Molecular and Structural Characterization of Foam Proteins from Mahanarva spectabilis (Distant, 1909) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Nymphs Reveals Adaptive Features and Potential Targets for Pest Control. [PDF]

Arch Insect Biochem Physiol
Nymphs of Mahanarva spectabilis produce a protective foam that supports survival, reduces plant damage, and contributes to adult population establishment. Proteomic profiling combined with protein sequencing and structural modeling revealed foam proteins enriched in functional domains associated with environmental resilience.

Toward in vitro fertilization in Brachiaria spp. [PDF]

, 2010
Brachiaria are forage grasses widely cultivated in tropical areas. In vitro pollination was applied to accessions of Brachiaria spp. by placing pollen of non-dehiscent anthers on a solid medium near isolated ovaries.

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

Anim Sci J
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.

The effect of ensiling and haymaking on the concentrations of steroidal saponin in two Brachiaria grass species

Ciência Rural, 2015
Brachiaria (signalgrass) is now the most widely used tropical grass genus in Central and South America. However, Brachiaria spp. can cause hepatogenous photosensitization in livestock.

Meiotic behavior of Brachiaria decumbens hybrids

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015
Brachiaria decumbens is a forage grass of inestimable value for livestock in Brazil due to its production of good quality forage even when planted on acid and poor soils, although it is susceptible to pasture spittlebugs. Only one cultivar, cv. Basilisk, has been used as the pollen donor in crosses with Brachiaria ruziziensis since 1988 at Embrapa Gado

Experimental poisoning by Brachiaria decumbens in rabbits [PDF]

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2018
ABSTRACT: Brachiaria spp. are important sources of forage for ruminants in Brazil, due to the easy cultivation, good resistance to drought, good adaptation to different soils and low maintenance cost. However, the ingestion of this grass has been related to photosensitization outbreaks in cattle and sheep with significant economic losses.

CHLOROPHYLL FLUORESCENCE IN Brachiaria decumbens AND Brachiaria ruziziensis SUBMITTED TO HERBICIDES [PDF]

Planta Daninha, 2017
ABSTRACT Different doses of herbicides can promote a differentiated physiological response in grasses of the same genus. This study has been proposed in order to evaluate physiological responses of B. ruziziensis and B. decumbens submitted to glyphosate and fluazifop-p-butyl. Treatments were distributed in a 2 x 6 factorial design with five repetitions,

Alelopatia de duas espécies de braquiária em sementes de três espécies de estilosantes Allelopathy of two brachiaria species in seeds of three species of stylosanthes

Ciência Rural, 2012
A alelopatia é muito comum em gramíneas como a Brachiaria brizantha e B. decumbens, podendo representar um problema em pastagens consorciadas com Stylosanthes, já que, nessa situação, a perpetuação da leguminosa depende da ressemeadura natural. Apesar da
