RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE OF SOME ELEMENTS OF TECHNOLOGY ON MORPHO-PRODUCTIVE PARAMETERS IN Bromus inermis Leyss. SPECIES

Abstract

The research-conducted during the period 2022-2023 at the Research and Development Station for Meadows, Vaslui, aims to evaluate the influence of fertilization and the distance between plant rows on the plants height (cm), shoots number (shoots·m-2), panicle length (cm), number of nodes per inflorescence and number of branches per inflorescence for smooth brome (Bromus inermis Leyss.), variety Mihaela. A bifactorial experiment, 3×5 type, was set up according to the method of subdivided plots, with the plot harvestable area of 20 m2, in three replicates and the studied factors were the distance between rows with three graduations and fertilization with five graduations being studied the interaction between the two factors. During the growing season, numerous plant measurements were made according to the proposed methodology. Within the study, it was found that by applying mineral fertilizers and by sowing at bigger distances between rows higher plants were obtained, with a higher number of shoots·m2, also the panicle length, the number of nodes per inflorescence and number of branches per inflorescence were higher.
