Long-term storage of forage legumes greatly alters the hard seed breakdown pattern in situ

Robert J. Harrison et al.

Summary: The storage time of seeds significantly affects the pattern of hard seed breakdown in annual legumes, with stored seeds showing a substantial reduction in hard seed content after exposure, while fresh seeds remain mostly unaffected.

The breeding system of Ornithopus sativus Brot. subsp. sativus

Bradley J. Nutt et al.

Summary: Ornithopus sativus Brot. possesses genetic traits suitable for breeding as a forage legume, with white flower color being inherited recessively to pink and early flowering showing genetic dominance. Cross-pollination opportunities exist within the species, but caution is needed to prevent shifts in population structure from selection pressure.

Summer sowing: A successful innovation to increase the adoption of key species of annual forage legumes for agriculture in Mediterranean and temperate environments

Brad J. Nutt et al.

Summary: Summer sowing is an innovative method to increase the adoption of recently domesticated species of hard seeded annual legumes in Mediterranean and temperate Agriculture. The research, conducted in Western Australia and New South Wales, showed that summer sowing can result in higher seedling density and significantly increased herbage production compared to conventional sowing methods.
