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

Restoration 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

Journal 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.

Residual sexuality and its seasonal variation in natural apomictic Paspalum notatum accessions

Biologia Plantarum, 2011
Traditionally, tetraploid Paspalum notatum was considered an obligate or a facultative apomict according to cytoembryological analyses. The degree of facultativeness was usually determined by the relative amount of mature ovules bearing aposporous or ...

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

Animal 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.

Composição florística da comunidade infestante em gramados de Paspalum notatum no município de Assis, SP Floristic composition of the weed community in Paspalum notatum Flügge turfgrasses in Assis, SP

Planta Daninha, 2008
Os gramados de Paspalum notatum são os mais disseminados no Brasil, constituindo diferentes locais e propósitos. A infestação por plantas daninhas acarreta perda de qualidade estética quando a finalidade do gramado é ornamental.

Distinct phosphorus release from fresh and legacy biosolids‐amended sandy soils

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 10, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Biosolids are commonly used as soil amendments; however, repeated application of biosolids results in phosphorus (P) accumulation, elevating environmental risks by increasing P loss through runoff and leaching. Predicting soil P loss after ceasing biosolids application remains challenging.

Sward responses of rhizoma peanut–bahiagrass mixtures and bahiagrass monocultures in contrasting on‐farm environments

Crop Science
AbstractIncorporating forage legumes into grass swards has the potential to enhance the sustainability of pasture systems and reduce reliance on nitrogen fertilizers. The aim of this study was to assess the on‐farm performance of bahiagrass (BG; Paspalum notatum Flüggé)–rhizoma peanut (RP; Arachis glabrata Benth.) mixtures compared to BG monocultures ...

Winter cover crop integration on soil nitrogen loss from a subtropical warm‐season pasture field and its potential mitigation

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Bermudagrass is a summer forage crop with high nitrogen (N) demand. Introducing winter cover crops may sustain bermudagrass yields with less fertilizer, reducing environmental N losses. Field trials and lab incubation were carried out to evaluate the effects of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) and ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) as winter ...

Alternative approaches to turf systems: A review of pollinator‐friendly lawns

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract The global decline of pollinators, driven primarily by habitat loss due to urbanization and agricultural expansion, poses significant risks to biodiversity and food security. Turfgrass lawns, which dominate urban and suburban landscapes, offer a largely untapped opportunity to mitigate these declines by adopting pollinator‐friendly management ...
