Distribution of Non-Structural Carbohydrates and Root Structure of Plantago lanceolata L. under Different Defoliation Frequencies and Intensities [PDF]
PlantsPlantago lanceolata L. (plantain) increases herbage dry matter (DM) production and quality during warm and dry conditions due to its deep roots and drought tolerance and reduces nitrogen losses in grazing systems compared to traditional pastures. However,

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.

Regrowth dynamics and morpho-physiological characteristics of Plantago lanceolata under different defoliation frequencies and intensities. [PDF]
PLoS ONETraditional 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 ...

In Vitro Ruminal Fermentation and Methane Output of Monospecific, Binary, and Multispecies Pastures Under Two Defoliation Frequencies [PDF]
AnimalsPastures are the dietary basis of grazing systems in regions such as southern Chile, and their botanical composition and management can influence ruminal fermentation and associated by-products.

Lotus tenuis and Schedonorus arundinaceus co-culture exposed to defoliation and water stress
Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2021 The present study aimed to investigate the effect of defoliation frequency (low and high) and water stress (excess or deficit) on biomass production, P and N nutrition, and symbiosis with native soil microorganisms on a Lotus tenuis and Schedonorus ...

Resource availability and repeated defoliation mediate compensatory growth in trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) seedlings [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Plant ecologists have debated the mechanisms used by plants to cope with the impact of herbivore damage. While plant resistance mechanisms have received much attention, plant compensatory growth as a type of plant tolerance mechanisms has been less ...

Revista Facultad Nacional de Agronomía Medellín, 2020 To determine the optimum harvest time of kikuyu grass (Cenchrus clandestinus (Hochst. ex Chiov.) Morrone), according to the number of leaves per tiller and nitrogen fertilization level, an experiment was carried out under greenhouse conditions using a 4 ...
