Root production in a subtropical pasture is mediated by cultivar and defoliation severity
Background Grasslands occupy significant land area and account for a large proportion of the global soil carbon stock, yet the direct effects of grazing and genotypic composition on relationships between shoot and root production are poorly resolved ...

Sex-specific responses of Populus deltoides to defoliation
There has been an increasing interest in understanding the differential effects of sexual dimorphism on plant stress responses. However, there is no clear pattern in the responses of the sexes to defoliation.

Effect of defoliation height on regrowth of timothy and meadow fescue in the generative and vegetative phases of growth [PDF]
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.

Linking forest diversity and tree health: preliminary insights from a large-scale survey in Italy [PDF]
Forest health is currently assessed in Europe (ICP Forests monitoring program). Crown defoliation and dieback, tree mortality, and pathogenic damage are the main aspects considered in tree health assessment. The worsening of environmental conditions (i.e.

Invasion of winter moth in New England: Effects of defoliation and site quality on tree mortality. [PDF]
Widespread and prolonged defoliation by the European winter moth, Operophtera brumata L., has occurred in forests of eastern Massachusetts for more than a decade and populations of winter moth continue to invade new areas of New England.

Relationship between soybean plant defoliation and Asian soybean rust severity
Data from experiments conducted in the field with eight fungicide mixtures added of five mancozeb levels were used to generate gradients of soybean rust severity, plant defoliation, and soybean grain yield. The data were subjected to correlation analysis
