Belowground biomass characteristics and soil organic C accumulation of bahiagrass‐based forage systems with or without legumes

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Grasslands are important terrestrial ecosystems that provide feed for livestock, support soil conservation and nutrient cycling, and store soil carbon (C). In many grazed grasslands, restricted nitrogen (N) inputs from fertilizers and minimal legume presence may constrain belowground biomass accumulation and soil C storage because of limited N.

Establishing rhizoma peanut–bahiagrass mixtures

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2022
Rhizoma peanut (RP; Arachis glabrata Benth.) is a perennial legume with ability to persist and spread in mixtures with C4 grasses. Most RP establishment studies focus on its use as a monoculture hay crop, and more information is needed on establishment ...

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands

open access: yesGrassland Research, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 44-55, March 2026.
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

Intraspecific tetraploid hybrids of Paspalum notatum: agronomic evaluation of segregating progeny

open access: yesScientia Agricola
: For many decades, animal production in southern Brazil has been based on native forage grasses. Paspalum notatum Flügge (bahiagrass) is one of the most frequently used native grass in southern Brazil. The native germplasm of P.

Effectiveness of low‐density high‐throughput marker platform and easy‐to‐measure traits for genomic prediction of biomass yield in oat (Avena sativa L.)

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a promising strategy for accelerating genetic gains of complex traits in breeding programs. Despite the recent advancements in high‐throughput genotyping technologies, the selection of the type of marker systems needed for GS remains challenging in breeding programs.

Herbage Responses and Grazing Performance of Mature Horses in Warm-Season Perennial Grass–Legume Mixed Pastures

open access: yesGrasses
The pasture–animal interface of warm-season perennial grass–legume mixed pastures has never been investigated in forage-based equine systems. Therefore, this 2-year study investigated the herbage and animal responses under 84-day continuous stocking in ...

Estimating costs of ecological restoration across degradation scenarios in South Brazilian grasslands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction Grassland ecosystems are among the most threatened worldwide, and the Campos Sulinos—a region of subtropical grasslands in southern Brazil—experiences degradation driven by multiple factors. This study provides initial cost estimates for different restoration approaches, offering guidance for technical and budgetary planning ...

Variation in carbon sequestration in response to water limitation in a diverse panel of switchgrass genotypes

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has been identified as a “model” herbaceous species for bioenergy production by the United States Department of Energy. Switchgrass can provide several ecosystem services, including biodiversity support, soil erosion control, runoff filtering, and reclamation of marginal land.

Complete Extruded Diet: How Does Equine Fecal Microbiota Change During Intake Adaptation?

open access: yesAnimal Science Journal, Volume 97, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the gradual adaptation of the fecal bacterial community and in vitro fermentative capacity of horses fed a complete extruded diet (CED). Twelve geldings weighing 370 kg were removed from a native pasture and fed coastcross hay (Cynodon spp) for 7 days.
