Productivity of Cenchrus Ciliaris in Relation to Rain-Fall and Fertilization [PDF]

Journal of Range Management, 1996
Forage for livestock is always in short supply in the arid zone of India. Cenchrus ciliaris L. is one of the major forage grasses cultivated in this region. We studied its productivity in relation to rainfall and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilization in the Indian arid zone at Jodhpur during 1983 to 1992. Factorial combinations of 4 rates of N (

Molecular characterization of new Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) genotypes

Plant Omics, 2020
Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L. Link) is an African agamospermous grass that has been widely introduced into arid regions of the world to improve rangelands for cattle production and as a result, it has invaded adjacent habitats. Cenchrus ciliaris is apomictic, a condition that is normally associated with low genetic variation within populations, but

Effect of Spacing on Seed Yield of Indigenous Rangeland and Forage Grass Species Grown under Drip Irrigation

Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2009
Two indigenous rangeland forage species, Cenchrus ciliaris and Coelachyrum piercei, were investigated for their response to varying inter-row (50 and 100-cm) and inter plant spacing (25, 50 and 100-cm) under drip irrigation along with the perennial ...

Screening of Cenchrus ciliaris L. for biological activity

South African Journal of Botany, 2002
Cenchrus ciliaris L. (Poaceae) is a commonly occurring perennial grass in South Africa. The underground runners are used in Zulu traditional medicine for ailments including 'body pain', menstrual disorders and urinary infections. Water, ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts were prepared from the underground and leaf material of C. ciliaris plants.

Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with
