Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Emergence force differed among four forage legumes.
- Association Emergence force was positively correlated with seed weight.
- Observation Alfalfa had higher mean weekly emergence force than other tested species.
- Observation Narrowleaf birdsfoot trefoil had lower mean weekly emergence force than other tested species.
- Observation Legume emergence force rose rapidly 24 to 48 hours after transplanting.
- Observation Legume emergence force gradually declined thereafter.
- Intervention effect Tall wheatgrass emergence force did not significantly decrease until −5.0 bars osmotic potential.
- Intervention effect Lower osmotic potential increased time to maximum force in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Lower osmotic potential did not increase time to maximum force in tall wheatgrass.
- Observation Tall wheatgrass needed 5 to 6 days to reach maximum force.
- Observation Legumes needed 1 to 2 days to reach maximum force.
- Intervention effect Sodium adsorption ratios did not affect alfalfa emergence force.
