Reproductive Development of the Apex of Brachiaria decumbens Stapf
Annals of Botany, 1986The development of Brachiaria decumbens tillers, as based on apex morphology, may be conveniently divided into six phases. These are the (1) vegetative, (2) raceme initiation, (3) spikelet initiation, (4) spikelet differentiation, (5) inflorescence exsertion and anthesis, and (6) seed maturation phases.

Defoliation and Burning Effects on the Tillering of Brachiaria decumbens
The Journal of Applied Ecology, 1988(1) Swards of Brachiaria decumbens cv. Basilisk were cut at 0 and 10 cm height and the cut material removed, or cut, field-dried and burnt 0, 4, or 8 days after cutting with a fuel load of 400 or 1600 g m-2. (2) Tillering was enhanced by cutting to ground level and removing surface residues, and by burning a light fuel load immediately after cutting ...

Potassium distribution and use efficiency in Brachiaria decumbens
2001A greenhouse hydroponic experiment was carried out with the forage Brachiaria decumbens Stapf. to study the effects of potassium supply on potassium distribution in the plant shoots and the potassium use efficiency. A nutrient solution experiment with eight potassium rates (0, 9.75, 39, 78, 156, 234, 312 and 468 mg L−1) was conducted in a complete ...

Study of experimentally induced lesions in sheep by grazing Brachiaria decumbens
Toxicon, 2002A histologic and ultrastructural study of the alterations found in the lymph nodes and livers of nine sheep with experimental cholangiohepatopathy by grazing on Brachiaria decumbens has been performed. Sheep were euthanized in three groups, on the 77th, 89th, and 150th days of the experimental feeding.

Photosensitisation and crystal‐associated cholangiohepatopathy in sheep grazing Brachiaria decumbens
Australian Veterinary Journal, 1991SUMMARY Two outbreaks of photosensitivity and jaundice in sheep grazing the grass, Brachiaria decumbens, in West Java in 1983 and 1990 are described. Aggregates of acicular clefts and crystals were present in bile canaliculi, bile ducts, Kupffer cells, hepatocytes and in kidney tubules.

Chelate-induced phytoextraction of metal polluted soils with Brachiaria decumbens
Chemosphere, 2006Chelate-induced phytoextraction with high biomass plant species has been proposed for the clean-up of heavy metal polluted soils. In the current work, the effect of the application of two different chelating agents, i.e. EDTA and EDDS, on the metal phytoextraction capacity of Brachiaria decumbens was studied.

The concentration of selected minerals and phytate in Malaysian Brachiaria decumbens.
Veterinary and human toxicology, 2001Samples of Brachiaria decumbens collected from 5 farms representing the Peninsular Malaysia were subjected to selected trace mineral and phytate analyses to explain the pathogenesis of B decumbens intoxication. Concentrations of Cu, Zn, Fe and Mo were comparable to other grasses while that of phytate was low. The molar ratios of Cu:Zn, Cu:Mo, and Cu:Fe

Hepatotoxic constituents in the rumen of Brachiaria decumbens intoxicated sheep.
Veterinary and human toxicology, 1992Spectroscopic examinations of purified extracts of the rumen content of sheep intoxicated by Brachiaria decumbens revealed the presence of a mixture of sapogenins, identified as 3-spirostanols. These isomeric steroid sapogenins (C27H44O3) are believed the toxic principles in causing toxicity in sheep after feeding on B. decumbens.
