| The study was carried out to determine tensile and shearing properties of leaves in cultivars (Ba11356 and Ba11358) of festulolium (Festulolium loliaceum), compared with those of diploid (Ba11353 and Aurora) and tetraploid (Ba10855 and Prospero) cultivars of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne). Four successive samples of grass leaves were taken from pure stands of third-year swards during July to September, 2004 in Obihiro, Japan. Tensile strength was measured using a 100 N load cell of the breaking test machine. Shear strength was measured about 5 mm apart from a broken point in the tensile test using a pair of the scissors. Cross-sectional area, DM weight and width of leaves were significantly higher in tetraploid perennial and festulolium than in... |
