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 ...

Short-term effects of defoliation intensity on sugar remobilization and N fluxes in ryegrass [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2018 International audienceIn grassland plant communities, the ability of individual plants to regrow after defoliation is of crucial importance since it allows the restoration of active photosynthesis and plant growth.

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.

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,

Effects of time and intensity of defoliation on yield and yield components of corn
پژوهشهای زراعی ایران, 2009 In order to evaluate the effects of time (20, 40, 60 and 100 days after sowing) and intensity of defoliation (0, 33, 66 and 100%) on a corn cultivar ( three way cross 647), a complete randomized block design with split plot arrangement and three ...

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 ...
