Competitive ability of Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum) compared with white clover (Trifolium repens) on lowland and high country sites
(Lincoln University, 1996)
The competitive ability of Caucasian clover and white clover was assessed at three fertile lowland sites of different ages and one low fertility 21 year old high country site during autumn 1996.
The first lowland site ...
Seed vigour, seedling vigour and seedling establishment of Lotus pedunculatus cav. cv. grasslands maku
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1984)
Initial establishment of Maku lotus at two South Island high country sites was 4.0 and 2.7% compared with about 20% for white clover (Trifolium repens cv. Grasslands Huia) and birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus cv. ...
Interactions between pasture species and management and their implications for evaluating perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) cultivars in dairy systems
(Lincoln University, 2016-07-19)
An index to rank perennial ryegrass cultivars based on their relative economic benefit to pasture-based dairy systems, has been developed in New Zealand (Chapman et al., 2016; DairyNZ) in recent years. Performance values ...
Novel markers for drought resistance in white clover
(Lincoln University, 2011)
Introduction. White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is an out-crossing allotetraploid (2n=4x=32) that acts like a diploid, also called amphidiploid. White clover is a forage crop with a high level of genetic heterogeneity, ...
Dry matter production and weed suppression of multi-species pasture mixtures in the first year of growth
(Lincoln University, 2016-11-14)
Perennial ryegrass, plantain, white clover and red clover were grown in monocultures and up to four- species mixtures in Canterbury, New Zealand. The dry matter production and weed content for the first year of growth ...
Autumn yield of caucasian and white clover pastures under irrigated and drought conditions
(Lincoln University, 1998)
The autumn performance of Caucasian clover, white clover and five grass species: perennial ryegrass, cocksfoot, phalaris, tall fescue and grazing brome were examined at Lincoln University during autumn 1998, after a summer ...
The effect of Neotyphodium grass endophyte on alkaloid profiles, dry matter production and botanical composition of perennial ryegrass pastures
(Lincoln University, 2014)
This study involved three key experiments to examined the effect of Nil endophtye and novel endophyte strains (AR1, AR37, Wild-Type (WT) and NEA2) of perennial ryegrass on dry-matter (DM) production, botanical compositon, ...
Net photosynthesis rate and chlorophyll content of Caucasian and white clover leaves under different temperature regimes
(Lincoln University. Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences., 2005)
Caucasian or kura clover (Trifolium ambiguum) was more productive than white clover (Trifolium repens)in New Zealand pastures. Examining the physiological basis for this difference can provide greater insight into the ...
Testing alternative breeding methods in white clover
(Lincoln University, 2014)
A series of experiments were conducted to estimate the genetic parameters for an elite breeding population of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) in both an irrigated and dryland environment. Data collected from two ...
Grazing management and pasture production of tall fescue-legume mixtures in dryland pastures
(Lincoln University, 2013)
Pasture production and composition and liveweight gain of sheep grazing tall fescue-clover and perennial ryegrass-clover dryland pastures at Lincoln, Canterbury was examined in four experiments from May 2008 to December ...
