Abstract

The effects were measured of 60% defoliation at the stem-elongation, heading and anthesis stages, and of inflorescence removal, on the growth of spaced plants of green panic grown under conditions of adequate nutrition and moisture supply. Attention is directed to the manner in which components of growth operated in a compensatory, self-regulatory fashion, reducing the effects of defoliation on plant growth, and general conclusions from the three papers of this series concerning pasture defoliation practice are drawn.
