A chronology of subterranean clover burr detachment mechanics and implications for seed harvestability

Abstract: Seed retention has not been evaluated for subterranean clover ( Trifolium subterraneum L.), because its geocarpic seed-bearing burrs are currently harvested by suction systems. Development of improved harvest methods requires knowledge of subterranean clover seed retention characteristics and their changes with plant development. This study evaluates burr attachment and peduncle tensile strength during burr maturity until plant senescence across the three subspecies: subterr… Show more
