Competition Between Grasses and Khaya ivorensis A. Chev. During Initial Growth: Physiological and Nutritional Aspects

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Coexistence with weeds negatively affects growth, physiological, and nutritional variables of K. ivorensis in the initial phase of development. Coexistence with M. maximus is more harmful to the development of K. ivorensis seedlings compared to other grasses studied.

Physiological and Agronomic Responses of Tamani Grass Under Different Nitrogen Fertilization Strategies

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 4, August 2026.
Nitrogen is the most limiting nutrient for plant growth. Therefore, nitrogen fertilization of pastures must be prioritized to sustain high pasture yield. The objective of this study was to evaluate physiological and agronomic responses of Tamani grass managed under different nitrogen fertilization strategies.
