Climatic factors in the distribution of Cenchrus ciliaris ecotypes

1993
The main aim of the present investigations was to critically examine if the magnitude of morphological variabilities of Cenchrus ciliaris and Cenchrus setigerus, can segregate populations of the two grasses in western India, and to evaluate environmental factors correlated with this segregation.

SEED STORAGE STUDIES IN CLONES OF CENCHRUS CILIARIS LINN

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1986
Seed storage studies conducted ambinent conditions with three exotic clones FS 3108, FS 339 and Anjan and one local revealed significant clonal differences in the period of seed dormancy, germination and seedling vigour. Exotic Clone Anjan recorded the highest germination of 89.0% after 12 months of storage, while the local, the lowest of 40.0% after ...

Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) Responses to Tebuthiuron

Weed Science, 1983
Tebuthiuron (N-[5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiozol-2-yl]-N,N′-dimethylurea} pellets (20% ai) applied at 0.6, 1.1, or 2.2 kg ai/ha in the spring at two locations and in the fall at a third location on the South Texas Plains did not significantly decrease buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliarisL.

Absence of antibiotic activities of Cenchrus setigerus and cenchrus ciliaris seed extracts in different polar solvents

Journal of Pharmaceutical Negative Results, 2013
Aim: The aim of present study is to investigate the antibiotic activity of seeds of Cenchrus setigerus and Cenchrus ciliaris extracts, in order to use them as a possible source of new anti-microbial substances against important human pathogens.

The effects of temperature and moisture on after-ripening of Cenchrus ciliaris seeds

Journal of Arid Environments, 2001
After-ripening of Cenchrus ciliaris L. spikelets was modelled during storage at various temperatures and equilibrium relative humidities (e.r.h.). At 40 and 50% e.r.h., the rate of after-ripening increased linearly with increase of storage temperature. The highest after-ripening rate was achieved by storing the seeds in 40°C and 50% e.r.h. At 70% e.r.h.

Nutrient intake of range sheep on a buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) pasture

Small Ruminant Research, 1995
This study was conducted to estimate and compare the organic matter (OM), energy and mineral intakes of grazing lambs in a buffelgrass pasture during 1 year. Vegetation in the study area (10 ha) consisted mainly of buffelgrass (70% of covered area) and shrubs such as blackbrush (Acacia rigidula), palo verde (Cercidium macrum) and cenizo (Leucophyllum ...

Comparative responses of the Savanna grasses Cenchrus ciliaris and Themeda triandra to defoliation

Oecologia, 1989
Two perennial tussock grasses of savannas were compared in a glasshouse study to determine why they differed in their ability to withstand frequent, heavy grazing; Cenchrus ciliaris is tolerant and Themeda triandra is intolerant of heavy grazing. Frequent defoliation at weekly intervals for six weeks reduced shoot biomass production over a subsequent ...

Forage selection by range sheep on a buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) pasture

Small Ruminant Research, 1995
During 1989, six esophageally fistulated male lambs (Pelibuey × Rambouillet), weighing 38.8 ± 1.8 kg, were used to collect monthly extrusa on a buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) dominated pasture. Sampling periods (January through December) lasted 9 days (5 days adaptation followed by 4 days for extrusa collection).

Characterization of buffelgrass (Cenchrus Ciliaris L.) cell suspension cultures

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Plant, 1993
Cell suspension cultures of buffelgrass were established from two types of callus, a friable tan callus and a brown gelatinous callus, using Murashige and Skoog medium containing 13.6 µM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The friable callus formed a rapidly growing suspension culture, designated BG, which had a doubling time of 2.5 days.
