It has been reported from a wide array of habitats however, soils from cogongrass populations have never been characterized. Planting proportions were 0, 33.3, 66.7, and 100% of alang-alang (planting densities of 0, 1, 2 and 3 plants/pot) combined with 100, 66.7, 33.Įcotype variability and edaphic characteristics for cogongrass ( Imperata cylindrica) populations in MississippiĬogongrass ( Imperata cylindrica) is a highly invasive perennial grass in the southeastern United States and is found on all continents except Antartica. The experiment was arranged in factorial combinations of four planting proportions, two levels of nitrogen fertilization and three harvesting intervals with three replications. The objectives of this experiment were to determine dry matter yield and competitiveness of alang-alang ( Imperata cylindrica) and Guinea grass (Panicum maximum) in intercropping. This.ĭry Matter Yield And Competitiveness Of Alang-alang ( Imperata Cylindrica) And Guinea Grass (Panicum Maximum) In Intercropping In the southeastern United States, the successful invasion of cogongrass ( Imperata cylindrica) has sometimes been attributed to hybridization with the previously naturalized Imperata brasiliensis. Interspecific hybridization is cited as one potential mechanism for increased invasiveness, particularly among some grass species.

The other day, a young local biologist asked me what ‘lalang’ ( Imperata cylindrica) looked like.
