Forage Biomass and Chemical Composition of Buffelgrass Genotypes in the Semi‐Arid Region of Brazil

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Forage improvement in semi‐arid regions requires the identification of genotypes capable of maintaining productivity under climatic variability and chronic water scarcity. This study evaluated six buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes over two production years in northern Minas Gerais, Brazil, to characterize their agronomic, morphological, and ...

The challenges of rehabilitating denuded patches of a semi-arid environment in Kenya

open access: yes, 2010
Land degradation is a major problem in the semi-arid environments of Sub-Saharan Africa. Fighting land degradation is essential to ensure the sustainable and long-term productivity of the habited semiarid lands.

Morphogenic, structural, and productive characteristics of Cenchrus ciliaris L. grown using different levels of caprine and ovine biofertilize

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2017
The aim of this study was to evaluate the morphogenic, structural, and productive characteristics of Cenchrus ciliaris L. in response to different doses of biofertilizers that originate from the anaerobic biodigestion of goat and sheep fecal matter on ...

Predicted Range Shifts of Non‐Native Grasses in Response to Climate Change Are Influenced by Photosynthetic Pathway: A Case Study in the Hawaiian Islands

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Grasses comprise three main photosynthetic pathway variants (C3‐BOP, C3‐PACMAD and C4‐PACMAD hereafter referred to as C4). We sought to confirm climate niche differences among these photosynthetic pathway variants and assessed whether predicted non‐native grass range shift patterns with climate change differ among photosynthetic pathway ...

Integrated Systems Under No‐Tillage, and Improved Pastures: One Pathway Toward Restoring Soil Carbon and Organic Matter Pools in the Brazilian Semi‐Arid Region

open access: yesSoil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
ABSTRACT In Brazil, the semi‐arid region has undergone significant degradation due to deforestation for agriculture, livestock and the use of firewood. In this context, nature‐based solutions (NbS) that prioritize environmental sustainability in semi‐arid regions are crucial.

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 461-485, March 2026.
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Leaf expansion and leaf turnover of perennial C4 grasses growing at moderately low temperatures

open access: yesRevista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2017
Understanding the mechanisms by which some C4 grasses grow more than others at moderately low temperatures (~12-20ºC) is valuable to select materials to lengthen the growing season.

Land tenure contributions to protected area growth under alternative conservation targets in the Australian monsoon tropics

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract As the global protected area (PA) network expands to meet international targets, it is important to assess whether traditional reliance on public land will suffice for projected PA growth or whether other tenures, such as Indigenous or pastoral lands, may increasingly contribute.
