Quick Bibliography Series Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography Series of the National
Agricultural Library, are intended primarily for
current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are not
indepth exhaustive bibliographies on any given subject. However,
the citations are a substantial resource for recent investigations
on a given topic. They also serve the purpose of bringing the
literature of agriculture to the interested user who, in many
cases, could not access it by any other
means. The bibliographies are derived from computerized on-line
searches of the AGRICOLA data base. Timeliness of topic and
evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria.
The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search
strategy of the Quick Bibliography. Information regarding
these is available upon request from the author/searcher.
Copies of this bibliography may be made or used for
distribution without prior approval. The inclusion or
omission of a particular publication or citation may not be
construed as endorsement or disapproval.

Abstract: Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) generally does not
persist well under continuous grazing. Experiments were
conducted under continuous grazing to compare the persistence and
regrowth potential of an alfalfa germplasm (Georgia-Grazed
Collection, GA-GC), selected for continuous grazing, with two hay-
type (Apollo and Florida 77) and two grazing-type (Travois and
Spredor II) cultivars. The germplasm and cultivars were subjected
to continuous, heavy grazing by beef cattle for 18 weeks in each of
3 yr to a height of 3 to 5 cm. Wire
exclosures rotated at 28-d intervals on all plots were used to
estimate the regrowth potential of each entry during the
grazing period. Plant and stem counts were taken before and after
grazing each year as estimates of stand persistence.
Cultivars differed significantly for stand persistence after 3 yr
of continuous grazing with 6 to 9 plants m-2 remaining for the hay-
type cultivars and 40 to 48 plants m-2 remaining for grazing-type
cultivars. The GA-GC maintained plant densities of 64 plants m-2
while producing the highest forage regrowth compared with all
cultivars. Total nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) in roots at the
end of 1986 and 1987 grazing seasons
ranged from 256 g kg-1 for Florida 77 to 429 g kg-1 for
Travois, suggesting that grazing tolerance may be related to the
TNC concentration in roots of alfalfa that had been
heavily and continuously grazed. This study indicates that
selection for plant persistence under continuous grazing from a
broad-based population improved the grazing tolerance of the
resulting germplasm (GA-GC) while maintaining the potential for
good forage yields.

Abstract: The results indicate that unhulled biennial white sweet
clover seed are superior from the standpoint of hay
production to scarified seed. One season is too short a time for a

Abstract: Cicer milkvetch (Astragalus cicer L.) is a
promising forage legume, but little information is available on its
forage production potential, particularly in mixtures with grasses.
The objectives of these studies were to: (i)
determine the compatibility of irrigated cicer milkvetch (CMV) with
seven cool-season grasses each planted in alternate rows, and (ii)
compare the influence of three planting patterns on the
compatibility of irrigated CMV with each of four cool-
season grasses. The seven grass species used in the first
study were: smooth bromegrass (Bromas inermis Leyss.), meadow
bromegrass (B. biebersteinii Roem. and Schult.), crested
wheatgrass [Agropyron cristatum (L.) Beauv. ssp. pectinatum (Bieb.)
Tzvel.], intermediate wheatgrass [Thinopyrum
intermedium (Host.) Barkworth & Dewey], pubescent wheatgrass [T.
intermedium ssp. barbulatum Schur.)], tall wheatgrass [T. elongatum
(Host.) Dewey], and creeping foxtail (Alopecurus
arundinaceus Poir.). The grasses used in the second study were
smooth bromegrass, meadow bromegrass, intermediate wheatgrass, and
orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.). The soil was a Nunn clay loam
(mesic Aridic Agriustoll). Tall wheatgrass did not persist beyond
the second harvest year. There was little, if any, difference among
the other six grasses for compatibility with CMV because by the
sixth harvest year the amount of CMV in the mixtures ranged from 76
to 83%. By the third harvest year, the legume content of the forage
for the three planting patterns was similar and ranged from about
80 to 90%. Once
established, CMV was very competitive with all cool-season
grasses and its forage yields alone and in grass mixtures were very
similar to those of alfalfa.

Abstract: Cultivar evaluation trials for perennial forage
grasses traditionally have emphasized forage yield and
adaptation characteristics, such as maturity, pest
resistances, and stress resistances. The objectives of this study
were to evaluate cultivar effects and cultivar X
environmental factor interactions for relative feed value
(RFV) of several grass cultivars grown in binary mixtures with
alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). Grass species were ryegrass
(Lolium spp., including perennial [L. perenne L.],
intermediate [L. hybridum], and festulolium [Festulolium
braunii K.A.]), orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), reed
canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.), timothy (Phleum
pratense L.), and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.).
Relative feed value was computed, as an index of forage
nutritive value, from neutral and acid detergent fiber (NDF and
ADF). Cluster analysis revealed that environments based on similar
cuttings and from the same year tended to cluster
together. Only cultivars of orchardgrass, ryegrass, and
timothy varied in RFV. Cultivar X environment interactions
were species-specific. In orchardgrass and timothy, much of the
variation was due to differences in cultivar maturity at first
cutting. These maturity effects also carried over into second-
cutting RFV for timothy. For perennial ryegrass,
tetraploids ranked higher in Cut-1 RFV than diploids, but did not
differ in Cut-2 RFV. Cultivars in at least three perennial forage
grass species can be separated according to their RFV by replicated
testing in multiple environments. Replication over at least eight
environments is necessary to develop broad cultivar inferences. It
was possible to discern consistent
tendencies across environments only in orchardgrass and
timothy, the species for which RFV was related closely to
maturity.

Abstract: The extent of N2 fixation in legume-grass mixtures grown
in the northcentral USA and the importance of legume to grass N
transfer are not well understood. The objective of
this 4-yr field experiment was to determine seasonal N2
fixation and N transfer by stable isotope methods in swards of
alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus
corniculatus L.), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), and
ladino white clover (T. repens L.) with reed canarygrass
(Phalaris arundinacea L.). Alfalfa in mixture with grass fixed the
most N2 per season (82 to 254 kg N ha-1) and ladino white clover
the least (1 to 20 kg N ha-1). For all mixtures except birdsfoot
trefoilgrass, fixation was greatest during Year 2 of the stands.
The proportion of legume N from symbiotic fixation increased
progressively from Year 1 through 4 and averaged
>93% for all legumes in Year 4. Legume to grass N transfer was
greatest in Year 2 of the stands and averaged approximately 36% of
grass N across all mixtures. On a land area basis, N transfer in
Year 2 ranged from 29 to 53 kg N ha-1 and was
greatest for the ladino white clover-grass mixture. The
decline in N transfer in Years 3 and 4 was associated with a loss
in sward legume content, reduced whole-plant dry matter
accumulation in legume and grass, and large losses in root-
plus-crown dry matter accumulation by grass in Year 4. The
results indicate that forage legumes in mixture with grass are
virtually self-sufficient for N and can concurrently transfer
appreciable N to the companion grass.

Abstract: The introduction of perennial legumes into warm-
season grass pastures has been shown to improve both forage quality
and animal performance. Illinois bundleflower
(Desmanthus illinoensis (Michs.) MacM.) appears to have
potential for pasture and range interseeding. This study
investigated establishment methods and the competitive ability and
longevity of this species when interseeded into kleingrass (Panicum
coloratum L.) swards. Sabine Illinois bundleflower was drilled or
broadcast into a mature kleingrass pasture
either intact or suppressed by disking, paraquat (1-
dimethyl-4-4 dipyridinium dichloride), or mefluidide (N-[2,4
dimethyl-5 (trifuromethyl) sulfonyl-amino-phenyl]acetamide). Seed
was sown in broadcast plots at 6.8 kg PLS/ha compared to 3.4 kg
PLS/ha in drilled plots. Establishment data were only collected for
1 year. The establishment year had a wetter than normal spring.
Treatment effects on legume establishment could differ
substantially from those found in this study in drier years. Both
paraquat and disking treatments resulted in good establishment of
the legume (greater than 10 seedlings m-2 in the establishment
year). With the exception of disked plots, broadcasting at twice
the rate of drilled plots resulted in similar seedling legume
densities between the 2 seeding
methods. Illinois bundleflower proved to be quite competitive under
the conditions of this study. The legume component
increased from 14% in the establishment year to 52% by the
third year after establishment. Individual Illinois
bundleflower plants survived for the 4 years of the study.
Interseeding increased total plot yield in the second, third, and
fourth years after establishment. Interseeded plots
produced more biomass than noninterseeded plots 1, 2, and 3 years
after interseeding.

Abstract: Recent studies have shown that wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) grown in association with hairy vetch (Vicia
villosa Roth) has a greater forage quality potential than
wheat grown alone. The objective of this study was to evaluate the
forage quality of wheat-vetch with four vetch seeding
rates at different stages of maturity. In the fall of 1983 and
1984, field plots were established at the University of
Illinois South Farm at Urbana, IL. Wheat was planted alone at a
rate of 324 pure live seeds (PLS) per square meter, on in
combination with hairy vetch at rates of 0, 54, 108, or 162 PLS/m2
in a Flanagan silt loam (fine, montmorillonitic, mesic Aquic
Argiudoll) soil. The forage was harvested when wheat was in the
boot, anthesis, and milk stages of maturity. Mixed
samples and individual fractions were analyzed using standard
forage quality procedures. The vetch proportion was 18.4 and 9.9%
in 1984 and 1985, respectively. Dry matter yield
decreased with increasing vetch seeding rate and increased (P less
than 0.05) as the season progressed. Crude protein
increased (P less than 0.05) an average of 46.8 and 22.9% in 1984
and 1985, respectively, as vetch seeding rate increased from 0 to
162 PLS/m2, crude protein was primarily contributed by the vetch
fraction, which contained twice as much protein as did wheat in
both years. Digestibility (P less than 0.05) increased an average
of 12 and 1% as vetch seeding rate
increased from 0 to 162 PLS/m2 in 1984 and 1985, respectively.
Total cell wall concentration was not affected (P greater than
0.05) by vetch seeding rate. We conclude that the forage
quality of wheat-vetch sown with a vetch seeding rate of 162 PLS/m2
was higher than that of wheat-vetch with lower vetch seeding rates.

Abstract: Animal performance can be improved by overseeding
legumes into grass swards, but little is known concerning
consumption of various legumes over time. This study compared
selection of various legumes to grass and weeds, and gathered
information helping in configuring grazing systems. Over two
grazing seasons, esophageally fistulated steers (Bos taurus)
sampled replicated pasture systems of; (i) orchardgrass
(Dactylis glomerata L.) and red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) (OG-
RC), (ii) orchardgrass and birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus
corniculatus L.) (OG-BFT), and (iii) orchardgrass alone (OG) as
spring and fall pasture near Columbia, MO. Steers also
sampled the same treatments as summer hay regrowth, except
that alfalfa [Medicago sativa L.] replaced birdsfoot trefoil in
Treatment ii (OG-ALF). Grass dominated swards and steers diets, but
selectivity ratios (SR) indicated no preferential selection for
grass by steers. Dietary amounts of birdsfoot trefoil and red
clover on pasture, and red clover and alfalfa on hay regrowth were
similar, although availability of red
clover was generally less than the other legumes. Thus, steers
selected red clover to a greater extent over birdsfoot trefoil or
alfalfa early pasture and hay regrowth, and avoided both species
during the fall. Average SR values indicate
selectivity for weed species was least on OG-RC followed by OG-BFT,
OG, and OG-ALf. Diets from grass-legume systems
contained similar amounts of weeds and legumes, but weed
proportion increased with time.

Abstract: Fall weaned Angus calves grazed stockpiled 1) tall
fescue Festuca arundinacea Schreb.), 2) tall fescue-red clover
(Trifolium pratense L.), or 3) tall fescue-alfalfa (Medicago sativa
L.) or were barn-fed, 4) tall fescue hay, 5)
orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.)-alfalfa hay, or 6) tall fescue
silage from late October to early April during each of 5 yr.
Infection of the fescue with Acremonium coenophialum
ranged from 0 to 55%. There were two replications each of
steers and heifers for each forage system in a completely
random design. Each replicate was grazed by three Angus
stockers, except for System 1, which was grazed by six
stockers, for a total of 420 stockers. Each pasture replicate
contained .8 ha (except System 1, which was 1.6 ha), and the
stocking rate was one stocker per .27 ha. Fescue hay and
silage were harvested each spring for barn-fed systems from the
area stockpiled for grazing by cattle in System 1.
Nitrogen fertilizer (90 kg/ha) was applied in early spring and
again in early August, before stockpiling; no N was applied to
stockpiled fescue grown with legumes. Daily gains by calves grazing
stockpiled fescue-alfalfa were greater (P < .01) than by calves
grazing stockpiled fescue-red clover or N-fertilized stockpiled
fescue (.50, .33, and .34 kg/d, respectively), but fescue-alfalfa
calves required more days (P < .01) of
supplemental hay feeding (105, 60, and 36, respectively).
Calves fed fescue hay in the barn gained more (P < .01) than those
fed fescue silage. Feeding orchardgrass-alfalfa hay
resulted in greater gain (P < .01) than feeding fescue hay or
fescue silage (.50 vs .18 and .07 kg/d, respectively).
Differences in gains paralleled differences in DMI by cattle fed
either hay or silage. Grazing stockpiled fescue-alfalfa gave animal
performance similar to that resulting from the
feeding of alfalfa-orchardgrass hay and required approximately half
as much conserved forage. Several forage systems can be
successfully used to winter stocker cattle

Abstract: Six year-round, all-forage, three-paddock systems for
beef cow-calf production were used to produce five calf crops
during a 6-yr period. Forages grazed by cows during
spring, summer, and early fall consisted of one paddock of 1) tall
fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)-ladino clover
(Trifolium repens L.) or 2) Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.)-
white clover (Trifolium repens L.). Each of these forage mixtures
was combined in a factorial arrangement with two
paddocks of either 1) fescue-red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), 2)
orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.)-red clover, or 3)
orchardgrass-alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), which were used for hay,
creep grazing by calves, and stockpiling for grazing by cows in
late fall and winter. Each of the six systems included two
replications; each replicate contained 5.8 ha and was
grazed by eight Angus cow-calf pairs for a total of 480 cow-calf
pairs. Fescue was < 5% infected with Acremonium
coenophialum. Pregnancy rate was 94%. Cows grazing fescue-
ladino clover maintained greater (P < .05) BW than those
grazing bluegrass-white clover, and their calves tended (P < .09)
to have slightly greater weaning weights (250 vs 243 kg,
respectively). Stockpiled fescue-red clover provided more (P < .05)
grazing days and required less (P < .05) hay fed to cows than
stockpiled orchardgrass plus either red clover or
alfalfa. Digestibilities of DM, CP, and ADF, determined with
steers, were greater (P < .05) for the orchardgrass-legume
hays than for the fescue-red clover hay. All systems produced
satisfactory cattle performance, but fescue-ladino clover
combined with fescue-red clover required minimum inputs of
harvested feed and maintained excellent stands during 6 yr.

Abstract: Aeschynomene (Aeschynomene americana L.) is a warm-
season annual legume; to persist from year to year, its stands must
regenerate from seed. Autumn grazing management must
balance the need for seed yield with livestock needs for
quality herbage. Aeschynomene was grown in pasture association with
'Floralta' limpograss [Hemarthria altissima (Poir.) Stapf & C.E.
Hubb.] on a Pomona sand (sandy, siliceous, hypothermic Ultic
Haplaquod) in 1987 and 1988. Our objective was to
measure the influence of three postgrazing stubble heights
(SH) and four closure dates (CD, the times when autumn grazing was
discontinued) on legume pod yield and amount of herbage left
ungrazed at season end. Aeschynomene pod yield per plant and per
hectare decreased as SH decreased from 24 to 8 cm, and as CD was
delayed from 1 wk before to 2 wk after first flower. Ungrazed plots
yielded 350 and 500 kg of pod ha-1 in 1987 and 1988, while the
earliest CD and tallest SH treatment yielded 90 and 180 kg ha-1.
Pod yield declined with delayed CD because inflorescences per
plant, pods per inflorescence, and pod
weight decreased. Most pod yield components tended to decline with
decreasing SH, but no significant differences were
detected. Though pod yields were highest with early CD and
tall SH, approximately 50% of total herbage produced for these
treatments remained ungrazed at season end. Thus, contribution of
aeschynomene is reduced during a time when perennial
grasses do not meet the nutrient requirements of grazing
animals. Because taller SH leaves more ungrazed herbage, a
potentially useful compromise between high seed yield and
maximum forage utilization is to graze aeschynomene closely (8-16
cm), but to end autumn grazing before flowering.
Additional utilization may be possible if grazing is resumed after
most pods are mature, but nutritive value of this later herbage
generally is low.

Abstract: Forage grass cultivars are often grown in binary
mixtures with forage legumes. Because performance of grass-
legume mixtures cannot be reliably predicted from pure stand
information of the components, testing of grass-legume
mixtures is necessary to develop reliable mixture
recommendations. The objectives of this study were to evaluate a
large number of cultivars of several temperate forage
grasses in binary mixtures with alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) for
ground cover potential in a range of Wisconsin
environments, and to develop and efficient cultivar screening
program. Cultivars of nine species (146 total cultivars) were grown
in at least one of five experiments. Experiments were seeded in
spring of 1985 and 1986 at one of four locations
divergent in both soil type and latitude. Grass persistence was
determined after three growing seasons by evaluating the percentage
of ground cover remaining. Grass species and genera varied in
percentage ground cover, but were subject to
interactions with years and locations. In general,
orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) and tall fescue (Festuca
arundinacea Schreb.) had the highest ground cover (76%).
Variation in ground cover among cultivars was detected in all
species except diploid perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.),
tetraploid intermediate ryegrass (L. hybridum), and
festulolium (Festulolium braunii K.A.). Cultivars interacted with
locations and/or years for all species, except reed
canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.). Cultivar X location
interactions appeared partially due to latitude for smooth
bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.), tall fescue, and most
ryegrasses, and to soil type for timothy (Phleum pratense L.).
Conclusions regarding the development of a cultivar testing program
differed for most species. A reasonable compromise in Wisconsin, to
allow for testing each species in common trials, would be to select
one southern and one northern test site.

Abstract: Botanical composition of grass-legume mixtures
greatly influences the productivity and quality of the sward and is
therefore an important variable in many agronomic
studies. Four indirect methods of estimating the botanical
composition of mixed swards of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and
smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) were evaluated to
determine their relative efficacy. The methods were the
constituent differential method using either neutral detergent
fiber (NDF) concentration or crude protein (CP) concentration as
variables, a modified constituent differential method where NDF and
CP concentrations were used simultaneously as
variables, and near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS). Mean
deviations of predicted alfalfa percentages from known values were
lowest for NIRS at all stages of maturity and
averaged 1.5 percentage units. Of the constituent differential
procedures, NDF was the most reliable variable for predicting
alfalfa percentage over all maturities with deviations
averaging 2.9 percentage units. Based upon the results of this
study, NIRS would be the preferred method for estimating
botanical composition of grass-legume mixtures; however, in cases
where NIRS is unavailable or inappropriate, the
constituent differential method using NDF as a single variable
would be an acceptable alternative.

Abstract: Previous research indicates that wheatgrasses
(Agropyron and Thinopyron spp.) and sainfoin (Onobrychis spp.)
produce high quality forage from early spring to summer on the
Southern Great Plains. Little information is available on
their potential for lamb (Ovis aries L.) production under
grazing. Our objective was to determine levels of spring lamb
production from three irrigated wheatgrasses, 'Hycrest' [A.
cristatum (L.) Gaertner X A. desertorum (Fischer ex Link)
Shatters], 'Luna' [T. intermedium subsp. barbulatum (Schur) Barkw.
and D.R. Dewey], and 'Jose' [T. ponticum (Podp.) Barkw. and D.R.
Dewey], grown alone and with 'Renumex' sainfoin (O. viciifolia
Scop.). Replicated pastures grown on a Pullman clay loam (fine,
mixed thermic Torrertic Paleustoll) were
rotationally grazed (herbage allowance of 6.5% of body wt.
d-1) by weaned Rambouillet X Suffolk wether lambs for an
average of 77 d in spring of 1987 and 1988. Seasonal average daily
gain (ADG) ranged between 45 and 69 g d-1 for
monocultures and between 80 and 104 g d-1 for mixtures. Lamb
production per hectare (PROD) for all mixtures was similar
(463 kg ha-1), but higher than for monocultures (238 kg ha-1).
Mixtures compared to monocultures had greater ADC (63%), feed
conversion (55%), and intake (23%). For Jose and Jose-
sainfoin, poor ADG after Week 7 was associated with low
herbage crude protein (92-135 g kg-1) and organic matter
digestibility (550-570 g kg-1). Jose (12.2 Mg ha-1) had the highest
herbage accumulation and Hycrest (7.31 Mg ha-1) the lowest.
Wheatgrasses, particularly when grown with sainfoin, provide good
PROD during spring and early summer.

Abstract: Optimal utilization of the N2-fixation capability of
legumes improves forage productivity and quality and
reduces the need for N fertilizer. This research assessed N2
fixation in binary mixtures of white clover (Trifolium repens L.)
(WC), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) (RC), or
birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) (BT) with tall
fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) (TF) at four legume
proportions. Two identical experiments were established in
Uruguay, one in 1983 (Exp. 1) and one in 1984 (Exp. 2) that were
evaluated for 2 yr. The soil of the area was a fine,
montmorillonitic, mesic, Typic Argiudoll. Symbiotically fixed N was
estimated by 15N isotope dilution by using TF pure
stands as nonfixing reference. The proportion of legume N
derived from air (%Ndfa) was larger in winter and spring
harvests (82-95%) than in other harvests, and differences
among legumes were minimal. In first harvests after seeding, %Ndfa
was 58% for BT and 74% for WC or RC, whereas in summer, WC showed
the least %Ndfa. Total fixed-N yield over 2 yr was greatest for RC-
TF (390 and 330 kg ha-1 for Exp. 1 and Exp. 2) because of both
large %Ndfa and legume yield. As legume
proportion increased %Ndfa decreased linearly, usually with similar
slopes for all legumes. Fixed-N yield increased
linearly as legume proportion increased for RC-TF and BT-TF
mixtures. For WC-TF, there were optimal WC proportions between 50
and 70% in seeding years. We conclude that %Ndfa was
negatively and linearly related to legume proportion for the three
mixtures and that legume-dominant swards were required to maximize
fixed N yields for RC-TF and BT-TF but not for WC-TF. Red clover
fixed the greatest amount of N2 under the
conditions for this study.

Abstract: Prediction of animal weight change (CUM) with
regression models developed from grazing trials typically uses
herbage parameters and CUM measured on the same day. We
hypothesized that lamb (Ovis aries L.) CUM recorded at time t was
a function of herbage quality and/or quantity measured at a
previous harvest t - x (where x = days prior to measurement of
CUM). Our objectives were (i) to determine if time series
regression analysis (TSR) could be used to model CUM from
three irrigated wheatgrasses, 'Hycrest' [Agropyron cristatum (L.)
Gaertner X A. desertorum (Fischer ex Link) Shulters],
'Luna' [Thinopyrum intermedium subsp. barbulatum (Schur)
Barkw. and D.R. Dewey], and 'Jose' [T. ponticum (Podp.) Barkw. and
D.R. Dewey] grown alone and with 'Renumex' sainfoin
(Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.), and (ii) to test the models.
Replicated pastures grown on a fine, mixed thermic Torrertic
Paleustolls were rotationally grazed by Rambouillet X Suffolk
wether lambs for an average of 77 d in spring of 1987 and
1988. Herbage quality, quantity, and plant parts were
estimated from pregrazing, after 2 and 4 d of grazing, and
postgrazing (7 d) harvests and used as variables in TSR. For TSR
models, lagged variables (t - x) were selected more
(67-92% of total) than nonlagged variables (t), supporting our
hypothesis. Time series regression models described CUM
accurately (average R2 > 0.70), but selected variables were not
consistent among treatments, time lags, or years. Model testing
indicated poor predictive accuracy (r2 = 0.07-0.51), limiting the
usefulness of projecting CUM across seasons and demonstrating the
necessity of testing regression models.

Abstract: Competitive exclusion of one component of a binary
perennial grass-legume mixture by the other component is
common, but the persistence of both components is desired.
Fourteen reed canary-grass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) clones,
exhibiting a range for dry-matter yield (DMY), tiller density, and
tiller weight, were grown in alternate-plant binary
mixture with 'Olympic' or 'Baker' alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) or
'Norcen' or 'Dawn' birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) under
a three-cut-per-year management. The objectives were to determine
if reed canarygrass clones and legume cultivars interact for DMY
and legume concentration, to determine if the ranking of 14 reed
canarygrass clones for legume concentation remained consistent
across harvests, to compare the importance of tiller density and
tiller weight to reed canarygrass DMY in legume mixtures, and to
characterize the changing relationship between DMY of reed
canarygrass and companion legumes over
time. Alfalfa and birdsfoot trefoil concentrations increased from
266 and 159 g kg-1, respectively, at Harvest 1 (8 June 1983), to
937 and 856 g kg-1, respectively, at Harvest 7 (7 June 1985).
Interaction between reed canarygrass clones and legume cultivars
generally did not accompany significance of main effects, and ranks
for legume concentration among reed canarygrass clonal mixtures
stabilized by Harvest 2 (26 July 1983). Thus, it may be relatively
easy to characterize reed canarygrass clones for legume
compatibility. In mixtures,
differences in tiller density among reed canarygrass clones usually
accounted for more variation in reed canarygrass DMY than
differences in tiller weight. A negative relationship
between reed canarygrass DMY and legume DMY was always
present. Though legumes increasingly dominated reed
canarygrass over time, the rate of increase of their
domination slowed as legume concentration increased.

Abstract: 'Florida' carpon desmodium [Desmodium heterocarpon (L.)
DC] is a persistent legume under grazing but is often
difficult to establish. Aeschynomene (Aeschynomene americana L.)
and, especially, phasey bean [Macroptilium lathyroides
(L.) Urb.] establish more reliably. Overseeding a mixture of these
legumes in bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge) pastures could
provide the quality forage and N input of legumes
initially from the rapidly establishing species and for
extended periods from the persistent carpon desmodium. The
objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of such
mixtures. Effects of stocking rate and grazing season on
botanical composition, herbage availability, and herbage
nutritive value were evaluated on a Pomona fine sand (sandy,
siliceous, hyperthermic Ultic Haplaquod). Following
overseeding of legumes in March 1987, pastures were grazed at three
stocking rates in summer 1987 and in spring and summer 1988. Carpon
desmodium increased from less than 1% at the
start of grazing in 1987 to over 7% of the live herbage in
1988. Combined percentage of aeschynomene plus phasey bean
decreased during 1987 from more than 4 to 1.6%. Carpon
desmodium percentage was highest (P < 0.10) at the
intermediate stocking rate, while percentage of other legumes was
not affected by stocking rate. Herbage mass decreased
linearly with increases in stocking rate in both summer
grazing seasons. Leaf/stem ratio and nutritive value of legume leaf
and stem were not affected by stocking rate but decreased with time
during each grazing season. The short-lived legumes, aeschynomene
and phasey bean, provided high quality forage
during the establishment period of carpon desmodium but
contributed negligibly during the second year.

Abstract: Most alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars cannot
withstand long-term, continuous grazing. This study was
conducted to determine if plant morphological traits differ among
alfalfa cultivars and populations that vary in
persistence under grazing stress. Hay-type cultivars (Apollo and
Florida 77), grazing-type cultivars (Spredor II, Travois, and
Alfagraze), and populations derived from these cultivars that
survived continuous grazing for 1 or 2 yr were space-
planted in the field in 1987 and 1988. Plants were clipped
biweekly for 16 wk. Decumbency, stem number and diameter,
crown area, and herbage yield were measured at five 4-wk
intervals (Dates 1-5). Crown buds were counted in the fall.
Original populations from Spredor II and Travois had thinner stems,
more decumbent growth, lower herbage yield, and more stems (at Date
1) when compared with populations from Florida 77 and Apollo.
Alfagraze had many, thick stems, intermediate decumbency, and high
herbage yield, indicating these traits can be realized along with
grazing tolerance. Alfagraze and Travois had the most crown buds.
Selected plants of some
cultivars had fewer stems and more decumbent growth initially, but
differed little from their original populations for these traits
after 120 d of frequent clipping. Year-2 selections
from Spredor II and Florida 77 had more crown buds than their
original populations. Genetic coefficients of variation
suggested that selection had resulted in little reduction in
genetic variation and that further selection for all traits may be
possible in each cultivar.

Abstract: Research was conducted to determine the potential for
allelopathy to occur in pastures infested with bitter
sneezeweed. Aqueous extracts of bitter sneezeweed leaves
reduced alfalfa and Italian ryegrass seedling growth as much as 50%
at concentrations of 0.5% (w/v). Leaf extracts were
more phytotoxic than either stem or root extracts and seedling
growth was reduced more than seed germination. Bitter
sneezeweed tissue mixed in potting soil at concentrations as low as
0.3% w/w reduced alfalfa seedling numbers by 43%, plant height by
26%, and foliage dry matter production by 54%
compared to plants cultured in soil without bitter sneezeweed leaf
tissue. The potential concentration of bitter sneezeweed leaf
material in soil in the pasture ecosystem was determined to be 0.5%
w/v in the liquid phase and 0.2% w/w in the solid phase. Alfalfa
seedling growth was reduced by 70% when
germinating seed were placed under a bell jar with a potted mature
bitter sneezeweed plant compared to control seedlings. A potential
exists for bitter sneezeweed interference with
developing alfalfa and Italian ryegrass seedlings following fall
interseeding into pastures infested with bitter
sneezeweed.

Abstract: Lamb grazing experiments conducted on alfalfa
(Medicago sativa L.) fields require numerous measurements of
phytomass in order to identify optimum conditions for lamb
weight gain. Our objective was to test the ability of spectral
reflectance measurements with a portable hand-held radiometer to
predict alfalfa phytomass. We used vegetative indices
consisting of linear combinations of the near infrared (NIR) and
red wavelength intervals, such as the NIR/Red ratio and normalized
difference (ND). Reflectance measurements were
taken during two grazing trials where alfalfa phytomass ranged from
200 g m-2 initially to negligible phytomass after 15 d of intensive
grazing. A portion of the alfalfa was desiccated due to frost
damage during the second trial. The ND and NIR/Red were well
correlated with alfalfa phytomass (r = 0.87-0.97). Measurements
taken at solar zenith angles (57 and 69 degrees) were found to
produce similar ND/phytomass regression
coefficients. The desiccated alfalfa increased red
reflectance, which consequently lowered the ND and NIR/Red
values. The ND was preferable to NIR/Red because it was more
sensitive to low phytomass levels that are characteristic of
grazing studies. An ND of 0.55 identified a threshold
phytomass level, below which continued grazing caused a
decrease in lamb weight gain. Handheld radiometric
measurements are a quick, accurate, nondestructive means of
estimating alfalfa phytomass in pasture grazing experiments.

Abstract: The regions of adaptation of alfalfa (Medicago
sativa L.) and bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.]
overlap in the southeastern USA, but the compatibility of
these species in a mixture has not been described. Two field
experiments were conducted to compare the yield and botanical
composition of alfalfa-bermudagrass mixtures with each species
grown alone. In the first experiment 'Apollo' alfalfa was
grown alone and in mixtures with 'Tifton 44' bermudagrass
fertilized with 0 and 100 kg N ha-1, and compared with
bermudagrass fertilized with N at rates of 100, 300, and 500 kg
ha-1. In a second experiment Apollo alfalfa was grown alone in 15-
cm rows and in 15-and 30-cm rows in mixtures with
'Coastal' bermudagrass. Bermudagrass was also grown alone and
fertilized with 100, 200, and 300 kg of N ha-1. Yields of the
alfalfa-bermudagrass mixtures averaged 9.7 Mg ha-1 over both
experiments and were similar to alfalfa alone (9.2 Mg ha-1). The
mixtures also were similar in yield to bermudagrass
fertilized with 200 kg N ha-1 in the second experiment (11.2 Mg
ha-1) and between yields of bermudagrass receiving 100 and 300 kg
N ha-1 in the first experiment. Alfalfa dominated the mixture in
both experiments comprising 100% of the forage in the spring
harvests, except for the establishment year in the first
experiment. The lowest percentage of alfalfa was in
August when in 1 yr it reached 53%. Neither N fertilization nor row
spacing of the alfalfa affected yield or botanical
composition of the mixture.
