Soil Bacterial Diversity Responds to Long-Term Establishment of Perennial Legumes in Warm-Season Grassland at Two Soil Depths [PDF]
The introduction of rhizoma peanut (RP Arachis glabrata Benth) into bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) may require time to develop stable plant–soil microbe interactions as the microbial legacy of the previous plant community may be long-lasting.

Stable isotopes of C and N differ in their ability to reconstruct diets of cattle fed C3–C4 forage diets [PDF]
Stable isotopes are useful for estimating livestock diet selection. The objective was to compare δ13C and δ15N to estimate diet proportion of C3–C4 forages when steers (Bos spp.) were fed quantities of rhizoma peanut (Arachis glabrata; RP; C3) and ...

Managing Bahiagrass in Hybrid Bermudagrass Pastures
Bahiagrass is the most common forage grown in Florida, covering approximately 2.5 million acres. The popularity of bahiagrass in Florida can be attributed to its drought tolerance, low fertility requirements, and persistence even under heavy grazing ...

Genetic Variation for Autumn–Winter Forage Yield in a Segregating Tetraploid F1 Population of Paspalum notatum [PDF]
Autumn–winter forage scarcity limits subtropical livestock systems. This study aimed to: (1) develop a segregating F1 population from parents contrasting in autumn–winter biomass yield (WBY) in tetraploid Paspalum notatum; (2) estimate phenotypic and ...

Lanthanum Promotes Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum) Roots Growth by Improving Root Activity, Photosynthesis and Respiration [PDF]
Lanthanum (La), one of the most active rare earth elements, promotes the growth of turfgrass roots. In this study, the mechanisms by which La influences bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum) growth were evaluated by the analyses of root growth, root activity ...

Belowground Response of a Bahiagrass Pasture to Long-Term Elevated [CO2] and Soil Fertility Management [PDF]
Effects of rising atmospheric CO2 concentration [CO2] on pastures and grazing lands are beginning to be researched, but these important systems remain understudied compared to other agronomic and forest ecosystems.

A Study on Pore Structure and Erosion Resistance of Soil Column Based on CT Scanning Technology
[Objective] The relationship between soil column pore structure and soil erosion resistance for soil columns with Bahiagrass was analyzed in order to provide a scientific basis for the optimal arrangement of plants for soil and water conservation and to ...

Effects of Grass-Based Crop Rotation, Nematicide, and Irrigation on the Nematode Community in Cotton
Plant-parasitic and free-living nematodes – bacterivores, fungivores, omnivores, predators – comprise the nematode community. Nematicide application and crop rotation are important tools to manage plant-parasitic nematodes, but effects on free-living ...
