Perennial ryegrass is an important pasture and forage plant, and is used in many pasture seed mixes. In fertile soil, it produces a high grass yield, and in Britain and Ireland, it is frequently sown for short-term ley grassland , often with red or white clover ( Trifolium pratense or T. repens ).
Ryegrasses are also used in soil erosion control programs. It is the principal grazing grass in New Zealand where some 10 million kilograms of certified seed are produced every year. There is a large range of cultivars. The primary species found worldwide and used both for lawns and as a forage crop is perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne).
Lolium multiflorum (Italian rye-grass, [2] annual ryegrass) is a ryegrass native to temperate Europe, though its precise native range is unknown. [3] It is a herbaceous annual, biennial, or perennial grass that is grown for silage, and as a cover crop. [4] [5] It is also grown as an ornamental grass.
Common names by which it is known include annual ryegrass, a name also given to Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), rigid ryegrass, stiff darnel, Swiss ryegrass and Wimmera ryegrass. [1] It is a native of southern Europe, northern Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent and is grown as a forage crop, particularly in Australia ...
Leymus cinereus is a perennial bunchgrass forming large, tough clumps up to about 2 metres (6 + 1 ⁄ 2 feet) tall [4] and sometimes exceeding 1 m (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 ft) in diameter. It has a large, fibrous root system and sometimes small rhizomes.
Leymus arenarius can grow exponentially in terms of height and root development in the presence of nitrogen.L. arenarius is known to take up nitrogen into its root system. . Increasing nitrogen concentrations can promote growth, as over time, the plant mass above the surface may not change, but nitrogen will accumulate in the root syst
Once the plant has matured, the manystem wild rye grass can live a long life. The surroundings of the mature Leymus multicaulis can influence the lifespan of the plant. For example, if the mature plant is in an area with high concentration of nitrogen, it is in a healthy environment and will have a longer lifespan. If there are high ...
Leymus chinensis, commonly known as false wheatgrass [1] or Chinese rye grass, is a species of wild rye native to China, Korea, Mongolia and Russia. Description [ edit ]
