Abstract
1. A partial review of literature dealing with the effect of temperature on the growth and chemical composition of forage and the other crops is presented. 2. Corn, oats and red clover were grown in glasshouses and the effect of different temperature treatments on their growth and chemical composition was determined. The temperatures used in this experiment were extraordinarily higher than those in the field conditions. 3. A high temperature fastened the appearance of leaf on the main stalk of corn and leaf on the main culm of oats, tasseling of corn and heading of oats. The height of corn and oats was taller in the high temperature plot than in the low temperature one. The flowering time of red clover was fastened in the high temperature plot, while the growth type was shorter in the high temperature plot than in the low temperature one. 4. The percentage of each internode length to total internode length of corn was higher in the high temperature plot than in the low temperature one from 4th to 7th internode, whereas in the internodes above 7th internode reverse relation was shown. 5. The percentage of clinging portion of corn and oats leaf grown under the high temperature condition was larger than that grown under the low temperature one. 6. It seems that the extraordinarily high temperature interfered with smooth emergence of oats head. The blade length of corn and oats was larger in the high temperature plot than in the low temperature one, while the blade width was larger in the latter than in the former. 7. In this experiment, average green and air dry weights of each organ of corn and red clover produced in the high temperature plot were much less than those produced in the low temperature one, whereas there was the reverse relation in oats. 8. Lower leaf of corn was higher in the crude protein content than upper one. This trend was more pronounced in the high temperature plot than in the low temperature one. Each organ of three crops grown under the high temperature condition was higher in the crude protein content than those grown under the low temperature one with the exception of red clover stem. 9. The crude fiber content of leaf and stalk of corn and head of oats grown under the high temperature condition was higher than those grown under the low temperature one. 10. Each organ of oats and red clover did not show difference in the crude fiber content between the two plots. 11. The ether extract content of corn stalk and tassel and all organs of oat was higher in the high temperature plot than in the low one. 12. The nitrogen-free extract content of corn leaf, all organs of oats and red clover was higher in the low temperature plot than in the high temperature one. 11. The stalk and tassel of corn and all orga ns of oats and red clover grown under the high temperature condition were higher in the crude ash content than those grown under the low tempera ture one. 14. The lignin content of corn stalk and leaf and red clover stem was higher in the high temperature plot than in the low one. 15. The leaf and stalk of corn, leaf and main culm of oats and red clover leaf and stem grown under the low temperature condition were higher in the reducing sugar, sucrose and crude starch than those grown under the high temperature condition.
