EUROPEAN CENTRAL FORAGES DATABASES 21 M. Tavares de Sousa (Portugal), the Research Institute of Plant Production (Czech Republic), Piešt'any (Slovakia) and AARI, Izmir (Turkey). The Research Institute for Fodder Crops Troubsko, Czech Republic (J. Nedelnik) wished to be involved as complementary partner. R. Sackville Hamilton will contact Frank Bisby, University of Southampton 12 with regard to the possible resubmission of the Vicieae project and provide this information to the Chair for distribution to interested members of the Group (Bulgaria, Cyprus and Turkey are interested in participation). BAL, Irdning (Austria) will consider the planning of a project for the in situ conservation of forages in marginal and mountainous areas , to be submitted to the EU. The Working Group gave its strong support to the implementation of this idea in collaboration with NGB, Italy and Bulgaria. 12 Now University of Reading, see p. 69.
22 ECP/GR FORAGES WORKING GROUP Collecting activities The following countries reported on their collecting activities: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Russian Federation, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom and F.R. Yugoslavia. The full reports are given in Part II, Presented papers, section Collecting activities. Research activities Reports of ongoing or concluded research activities (see also Part II) Austria - Recultivation of alpine areas with seed of alpine plants Summer and winter tourism and the associated interventions, together with natural erosion, cause severe damages in the Alps every year. The recultivation of such areas is very difficult. The use of seed of lowland species, not really adapted to the climatic conditions, is expensive and not satisfying. To obtain a permanent green cover, a well-adapted vegetation of alpine plants is required. At BAL Gumpenstein the suitability of 12 alpine species of wellchosen grasses and Leguminosae (Festuca nigrescens (Lam.) Asch. et Ev., F. pseudodura Steud., F. supina Schur, F. violacea Gand. s.stv., Phleum alpinum L.emend. Gaudin, P. hirsutum Honck., Poa alpina L., Trifolium badium Schreb., T. pratense L. subsp. nivale Arc.) were tested for commercial seed production in low altitudes. Seed properties and the 1000-seed weight are described. The germinative capacity increased after cultivation and was equal to related lowland species. The seed productivity for most of the alpine grasses was surprisingly high. Some provenances of Poa alpina and Festuca nigrescens showed an annual yield of more than 1000 kg/ha. Contrary to a widespread view the research results clearly showed that seed multiplication of those 12 species in lowland regions is possible. In the last 5 years, many recultivation trials in alpine areas have been undertaken with this material. The results emphasize the value and the possibilities of the use of alpine seed mixtures for permanent recultivation in alpine areas. Czech Republic • The following joint research projects are coordinated by the Research Institute for Plant Production, Prague: - National programme for the conservation and utilization of the plant genepool. - Mapping, gathering and conservation of landraces and wild species related to cultivated crops in the Czech Republic and bordering European regions. Other research projects are coordinated as follows: • Research Institute for Fodder Crops in Troubsko - Use of forage crops and other species in farming and landscaping. - New crops for cultivation in marginal areas and their energetic and industrial use. - Collecting of and research on clovers genetic resources. • Grassland Research Station in Zubrí - Selection and evaluation of wild grass species suitable for the enhancing of biodiversity of perennial grass swards. - Creation of regional collections of wild grasses and herbaceous plant populations for the restoration of flower grassland.
