cultivated with the use of oats, tansy phacelia and spring vetch as cover crops. In a field experiment the cover crops formed abundant green mass before winter and it constituted a natural mulch on the surface of the plough land. It was managed in two ways: 1) mixed with the soil as a result of spring ploughing, or 2) mixed with the soil as a result of pre-winter ploughing. The conventional cultivation of salsify, i.e. without cover crops, constituted the control. The studies established the number and health status of four-week-old salsify seedlings and roots with necrotic signs. A laboratory mycological analysis made it possible to determine the quantitative and qualitative composition of fungi infecting the underground parts of Tragopogon porri- folius var. sativus. The emergences and the proportion of infected salsify seedlings varied and depended on the species of the mulching plant. The smallest number of infected seed- lings was obtained after the mulch with oats, slightly more after the application of spring vetch or tansy phacelia as cover crops, and the most in the control.

  • Overview of Vicia (Fabaceae) of Mexico
    24 LUNDELLIA DECEMBER, 2014 OVERVIEW OF VICIA (FABACEAE) OF MEXICO Billie L. Turner Plant Resources Center, The University of Texas, 110 Inner Campus Drive, Stop F0404, Austin TX 78712-1711 [email protected] Abstract: Vicia has 12 species in Mexico; 4 of the 12 are introduced. Two new names are proposed: Vicia mullerana B.L. Turner, nom. & stat. nov., (based on V. americana subsp. mexicana C.R. Gunn, non V. mexicana Hemsl.), and V. ludoviciana var. occidentalis (Shinners) B.L. Turner, based on V. occidentalis Shinners, comb. nov. Vicia pulchella Kunth subsp. mexicana (Hemsley) C.R. Gunn is better treated as V. sessei G. Don, the earliest name at the specific level. A key to the taxa is provided along with comments upon species relationships, and maps showing distributions. Keywords: Vicia, V. americana, V. ludoviciana, V. pulchella, V. sessei, Mexico. Vicia, with about 140 species, is widely (1979) provided an exceptional treatment distributed in temperate regions of both of the Mexican taxa, nearly all of which were hemispheres (Kupicha, 1982). Some of the illustrated by full-page line sketches. As species are important silage, pasture, and treated by Gunn, eight species are native to green-manure legumes. Introduced species Mexico and four are introduced. I largely such as V. faba, V. hirsuta, V. villosa, and follow Gunn’s treatment, but a few of his V. sativa are grown as winter annuals in subspecies have been elevated to specific Mexico, but are rarely collected. Gunn rank, or else treated as varieties. KEY TO THE SPECIES OF VICIA IN MEXICO (largely adapted from Gunn, 1979) 1.

  • Seed Impurities of Grain Identification Guide
    Seed Impurities of Grain Identification Guide 3rd Edition Introduction The contamination of grain with weed seeds is important for a variety of reasons; some contain toxins, some are considered to be noxious, some are specified in State Stockfeed legislation, some detract from the overall appearance of the grain sample and others are listed in the receival standards of commodities handled and stored by state bulk handling organisations. This comprehensive guide to the identification of weed seeds has be prepared for grain samplers, seed cleaning companies, stockfeed suppliers and all other agricultural workers involved in the assessment of grain. How to use this booklet In this guide seeds are ordered by shape and then size within the seed shape category. The seed shape categories are: • Round • Oval • Elongated • Kidney • Angular • Spoon Shaped i The seed size is indicated by a vertical line alongside a diagram of a grain of wheat. This shows the comparative size of each seed. Where seeds are referred to by more than one common name other names are listed. The scientific and common names of the seeds in the book are those used in the CSIRO, Handbook of Australian Weeds by M. Lazarides, K. Cowley and P. Hohnen, published 1997. Seed pods are usually shown in photographs if the seeds in question are often found inside pods. Occasionally seeds are never released from pods, thus only the pods are shown in the photographs. It should be noted that the identification of seed species is not always possible with the naked eye. Thus many of the photographs in the booklet have been magnified.
