Persistence and longevity of stands of birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) are reduced by crown- and root rots. Introduction of L. corniculatus with rhizomes from Morocco is considered an important step towards improving persistence of cultivated birdsfoot trefoil. Rhizome…
Point based biophysical simulation of forage production coupled with 1-km AVHRR-NDVI data was used to determine the feasibility of projecting forage condition 84 days into the future to support stocking decision making for livestock production using autoregressive integrated mov…
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) marker diversity was assessed among nine selected alfalfa (Medicago sativa subsp. sativa L.) germplasms from the USDA-ARS National Plant Germplasm System perennial alfalfa core collection. These germplasms originated from Turkey, Sou…
Field studies were established at two locations (Lingle and Laramie, Wyoming) with two planting (fall and spring) seasons with five specific objectives: 1) to compare forage yield, forage quality, and stand persistence of different grass-legume mixtures; 2) to identify the optim…
