Root system properties of two Festulolium cultivars under different irrigation regimes
Original language description
Characteristics of root system of two grass intergeneric hybrids, forage cultivars 'Bečva' and 'Felina' (F. arundinacea x L. multiflorum) were investigated. Seedlings were planted in plastic tubes one meter long filled with fine sand. Doses of water based on long-term precipitations amounts of south Moravia were divided into four (moist treatment) and two (dry treatment) portions per month. After three months of cultivation plants were removed and root systems were scanned under high resolution. Imageswere processed by WinRhizo software to measure root properties: length, surface, average diameter and volume. After analysis roots were dried up and weighted. Longer irrigation intervals did not cause any significant differences in the root properties ofcultivar 'Bečva'. Total weights were 5. 30 g (dry) and 5.35 g (moist). 75 % of root biomass was allocated in depth 0 -- 50 cm in both treatments. The biomass of roots of cv. 'Felina' was only 2.12 g in dry treatment compared to 5.44 g in
