Biomass turnover in brachiaria cultivars in a tropical environment

open access: yesBioscience Journal, 2017
The experiment was conducted to evaluate the morphogenetic traits of three Brachiaria cultivars (common, Llanero and Tupi) subjected to continuous grazing with variable stocking rate in the four seasons of the year.

Growth Rates and Carbohydrate Fluxes within the Elongation Zone of Tall Fescue Leaf Blades [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1987
Investigations were performed to better understand the carbon economy in the elongation zone of tall fescue leaf blades. Plants were grown at constant 21 degrees C and continuous 300 micromoles per square meter per second photosynthetic photon flux density where leaf elongation was steady for several days.

Variability and Synchronism of Leaf Appearance and Leaf Elongation Rates of Eleven Contrasting Rice Genotypes

open access: yesAgricultural Sciences, 2015
Leaf appearance and leaf elongation rates in rice play an essential role in determining the development of the plants’ architecture which affects their adaptability to varying environments. This study aimed to characterize the rates of leaf appearance and elongation on all leaves of the main culms of rice plants for 11 contrasting varieties and to ...

Mechanical impedance of root growth directly reduces leaf elongation rates of cereals [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 1997
SUMMARYA dry soil is generally a hard soil. Thus, the effects of water stress and mechanical impedance on plant growth are difficult to separate. To achieve this we have developed a growth cell that allows manipulation of the strength of growth media (i.e. mechanical impedance) without altering the availability of water or nutrients.

A hydraulic model is compatible with rapid changes in leaf elongation rate under fluctuating evaporative demand and soil water status. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Plants are constantly facing rapid changes in evaporative demand and soil water content, which affect their water status and growth. In apparent contradiction with a hydraulic hypothesis, leaf elongation rate (LER) declined in the morning and recovered ...

Morphogenesis in pastures with Tanzania grass fertilized with nitrogen doses under a grazing system

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2015
The morphogenetic and structural characteristics, coupled to forage production of Tanzania grass with nitrogen (N) doses during the seasons of the year, at intermittent grazing, were analyzed.

Recommended fertilization and timing of nitrogen fertilization influences the morphogenesis, structural characteristics, and production efficiency of Mombaça grass

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2023
This study aimed to evaluate whether different fertilization strategies influence the morphogenic, structural, and production characteristics of Megathyrsus maximus cv. Mombaça.

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Leaf Meristems of Tall Fescue [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1984
The physiological bases for genetic differences in leaf growth rates were examined in two genotypes of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) selected for a 50% difference in leaf elongation rate. Genotypes had similar dark respiration rates and concentrations of carbohydrate fractions in the leaf meristem and in each daily growth segment above the ...

Modeling of Shoot Elongation and Leaf Appearance in Potted Mulberry

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2000
To predict mulberry growth, modeling of shoot elongation and leaf appearance of potted mulberries was attempted. Potted mulberries were grown in temperature-controlled phytotrons. Changes in the rates of mulberry shoot elongation and leaf appearance, and
