Regrowth dynamics and morpho-physiological characteristics of Plantago lanceolata under different defoliation frequencies and intensities. [PDF]
Traditional pastures in temperate regions face limitations such as reduced growth and nutritional quality during the summer season. Plantain (P. lanceolata L.) offers advantages like increased yield and decreased nitrogen losses from grazing ruminants ...

Since the 1980s defoliation (often assessed by means of crown transparency) is the most used indicator of tree condition adopted in Europe. It has been criticized for its subjectivity and scarce relation with meaningful endpoints. Here we collated the results of three different studies carried out in France and Italy to investigate the relationship ...
