Soil Physicochemical Changes Following Buffelgrass Establishment in Mexico

Arid Soil Research and Rehabilitation, 1999
Clearing brush from rangeland and seeding it to buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) is a popular range improvement practice in Mexico, but no data are available on the effects of these practices on soil properties. Twenty-nine study sites were randomly selected across 3 major climatic regions in Mexico: 13 in the northwest, 11 in the northeast, and 5 in

Hot child in the city: Drivers of urban buffelgrass presence in Tucson, Arizona

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2025.
Urban environments experience high levels of anthropogenic disturbance and have concentrated human populations, so they are at high risk of invasion by non‐native species like buffelgrass. Here we examine how urban features such as high‐traffic roadways, vacant lots, and alleys influence buffelgrass abundance in residential areas and whether ...

Impact of Nigrospora oryzae‐Derived Natural Products on Photosynthesis and Oxidative Stress in Eichhornia crassipes

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Interest in natural herbicides has been growing due to government policies restricting synthetic herbicide use in many countries. In that regard, this study investigates the potential of Nigrospora oryzae extract as a natural herbicide against the aquatic invasive weed Eichhornia crassipes.

Quality of buffelgrass seeds from different harvests

REVISTA DELOS
A obtenção de sementes de alta qualidade depende em grande parte do momento da colheita, que deve ocorrer preferencialmente quando as sementes tiverem completado o processo de maturação fisiológica. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar lotes de sementes de duas cultivares de capim-buffel, colhidas em épocas diferentes.

Effect of cold stress at cellular and foliar level and regrowth capacity of three Cenchrus ciliaris L. cultivars: Americana, Biloela and Texas 4464

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2019
Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) a native pasture species of Africa is widely used in arid regions because of its forage productivity and quality. It could become serious invasive species, not only for crops but also in natural vegetation. Buffelgrass

Pollination biology of Gossypium turneri: Autonomous selfing provides reproductive assurance in an endangered wild cotton from Sonora, Mexico

Plant Species Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, Page 260-274, September 2024.
Gossypium turneri is a wild cotton that is currently threatened by tourism development and an invasive species. Our results indicate that this species has the ability of autonomous self‐pollination by style curvature, providing reproductive assurance when pollinators are scarce. This finding is relevant as current disturbance might disrupt interactions

Recommendations for incorporating invasive species into U.S. climate change adaptation planning and policy

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2024.
To enhance the nation's resilience to climate change with associated benefits for biodiversity conservation, five recommendations are developed for U.S. federal agencies to effectively incorporate invasive species into climate adaptation planning efforts. Abstract Executive Order No. 14008 mandated that U.S.

Unravelling the genomic and environmental diversity of the ubiquitous Solirubrobacter

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 8, July 2024.
Solirubrobacter is an often overlooked bacterium prevalent in soil and root zones, exhibiting unique adaptability. Our comparative genomic and metagenomic analyses reveal its widespread presence and a specialized gene set contributing to its resilience in diverse environments and its preference for rhizospheres.
