FITORREMEDIACIÓN DE UN SUELO CONTAMINADO CON PETRÓLEO EXTRA PESADO CON Megathyrsus maximus

Revista Internacional de Contaminación Ambiental, 2017
Soil contamination by petroleum is an environmental problem and phytoremediation has proved to be a promising method for treating such soils. However, selection of species for use in phytoremediation is a key factor for its successful application. The aim of this study was to investigate the phytoremediation potential of the grass Megathyrsus maximus

The role of competition in moderating plant–soil feedback for restoring ecosystems invaded by Brazilian peppertree (Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi)

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Abstract Introduction Ecosystem restoration requires the management of invasive plants due to the harmful effects they have on both above‐ and belowground ecosystem processes. Belowground soil modifications by invasive plants, particularly those driven by plant–soil feedbacks (PSFs), are thought to significantly influence an invader's success by ...

Canopy height impact on legume mass and Megathyrsus maximus tiller dynamics in mixed pastures

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B — Soil & Plant Science, 2023
The use of grazing management strategies can influence canopy structure and the permanence of legumes. The objective of this work was to evaluate the determination of forage canopy heights as a grazing management strategy regarding herbage mass composition and tiller population dynamics in multispecies pastures comprising Megathyrsus maximus cv. Aruana

Widespread negative effects of Leucaena leucocephala (white‐popinac) invasion on regenerating areas of the Atlantic Forest

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Fragment of Atlantic Forest (left) naturally regenerating in an abandoned pasture (centre) and being invaded by a large patch of white‐popinac (Leucaena leucocephala; right). This image summarizes the scenario of invasion by white‐popinac that is directly threatening forest regeneration and its native diversity.

Adubação nitrogenada e fosfatada em cultivares de Megathyrsus maximus nos cerrados de Roraima

CONTRIBUCIONES A LAS CIENCIAS SOCIALES, 2023
Os efeitos da fertilização nitrogenada (0, 50, 100 e 150 kg de N ha-1) e fosfatada (0, 40, 80 e 120 kg de P2O5 ha-1) sobre a produtividade e composição química da forragem de três cultivares de Megathyrsus maximus (BRS Quênia, BRS Tamani e BRS Zuri) foram avaliados em condições naturais de campo nos cerrados de Roraima.

Traits Associated With Local Extinctions of Native Plants in a Species‐Rich Urban Reserve

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 28, Issue 3, July/September 2025.
A comprehensive resurvey of an urban reserve in Sydney failed to redetect 29% of native vascular plant species recorded from 1976 to 1992. Compared with persistent species, locally extinct species were shorter on average and more likely to have a graminoid habit and be water‐associated.
