Zebra Finches forage on seed from invasive Buffel Grass, but prefer seed from two common native grasses

Emu - Austral Ornithology, 2018
Inland Australia is being transformed by invasive Cenchrus ciliaris (Buffel Grass) which is displacing native grasses. Zebra Finches (Taeniopygia guttata) forage on C.

Correction - Salinity response of cultivars of buffel grass ( Cenchrus ciliaris )

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, 1970
Five buffel grass cultivars were grown in solution culture at levels of 0.5, 40, 80, and 160 m. equiv. NaCl/l. Yields did not differ between cultivars at the highest level of NaCl, and the more productive cultivars under low salinity conditions, Tarewinnabar, Biloela, and American, suffered greatest potential yield reduction and accumulated highest ...

Restoring Degraded Rangelands in Northern Kenya Using Buffel Grass

Abstract— This review paper seeks to explore the potential of buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) in the fight against land degradation within arid and semiarid areas of the world, especially Kenya. Soil degradation impacts 1. 5 billion people globally and more than 60% of the Earth’s land surface experience poverty, hunger, and environmental pollution.

Buffel Grass Economic Impact Assessment

Buffel grass is a fast-growing plant introduced to Australia to improve pasture productivity, especially in dry regions. However, it has become a serious environmental and cultural threat, particularly in Central Australia. It spreads rapidly, outcompetes native plants, increases fire risk, and damages culturally significant Aboriginal sites.

Agrobacterium-mediated transient GUS gene expression in buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.).

Journal of applied genetics, 2004
The study was conducted to standardize a protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.). Embryogenic calli, produced from one-year-old mature seeds of buffel grass, were used as target cells for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. A.
