What is it about?

The development of the morpho-productive features of species Phalaris arundinacea was studied from 2011 to 2012. The study dwelt on a collection of 1000 of the Romanian Premier cultivar and a Polycross field, set in Banat Plain.

Why is it important?

We assessed the dynamics of the following morpho-productive features: plant height, number of shoots, number of leaves, leaf width, leaf length, and foliar area of a shoot, in accordance with the BBCH code. The growth dynamics of the previously mentioned mean morpho-productive features were measured every 7 days in 20 clones of the Premier.

Perspectives

Our findings revealed that the growth dynamics under the conditions provided on the plain area involve the height growth of 0.96 cm/day. In addition, height growth presents significantly positive correlation with the increase of the foliar area of a shoot, as well as of the entire plant.
