Hybrid between P. schweinfurthii and Napier Grass
CYTOLOGIA, 2003 Four crosses were effected between the 3 available species of Pennisetum with x=7 as the basic chromosome number [P. glaucum (Cumbu/Pearl millet), P. purpureum (Napier grass) and P. schweinfurthii] viz., (1) P. glaucum×P. schweinfurthii, (2) P. schweinfurthii×P. glaucum, (3) P. schweinfurthii×P. purpureum, (4) P. purpureum×P. schweinfurthii.

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 3, June 2026.This study evaluated heat tolerance and biochemical and haematological responses of Holstein cows exposed to different environmental conditions (full sun or shade) and feeding regimens (with or without concentrate) in the semi‐arid region of Brazil. Sixteen adult cows were distributed across four treatments.

Metal absorption by pigweed and napier grass in biochar-treated soils
Sains Tanah: Journal of Soil Science and AgroclimatologyHeavy metal absorption by plants is suggested to be affected by soil treatment with different types of biochar. Due to various types of available biochar materials in the environment, effects of three representative biochar types were evaluated in a ...

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT In a stallion breeding‐soundness examination, testicular volume may be estimated either from total scrotal width or by measuring the height, width and length of both testes. This study aimed to determine whether testicular morphometric parameters obtained by ultrasonography fluctuate throughout the year, and whether these variations affect ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.With increasing wildfire frequency in Mediterranean North Africa, this study examines how breeding Great Tits (Parus major) adjust nest construction and reproductive investment in burned and unburned forests of northeastern Algeria. While fire‐induced scarcity of moss led birds to use alternative fibers and resulted in smaller eggs, fledgling success ...

KARYOTYPE ALTERATIONS AFTER HYBRIDIZATION BETWEEN Pennisetum purpureum AND Pennisetum glaucum
Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2015 Napier grass and pearl millet are tropical forages from the genus Pennisetum. The variability in those species is explored in breeding programs of forages, as well as in the production of interspecific hybrids. Hybridization is a phenomenon that leads to

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa
Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1656-1676, April 2026.Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Alkaline treatment and thermal properties of Napier grass fibres
International Journal of Automotive and Mechanical Engineering, 2022 This paper presents an overview of a natural fibre, namely Pennisetum purpureum, which is commonly known as Napier grass. This paper’s intention is to analyse Napier grass fibre to assess the effect of alkaline treatment on the tensile properties, thermal stability, and morphology of the fibres.
