Abstract/Contents: | "Responses of tiller dynamics in bahia grass (Paspalum notatum) to nitrogen fertiliser, defoliation and season were analysed using 4-years data from swards under 2 nitrogen rates [50 (LN) and 200 (HN) kg/ha/yr] x 3 cutting heights above ground level [2 (LH), 12 (MH) and 22 (HH) cm]. Total tiller density was ranked LH>MH>HH, and HN>LN in LH treatments. Tiller appearance rate (TAR) was high in June (early summer) or April-May (mid- to late spring), and often characterised by a trend of LH>MH ≅ HH in the first 2 years and LHJune>July-November). Season influenced TDR with higher death rates in the warmer months, and defoliation intensity influenced TDR by varying the magnitude of response of TDR to temperature (LH ≅ MH |
