In a pot experiment, we investigated the tolerance to mechanical strain of ten grassland plant species representing three growth form groups (cespitose: Festuca arundinacea, Lolium perenne, Taraxacum officinale; rhizomatous: Achillea millefolium, Elymus repens, Poa pratensis; stoloniferous: Agrostis stolonifera, Festuca rubra rubra, Poa supina, Trifolium repens). We hypothesised that growth form and pre-disturbance biomass allocation to the root serve as predictors of damage tolerance. With a tool imitating the action of cleated football boots or scratching chicken, we applied three standardized levels (moderate, medium, strong) of a torsional force which exceeded the shear strength of the sward and impacted on shoots and roots. Post-treatment shoot biomass in relation to shoot biomass of the non-treated control plants served as a measure of damage tolerance. Species, but not growth form groups, differed significantly in damage tolerance, with F. arundinacea and P. pratensis showing the best performance. Shoot re-growth was strongly correlated with relative post-treatment root biomass across all species and treatment levels (R2 = 0.25, P < 0.001), but not with pre-treatment root biomass. We conclude that root resistance to mechanical damage is the prevalent determinant of tolerance to disturbance."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.17221/242/2012-PSE"],["dc.identifier.gro","3147946"],["dc.identifier.isi","000307490100007"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5281"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.publisher","Czech Academy Agricultural Sciences"],["dc.relation.issn","1805-9368"],["dc.relation.issn","1214-1178"],["dc.title","Tolerance to mechanical damage in ten herbaceous grassland plant species"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

So far, there is little knowledge of the agronomic potential under drought conditions of alternatives to T. repens. In the present study we examined dry matter yield and water-use efficiency of five legume species that are currently of minor importance in pasture swards. Our data showed high dry matter yield stability and water-use efficiency for Medicago lupulina and indicate that this species warrants further consideration as an alternative to T. repens in pasture swards under conditions of limited summer precipitation."],["dc.identifier.gro","3147915"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5248"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.publisher","EGF"],["dc.publisher.place","Gogerddan, UK"],["dc.relation.conference","25th General Meeting of the European Grassland Federation"],["dc.relation.crisseries","Grassland Science in Europe"],["dc.relation.eventend","2014-09-11"],["dc.relation.eventlocation","Aberystwyth, Wales"],["dc.relation.eventstart","2014-09-07"],["dc.relation.isbn","978-0-9926940-1-2"],["dc.relation.ispartof","EGF at 50: The Future of European Grasslands"],["dc.relation.ispartofseries","Grassland Science in Europe; 19"],["dc.title","Performance of legumes for potential use in pasture swards under conditions of periodic water limitation"],["dc.type","conference_paper"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
