Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation At 5 and 10 days after vegetative-stage defoliation, meadow bromegrass regrowth exceeded smooth bromegrass.
- Observation At 5 and 10 days after vegetative-stage defoliation, hybrid bromegrass regrowth exceeded smooth bromegrass.
- Observation After stem elongation defoliation, early regrowth ranked meadow highest, hybrid intermediate, and smooth lowest.
- Observation From day 30 onward, etiolated regrowth was similar among all three species at every defoliation stage.
- Observation Etiolated regrowth was similar across species after reproductive-stage defoliation.
- Observation Dormant hybrid bromegrass produced more etiolated regrowth than smooth bromegrass in a growth chamber.
- Association Etiolated regrowth as a fraction of full-light regrowth rose with advancing growth stage in all three bromegrasses.
- Observation Smooth bromegrass had a higher etiolated to full-light regrowth percentage than the other two at stem elongation and reproductive stages.
- Mechanism The authors infer meadow and hybrid bromegrass mobilize stored energy faster than smooth bromegrass early after defoliation.
