Abstract:
... There is still a controversy about the environmental impact of fishponds, especially on their ability to retain nutrients. This paper presents some basic rules of nutrient cycling in running and stagnant waters and the biotic and abiotic transformation of nutrients delivered to dam reservoirs and fishponds. Based on these common properties of eutrophic stagnant waters, some critical remarks are pr ...

Subject:
Alopecurus pratensis; Elymus repens; environmental factors; fabrics; planting; progeny; reproductive behavior; rhizomes; soil; soil fertility; solar radiation
Abstract:
... To benefit from expansion in space, a clonal plant must at first invest some of its resources in the production of clonal offspring. When resources are scarce, investment in clonal growth can be costly. Investment could be more costly in the case of long compared to short rhizomes. However, benefits can also be substantial if the plant can attain resources from a large area. Thus, both the growth ...

Abstract:
... Reports of hypomagnesaemia, a Mg deficiency in ruminants, occur most frequently when livestock graze the spring growth of grass pastures. To minimize these animal losses it is important to know whether differences exist among forage grasses for potential risk of Mg deficiency in ruminant livestock. The objectives of this study were 1) to determine if several cool-season forage grasses accumulate K ...

Abstract:
... 1. Different grass species dominate grasslands fertilized with nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P), possibly due to the impact of N : P stoichiometry on competitive interactions. How species compete for nutrients, and whether the mechanisms are similar for N and P, is still not fully understood. 2. We investigated whether the outcome of competition between Alopecurus pratensis and Agrostis capillaris d ...

In plant communities, a better use of nitrogen for growth and access to additional nitrogen by N₂ fixing legumes have been suggested as mechanisms that contribute to the positive relationship between species richness and above-ground biomass production. We studied above-ground biomass production, and plant and soil nitrogen in a biodiversity experiment using a pool of nine potentially dominant ...

The samples were taken on a part of the European route E30 (Siedlce by road). The following plants were tested: Dactylis glomerata, Arrhenatherum elatius, and Alopecurus pratensis. During the flowering of grasses, the plant material was collected at distances of 1, ...

In meiosis the F1 plants formed seven bivalents and seven univalents, proving at least partial homology between two of the three genoms involved. The F1 plants were highly sterile, but some progeny were obtained after open pollinating. One pentaploid plant, probably arising through a f ...

Abstract:
... Maternal effects (i.e. trans‐generational plasticity) and soil legacies generated by drought and plant diversity can affect plant performance and alter nutrient cycling and plant community dynamics. However, the relative importance and combined effects of these factors on plant growth dynamics remain poorly understood. We used soil and seeds from an existing plant diversity and drought manipulatio ...
