Identification of IPT9 in Brachiaria brizantha (syn. Urochloa brizantha) and expression analyses during ovule development in sexual and apomictic plants. [PDF]
Abstract Background In Brachiaria sexual reproduction, during ovule development, a nucellar cell differentiates into a megaspore mother cell (MMC) that, through meiosis and mitosis, gives rise to a reduced embryo sac. In aposporic apomictic Brachiaria, next to the MMC, other nucellar cells differentiate into aposporic ...

Diverged subpopulations in tropical Urochloa (Brachiaria) forage species indicate a role for facultative apomixis and varying ploidy in their population structure and evolution. [PDF]
Background Urochloa (syn. Brachiaria) is a genus of tropical grasses sown as forage feedstock, particularly in marginal soils. Here we aimed to clarify the genetic diversity and population structure in Urochloa species to understand better how population

Does amount of cut vegetal residue on the canopy influence growth and the structural characteristics of marandu palisadegrass? [PDF]
The pasture mowing in late winter removes the old forage, improving the pasture structure in spring and summer. However, the residue after mowing can affect tillering, thus limiting forage production and the structural characteristics of pasture.

The sward height at the early stockpiling period modifies the structural characteristics of marandu palisadegrass under continuous stocking [PDF]
The control of sward height at the early stockpiling period influences the structural characteristics of stockpiled sward in winter. So, we conducted this work on the Cerrado region of Brazil based on the hypothesis that the reduction of pasture height ...

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos de diferentes doses de cama de frango no índice Soil Plant Analysis Development (SPAD) e na produtividade da matéria seca (MS) de forragem das cultivares (cvs.) de Brachiaria brizantha Marandu, BRS Paiaguás e Xaraés. O experimento foi conduzido em vasos plásticos preenchido com 25 L, a céu aberto.
