| Abstract/Contents: | The effects of various infestation levels of Forcipata loca DeLong & Caldwell on the yield, number of tillers per plant, yield per tiller, leaf elongation rate, carbon dioxide exchange rate, specific leaf weight, leaf diffusive resistance and water-soluble carbohydrate concentration of 'Kentucky 31' tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) were studied. The growth response of tall fescue to 9 and 27 leafhoppers/9.5-cm-diameter plastic pot was increased tillering with corresponding decreases in yield and yield per tiller after each of 2 infestation periods. Leaf elongation rates were lower at the low infestation level of 3 leafhoppers/pot. Photosynthesis and specific leaf weight were affected only at the high feeding level (27 leafhoppers/pot) and only after a second infestation period. There was no significant reduction in leaf diffusive resistance at either infestation level. Water-soluble carbohydrate concentration in the leaves decreased with increasing infestation levels. |
