Anthocyanin Composition of Melinis minutiflora Cultivated in Brazil
Revista Brasileira De Farmacognosia, 2021Melinis minutiflora P.Beauv., Poaceae, is a species of perennial grass native to Africa. Although considered an invasive species in many parts of the world, this species was successfully introduced for livestock feed in tropical countries, including in the Brazilian savanna (Cerrado).

Effects of Molasses Grass, Melinis minutiflora Volatiles on the Foraging Behavior of the Cereal Stemborer Parasitoid, Cotesia sesamiae [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2003 Olfactory responses of the cereal stemborer parasitoid Cotesia sesamiae to volatiles emitted by gramineous host and nonhost plants of the stemborers were studied in a Y-tube olfactometer. The host plants were maize (Zea mays) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), while the nonhost plant was molasses grass (Melinis minutiflora). In single-choice tests, females

Biological Invasions, 2018
Impacts of invasive species are context-dependent owing to genetic differences in the invasive species, in the abiotic environment or the recipient biotas. Here, we tested how these factors affected the invasive grass Melinis minutiflora and its impacts on native plants in Hawai’i (USA) and in the Brazilian Cerrado under four environmental conditions ...

Our objective in this trial was to investigate the anti-tick effects of molasses grass (Melinis minutiflora) and gamba grass (Andropogon gayanus) against Boophilus microplus, using buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) as a control. During a 3-year-period fieldwork was carried out in the tropical, subhumid climate at Progreso, Municipality of Jiutepec ...

Studies were conducted on the host searching behavior of the larval parasitoid Cotesia sesamiae (Cameron) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and the pupal parasitoid Dentichasmias busseolae Heinrich (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), both of which attack lepidopteran (Crambidae, Noctuidae) cereal stemborers. The behavior of D. busseolae was observed in a diversified

Melinis minutiflora (molasses grass).
2021Abstract M. minutiflora is a grass which is used widely as a fodder species for livestock and for its ability to grow well on poor soils, but which is also strongly invasive. It has been introduced intentionally around the world, and also probably accidentally as a seed contaminant.

Repellence of the tickRhipicephalus appendiculatus by the grassMelinis minutiflora
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1995In a study to develop anti-tick pastures, the climbing behaviour of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus on Melinis minutiflora (molasses grass) was investigated. Experiments were done with cut green stems of grass, grass dried in the shade, grass dried in sunshine, grass washed in solvent and grass growing in a study plot. In all cases a common pasture grass,

Melinis minutiflora Beauv. (Poaceae) is an African grass that is invading mid-elevation Trachypogon savannas in Venezuela. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of soil fertility, competition and soil disturbance in facilitating Melinis' invasion and growth in these savanna sites. We manipulated soil fertility by adding nitrogen (
