Abstract/Contents: | "Both different development types and life spans of perennial forage grasses were found to depend strongly on their own response to light in their tillering phase as well as on their response to vernalization. Possible approaches are suggested by which to accelerate grass breeding, with particular reference being made to the potentials implied in producing several generations in one and the same year. An account is given of a process by which to produce up to five generations of winter-type grasses in one year. Biological foundations are mentioned to control sward structures and to adjust them to desired uses, for seed production, hay or grazing. Reference is made to a method by which to obtain an optimum number of generative shoots to the benefit of maximum seed production." |
