Development of lucerne root morphology traits in lucerne-grass mixture in relation to forage yield and root disease score
Original language description
It is a common practice to grow lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) in mixture with grass. The development of lucerne root morphology along with concomitant forage mixture growth, however, has been rarely studied in multi-year field experiments. Our objectives were: (i) to assess the effect of a grass component on lucerne root trait development, (ii) to evaluate changes in forage yield and aboveground traits in the lucerne monocultures and lucerne-grass mixtures and (iii) to investigate the relationships between root traits and lucerne yield, total forage yield, as well as forage aboveground traits, using multivariate methods. The negative impact of the presence of a grass component on lucerne root morphology development was observed only in combination with the higher lucerne sowing ratio (L90), with reduced intensity of root branching and increased depth of the first lateral root. Root potential index was an effective indicator for monitoring root development and was even effective for comparing lucerne v
