Fruit dehiscence mechanism and release of dimorphic seeds with different germination properties in Commelina erecta.

Commelina erecta is a successful weed species. The aims of this study were to analyse the morpho-anatomy of the fruit and dimorphic seeds of the weed C. erecta, the dynamics and type of dormancy, and water entry.

Glyphosate-induced structural variations in Commelina erecta L. (Commelinaceae).

The purpose of this study was to analyze the structural variations of Commelina erecta, a glyphosate-tolerant weed, produced by this herbicide. Regrowth shoots (vegetative cloning axes) and seedlings and two glyphosate concentrations: 900 and 1800 grams of acid equivalent per hectare (ga.e.

Salinity induced anatomical and morphological changes in Chloris gayana Kunth roots.

Chloris gayana Kunth is a grass species valuable as forage which was introduced into Argentina to be used as pasture in saline soils of subtropical and warm-temperate zones, given its good adaptability to drought, salinity and mild freezing. However, its tolerance varies according to the cultivar. In tetraploid cultivars, important reductions in yield have been observed.
