*Nominated for Presentation Awards

Kuan-Huang Lin, Yuan-Ching Tsai (Department of Agronomy, National Chiayi University, Taiwan)

Glycine tabacina is a perennial wild specie of genus Glycine. It can be found in seashore, cemetery and lawn of school in Penghu, Kinmen and Taiwan. As the government encouraged the ecofriendly farming, cover crops are used to improve soil health and reduce using of herbicide in management schemes that make it possible. Glycine tabacina which is perennial, creeper and has stronger recover ability was noticed. The salt, drought and heat tolerance are also expected. In addition, G. tabacina has the symbiosis rhizobium for nitrogen fixation which is unique for Fabaceae and can present a physical barrier to reduce weed emergence. So it may worth to promote G. tabacina as a cover crop for seashore and barren orchard in Taiwan.
