Nitrogen acquisition and retention pathways in sustainable perennial bioenergy grass cropping systems

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2024.
Perennial tall grasses sustain high biomass yield with minimal synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizer, potentially by leveraging biological N fixation and nitrification inhibition. Enhancing these traits through research and breeding can further reduce their reliance on N fertilizer and thereby support more resilient and environmentally sustainable ...

Impact of the invasive alien grass Melinis minutiflora at the savanna‐forest ecotone in the Brazilian Cerrado

Diversity and Distributions, 2004
ABSTRACTExotic grasses are a serious threat to biodiversity in the cerrado savannas of central Brazil. Of particular concern is the possible role they may have in impeding tree regeneration at gallery (riverine) forest edges and increasing fire intensity, thereby driving gallery forest retreat.

Local perceptions of the benefits versus negative impacts of weedy grasses in central Madagascar, with a focus on the genus Digitaria

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 710-728, May 2024.
Plants and agricultural practices are an integral part of human food systems and well‐being. Here, an example of an ethnobotanical research approach is provided to increase our understanding of the relationship between plants and human activities in Madagascar, where the agricultural sector is the local economy basis.

Fertilization during mineland rehabilitation may shift competitive outcomes toward invasive species

Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 4, May 2024.
Managing invasive species is essential for achieving mineland rehabilitation goals and ensuring the long‐term provision of critical ecosystem services while preventing new dispersion sources to neighboring areas. Traditional techniques include chemical and manual weeding, but frequent reinvasion limits their long‐term success.

Shifts in grasses diversity patterns between two contrasting 40‐year climate periods in tropical dry islands

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2024.
Abstract Grasses are one of the most successful and dispersed plant families worldwide and their environmental and economic values are widely acknowledged. They dominate the landscape of Cabo Verde, the southernmost and driest archipelago of Macaronesia, and are relevant natural resources for local populations, but a comprehensive evaluation of their ...
