Abstract

THE EFFECTS of wind velocity on Trifolium repens L. cv. 'Grasslands Huia' white clover seedlings were examined in a wind tunnel. Three experiments were conducted, each at a different wind velocity, in which wind was applied to seedlings at three distinct stages of growth (cotyledons, unifoliate leaf and trifoliate Icaf) for three periods of time (two, four and six days). The wind velocities were 5.0, 7.5 and 10.0 m/s. In all experiments total plant, shoot and root dry weights and shoot/root ratios were determined after 28 days.
