Defoliation Dynamics in Kikuyugrass Pastures Subjected to Intensities of Defoliation
Agronomy, 2020 Some recent papers have recommended moderate intensities of defoliation in order to maximize herbage intake at different time-scales. Most of them, however, did not assess the grazing dynamics of individual tillers during the stocking period.

Effects of Defoliation Timing and Intensity on Yield Components and Grain Quality of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) [PDF]
PlantsUnderstanding plant tolerance to defoliation is crucial for sustainable pest management and reducing pesticide use in food production. This study explores quinoa’s (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) responses to foliar damage, which have been largely unexamined.

Variation of Stem Radius in Response to Defoliation in Boreal Conifers
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 In the long term, defoliation strongly decreases tree growth and survival. Insect outbreaks are a typical cause of severe defoliation. Eastern spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana Clem.) outbreaks are one of the most significant disturbances of Picea
