| Abstract: The purpose of this study was to assess the potential of prairie grasses as bioindicators of toxicants in soil and to investigate the effect different soil types and organisms have upon the germination of plant bioindicators. As a model compound, we used 2-chlorobenzoic acid (2CBA), a hydrophilic, polar compound present in the degradation pathways of halogenated aromatics. The germination response of prairie grasses to Aroclor 1260-contaminated soil, with concentrations ranging from 13 to 133 micrograms kg-1 total polychlorinated biphenyls, was also investigated. The grasses responded to a wide range of contamination levels, with a 12- and 10-fold difference in the sensitivity of grass species to 2CBA and Aroclor, respectively. Canada blue grass (Poa compressa) and slender wheatgrass (Agropyron trachycaulum) were selected for further study of the effects of soil type and biological treatments on bioindicator response to 2CBA. Canada blue grass response in three of four soils was characterized by Y = 110 - 26 x ln(X), while in the fourth soil it was Y = 94 - 1.6 x X, where Y equals percent germination and X the 2CBA concentration. Slender wheatgrass response was Y = 140 - 23 x ln(X), with no significant difference between soil types. Previous biological treatments of soil significantly affected the response of slender wheatgrass as a bioindicator. Growing plants or plants inoculated with bacteria in noncontaminated soil before slender wheatgrass was planted inhibited emergence, changing the logarithmic relationship between germination and 2CBA concentrations to Y = 100 - 0.28 x X. Prairie grasses are potentially useful bioindicators of chlorinated aromatics in soil, but biological interactions may alter the bioindicator response. |

| Abstract: The examination of the type material of Poa langiana RCHB. 1831 resulted in its recognition as a distinct species not closely related to P. compressa. At the Isteiner Klotz in S Baden (SW Germany), its original and only known locality, P. langiana seems to be extinct. P. compressa var. expansa, described as new to science, is not identical with P. compressa subsp./var. langiana, a name misapplied to more robust P. compressa plants. |

| Abstract: Effects of abiotic variables, neighbours, and predators on seedling establishment and tiller production of two perennial grasses (Poa pratensis L. and Poa compressa L.) were determined on a topographic gradient in an abandoned pasture. Seeds and plants of each species were added to experimental plots set up both at the top (ridges) and bottoms (hollows) of hills. Seedling establishment and tiller number per plant were each compared where seeds (or plants) were exposed to abiotic variables with and without the presence of neighbours and (or) predators. For P. pratensis , which occurred naturally more often in hollows than on ridges, abiotic variation appeared to be most important in controlling its frequency on the gradient. Tiller production was significantly lower on rides than in hollows where plants were exposed only to abiotic variables (i.e., neighbours removed and predators excluded). For P. compressa , which occurred naturally less often in hollows than on ridges, greater suppression of seedling emergence by neighbours in hollows than on ridges appeared to be the factor controlling its frequency on the gradient. These results provide support for the view that variation in plant frequency across an environmental gradient reflects abiotic variation and differential effects of neighbours. |

| Abstract: We reported previously the primary structure of three full-length cDNA clones that encode a new group of IgE-binding proteins of Kentucky bluegrass (KBG) pollen, designated as Poa p IX. In the present study we have further characterized the cloned Poa p IX proteins, identified the corresponding proteins in KBG pollen extract, and determined their antigenic relationships with other known grass pollen allergens. A recombinant IgE-binding polypeptide rKBG7.2 that represents the C-terminal fragment, conserved in Poa p IX proteins, appeared to contain epitopes unique to these proteins and served as an immunosorbent for the isolation of the corresponding human IgE antibodies. On two-dimensional PAGE blots these IgE antibodies bound selectively to five distinct KBG pollen proteins with molecular mass 28 to 34 kDa and isoelectric point > 9.5. These proteins differ in size and charge from known allergens, but are very similar to those of the recombinant Poa p IX proteins. The rKBG3.1, which represents the N-terminal region of the Poa p IX clone KBG31, as well as the corresponding natural allergens were shown to possess epitopes that crossreact with the acidic group V allergens of Timothy. Comparison of amino acid sequences of recombinant Poa p IX proteins with those of Lol p I isoallergens revealed no significant sequence similarities. In contrast, partial homology was demonstrated between the N-terminal sequences of these proteins and the Phl p V proteins. Our results confirm that the Poa p IX clones represent a distinct and major group of allergens of KBG pollen, and demonstrate structural similarities and antigenic cross-reactivities among different groups of allergenic proteins in grass pollens. |

| Abstract: drought resistant, however, for employment on thin, dry upland soils in the central part of the state. On the better, fairly well watered soils these grasses may well be grown in combination with sweet clover in the central and with alsike and red clover in the eastern part of the state. Of the true southern grasses, bermuda alone proved sufficiently hardy to endure winter conditions in north-central Oklahoma. Carpet grass was not as drought resistant as bermuda. Dallis grass showed a most remarkable degree of drought resistance but was not winterhardy. Alfalfa and sweet clover have shown themselves to be the most dependable legumes for central Oklahoma. None of the true clovers are in position to compete with these two crops in the central part of the state. As the more humid eastern part, especially the northeastern portion of the state, is approached a definite place is found for the true clovers. The true clovers can be grown in north-central Oklahoma only with special care and on well-watered soils. Black medic and subterranean clover did not prove sufficiently drought resistant for Oklahoma conditions. Bur clover was not sufficiently winterhardy for north-central Oklahoma, but it has a place in the eastern and southeastern portions of the state. Crimson clover survived the winter of 1926-27 but did not yield enough to be of practical value. The lespedezas lack in drought resistance to be of practical value in the central part of Oklahoma, except in special locations and for special purposes. They have a definite place in the more humid portions of the state. Both Korean and Kobe have shown themselves to be superior to Japanese lespedeza. |

| Abstract: Plants of Kentucky bluegrass and of Canada bluegrass were grown from May 17 to July 6, 1937, under natural lengths of day and under days with 18.0 hours and with 8.5 hours daily illumination. During this period the mean daily temperature was 67 degrees F, and the average length of natural photoperiod was 15.0 hours. A similar experiment was conducted from September 20 to November 26, 1937, with a mean daily temperature of 52 degrees F and an average length of day of 11.2 hours. Under the relatively long days of late spring and early summer, on the plants of both species the shoots were nearly upright, the internodes became elongated, and on some of the shoots inflorescences developed. On the plants grown under the relatively short days during the fall, the shoots grew in decumbent or semi-decumbent positions, the stems were not elongated, and no inflorescences developed. Likewise, on the plants illuminated for 18.0 hours daily, both in late spring and early summer and also in the fall, irrespective of the differences in temperatures at these seasons, the shoots grew in upright or nearly upright positions and to relatively great lengths. In the spring, particularly on plants of Canada bluegrass, a large proportion of the shoots produced inflorescences. On the plants illuminated 8.5 hours daily, the shoots grew in decumbent or semi-decumbent positions, the internodes of the stems were not elongated, and few or no inflorescences developed. The rhizomes of Kentucky bluegrass developed in greater numbers during late spring and early summer than in late fall and early spring. Under experimental conditions in late spring the ratio of rhizomes to shoots was about three times as great, and in th Abstract the number of rhizomes per plant was much greater under long days than under short days. The rhizomes of Canada bluegrass developed in greatest numbers in late fall and early spring. Under experimental conditions at both times, greater numbers of rhizomes developed under short days than under long days. The distinguishing habits of growth of plants of Kentucky bluegrass and of Canada bluegrass during late spring and early summer are due primarily to the relatively long days occurring then. Likewise, the habits of growth peculiar to the fall season are due primarily to the short days occurring at that time. |

| Abstract: Thirty-nine New York pastures were chosen for study in two localities not vastly different in climate but distinctly unlike in soil. In the more agriculturally important Ontario loam area or province Poa compressa is the dominant grass, while Poa pratensis holds the ascendency in the area on Dunkirk silty clay loam. Patches of the species other than the dominant one occurred in all pastures selected for study. This made possible the pairing of samples and the use of Student's method. This investigation considers soil differences beneath the two species of Poa, on which subject there are many opinions and few experimental data. The hydrogen-ion concentration results support odds of about 2.6 to 1 and about 14 to 1, respectively, for the mean differences between the paired soil samples from beneath the two species in the Poa pratensis and Poa compressa provinces. Despite this, and contrary to popular opinion, Poa compressa dominates in the province of lower hydrogen-ion concentration (or higher pH). Data for replaceable hydrogen agree generally with the pH figures as indicated by significant negative coefficients of correlation. Odds for the mean differences in approximate replaceable calcium are about 6.1 to 1 and about 3.9 to 1 for the areas of the pratensis and compressa species, respectively. However, it is very evident from the data that Poa compressa dominates in the province the soil of which is generally higher in replaceable calcium. Within the province of Poa compressa domination the means indicate more replaceable magnesium under the pratensis species than under compressa. Odds for the mean difference are at least 100 to 1. In the Poa pratensis province the mean difference (in the same direction) justifies odds of 4 to 1. Mean differences in replaceable potassium seem, in a sense, to be the counterpart of those for magnesium. The higher odds (about 105 to 1) apply to the Poa pratensis province. Odds for the Poa compressa area are about 20 to 1. In both cases the means are higher under the pratensis species. Differences between approximate total exchange capacity means yield odds of about 27 to 1 and about 14 to 1 for the areas of Poa pratensis and Poa compressa, respectively. A high degree of positive correlation exists between total nitrogen and approximate total exchange capacity except for the Poa compressa soils taken in the Poa pratensis area. Mean approximate metallic base saturation is higher for soils beneath the pratensis species than beneath those of the compressa in the area where the latter is dominant. Odds for the mean difference are over 300 to 1. In the Poa pratensis area the odds are less than 1 to 1. There is a high degree of positive correlation between pH and metallic base saturation. More "available" phosphates are generally found under the pratensis in both provinces, but the mean differences are only slightly greater than the precision intervals of the determinations. Odds are about 171 to 1 and 30 to 1 for Poa pratensis and Poa compressa areas, respectively. Infinite odds and odds of about 3,332 to 1 between means for the areas of Poa compressa and Poa pratensis, respectively, indicate that greater amounts of total nitrogen are found under Poa pratensis. |

| Abstract: The rhizomes of grasses, as well as of other plants, include those forms of elongated rooting stems which grow beneath the surface of the soil. Both rhizomes and above-ground shoots develop, to a limited extent, at all times when weather conditions are favorable for growth. The new shoots of each type develop in the greatest numbers at fairly definite seasons which overlap to some extent but which do not coincide. In the latitude of northern Ohio, new rhizomes appear in the greatest numbers on plants of the species studied, chiefly during June, July, August, and early September. New above-ground shoots, on the other hand, develop in the greatest numbers from August or September until the close of the growing season, and during April and early May. A great deal of variation occurs in the way in which rhizomes develop in different species of grasses. In some species, as in Canada bluegrass, the secondary and later rhizomes originate from buds at nodes on older rhizomes at more or less regular intervals. In other species, as Kentucky bluegrass, a very large proportion of rhizomes originate from buds at the bases of above-ground shoots. Rhizomes originating in this way at first grow downward and penetrate the soil, then grow horizontally beneath its surface. The variations in the manner of the origin and the later development of rhizomes on plants of different species of grasses, like the variations in the manner of branching in their inflorescence, result in different types of rhizome systems. The rate at which a rhizomatious plant spreads depends partly upon external conditions, and partly upon conditions inherent in the plant. The lengths to which the rhizomes grow and the frequency with which new ones develop determine the spread o |

| Abstract: The difficulties encountered in the selection of perennial forage plants in the southern Great Plains area are pointed out. The distribution of groups of forage crops in relation to the types of native vegetation of Oklahoma is given, together with a discussion of the factors favoring and limiting the distribution of the several groups. The yields, ranges of adaptation, factors favoring, and factors limiting the growth and employment of 18 species of cultivated grasses and 14 species of legumes are discussed. Many of the northern grasses, such as timothy, creeping bent, Kentucky and Canada bluegrasses, smooth brome, and slender wheat, showed themselves to be poorly adapted to the high temperatures and the at times dry periods of the summers of central Oklahoma. Such typical sod-forming grasses as creeping bent, Kentucky bluegrass, and smooth brome developed typical bunch habits of growth under prevailing conditions. This was taken as an index of lack of vigor and aggressiveness. Meadow fescue, while more drought resistant and better able to endure high temperatures than the above-mentioned northern grasses, was not sufficiently vigorous to be of great value. The fine-leaved fescues, such as sheep, hard, and red fescue, while low yielders, have shown themselves to be very drought resistant or rather drought escaping due to their ability to grow early in the season. The rye grasses, while producing high yields during the first vegetative season, especially following fall seedings, were short lived, behaving in practically all instances as annuals due to their inability to endure high summer temperatures. Tall oat, orchard grass, and redtop showed themselves to be constant yielders with a high degree of drought and high temperature endurance and sufficiently aggressive to be of value on the better soils of east-centra |
