Medición de calidad en semillas de Andropogon gayanus
Andropogon gayanus es una nueva especie de gramínea para América Latina, liberada formalmente en cinco países. Actualmente, fuentes de semilla comercial se están incrementando y comercializando lo cual exige el conocimiento y la disponibilidad de medidas de calidad.

Seedbanks in this grassy woodland provide a rich biodiversity reservoir which persisted after low‐intensity fire. Patterns of species replacement suggest that activities which diminish above‐ground plant diversity (such as overgrazing or conversion to forest) will impact biodiversity at larger spatial scales, while soil seedbanks are likely more robust

Despite its rapid growth and adaptability, Andropogon (Andropogon gayanus 12,465) was not preserved to address the severe feed deficit in the prolonged dry season in Ethiopia. Determining how the harvesting stage and additives (AD) affect the silage quality, animal preference, and digestibility of Andropogon was the objective of the current study ...

ABSTRACT The presence of invasive species often makes the use of prescribed fire for native grassland restoration challenging, as fire could also facilitate exotic plant invasion. The outcome of fire treatment may depend on variation in soil environments.

Invasive Andropogon gayanus (gamba grass) is an ecosystem transformer of nitrogen relations in Australian savanna [PDF]
Invasion by the African grass Andropogon gayanus is drastically altering the understory structure of oligotrophic savannas in tropical Australia. We compared nitrogen (N) relations and phenology of A. gayanus and native grasses to examine the impact of invasion on N cycling and to determine possible reasons for invasiveness of A. gayanus.

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Permanence Risks to Biodiversity and Nature‐Based Carbon Offsets
ABSTRACT Biodiversity and nature‐based carbon offsets are central to strategies addressing biodiversity loss and climate change. Their credibility depends on permanence—the expectation that biodiversity gains or sequestered carbon persist at least as long as the impacts they compensate for, or in perpetuity.

Grasses’ nutritional characteristics and management are fundamental for grazing cattle to guarantee sustainability in tropical conditions. This study aims to analyze the pastures’ chemical composition variability and methane emissions in different Colombian ecoregions and productive activities using digital bromatology data.
