Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect All meadow fescue progenies from seed multiplication were significantly taller, earlier and regrew better than the original seed.
- Observation American lots and the corresponding German populations of meadow fescue did not differ significantly in these characters.
- Observation In timothy, variation of plant characteristics among locations and generations was negligible.
- Intervention effect In perennial ryegrass most progenies were significantly more vigorous in spring, earlier and taller than the original lot.
- Observation In perennial ryegrass American lots from lower latitudes were taller and earlier.
- Observation The fourth generation from the southernmost location headed 6 days earlier than the original perennial ryegrass lot.
- Observation The fourth generation from the southernmost location grew 11 cm taller than the original perennial ryegrass lot.
- Observation Seedling fluorescence percentage of US samples did not differ from the corresponding German progenies.
