We review the evidence of how organisms and populations are currently responding to
climate change through phenotypic plasticity, genotypic evolution, changes in distribution …

Turgrfass used on landscapes, parks, sports fields, and golf courses has significant
ecological, environmental, and economic impacts. The economic value of seed production …

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) is an important forage and turfgrass species that is
sensitive to drought stress. The objective of this study was to investigate whether gamma …

Abstract Knowledge of drought resistance of cool‐season turfgrasses is important because
drought stress can occur wherever they are grown even in humid regions with wet climates …

Background Quantitative real-time reverse-transcriptase PCR (qRT-PCR) is an important
technique for analyzing differences in gene expression due to its sensitivity, accuracy and …

Drought is a major environmental stress limiting growth of perennial grasses in temperate
regions. Plant drought tolerance is a complex trait that is controlled by multiple genes …

Temperate pasture‐based dairy farming systems with low input of supplementary feed are
vulnerable to changes in climate through alterations in feed supply and nutritive value …

Background Drought resistance is a complex characteristic closely related to the severity
and duration of stress. Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) has no distinct drought …

Annual ryegrass is a widely cultivated forage grass with rapid growth and high productivity.
However, drought is one of the abiotic stresses affecting ryegrass growth and quality. In this …

The forest environment can be heterogeneous over short physical distances, so that local
adaptation by conifers, especially when selection is strong or gene flow restricted, may occur …
