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 ...

Forage productivity and morphogenesis of Mesosetum chaseae under defoliation frequency
Research, Society and Development, 2022 The effect of defoliation frequency (14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49 and 56 days) on forage production and morphogenic and structural characteristics of Mesosetum chaseae (Luces) was evaluated under natural field conditions during the dry season, in the savannas of Roraima. The reduction in pasture defoliation frequency resulted in higher green dry matter (GDM)

Defoliation Frequency and Intensity Effects on Pasture Forage Quality [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1990 Both quantity and quality of pasture forage produced generally varies with frequency and intensity of plant defoliation. However, intensity and frequency of defoliation have rarely been evaluated simultaneously. The objective of this study was to quantify forage quality response to simultaneous changes in defoliation treatments over a range of values ...

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.

Grass Defoliation Intensity, Frequency, and Season Effects on Spotted Knapweed Invasion [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1999 Preventing the invasion of uninfested rangeland is central to managing spotted knapweed (Centaurea maculosa Lam.). Intensity, frequency, and season of grass defoliation determine the ability of grasses to tolerate grazing and resist weed invasion.

Agronomy, 2022 Defoliation management can significantly affect subsequent grassland’s forage productivity and sustainability. To assess the type and persistence of native warm-season grass (NWSG) yield responses to changes in defoliation intensity, a five-year harvest ...

Effect of defoliation height on regrowth of timothy and meadow fescue in the generative and vegetative phases of growth [PDF]
, 2003 Post-defoliation carbohydrate stores, leaf area and the number of active meristems are important factors affecting the subsequent regrowth of grasses. Defoliation height affects the magnitude of all these factors.
