Title
HEADING RESPONSE OF ORCHARDGRASS SEEDLINGS TO PHOTOPERIOD AND TEMPERATURE

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Floral induction can be completed in four weeks under 10-hour photoperiods at 10 C, or 21 C in some strains.
- Intervention effect Six rather than four weeks of induction produced earlier heading in one strain.
- Intervention effect At 10 C rather than 21 C, percent heading, heads per plant and total head yield increased significantly.
- Intervention effect Juvenile-stage environmental conditions had no effect on postinduction development.
- Intervention effect Continuous postinduction light promoted earlier heading, greater weight per head and higher head yield.
- Recommendation The authors recommend a schedule to complete the orchardgrass life cycle in 16–19 weeks.
