GROWTH RESPONSE TO DEHYDRATION IN GERMINATING PERIOD OF GRASSES

Erosion control has become important owing to the recent increase of new railroad construction. The erosion control methods with grasses must relate to speedy mechanized earthwork at present. Many new methods to satisfy this demand are being developed, and in any case of these methods, slopes are covered with grasses of foreign origin. Troubled with slope erosion by heavy rainfall before the grass cover is completed, it is finally necessary to stimulate the germination of seeds and growth in early stage. The study was carried out to make clear the growth response to dehydration in germination period of grasses.
