Forage Potential of Dwarf Napiergrass and a Pearl Millet ✕ Napiergrass Hybrid
Agronomy Journal, 1996AbstractNapiergrass [Pennisetum purpureum (L.) Schum.] and pearl millet [Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke; syn. Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] ✕ napiergrass (PMN) hybrids have potential to fill a forage production void during fall months in the southeastern USA.

Crushing rolls to accelerate napiergrass drying
Biomass, 1988Abstract Napiergrass stalks with an initial moisture content of 73% were crushed by one of five mechanical treatments in the laboratory to simulate possible field methods for crushing. Treatments were evaluated for effectiveness by comparing drying constants determined from oven drying tests.

Herbicide Effect on Napiergrass (Pennisetum purpureum) Control
Weed Science, 2011Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the effect of herbicides on napiergrass growth and control. In greenhouse experiments, hexazinone, glyphosate, and imazapic were applied POST, and carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation was measured with the use of an open-flow gas-exchange system up to 22 d after treatment (DAT).

Hybrid Seed Production of Pearl Millet × Napiergrass Triploid Hybrids
Crop Science, 1997Pearl millet (PM), Pennisetum glaucum (L) R. Br., × napiergrass (NG), P. purpureum Schum., interspecific hybrids (PMN) have the potential to extend production of high quality forage into the late summer and fall in the USA. The objective of this study was to determine if interspecific hybrid seed could be produced on a commercial scale at Kunia, HI ...

Evaluation of Control of Napiergrass (Pennisetum purpureum) with Tillage and Herbicides
Invasive Plant Science and Management, 2015AbstractNapiergrass has potential as a cellulosic biofuel crop because of its rapid growth habit in the southern United States. However, it is also listed as a potential invasive species by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council. For field renovation, information about napiergrass control in response to tillage and herbicides is required.

Napiergrass Has Dual Use as Biofuel Feedstock and Animal Fodder
Agronomy Journal, 2019Core Ideas Napiergrass can produce higher biomass yield in marginal lands in the southern United States.Napiergrass can be grown as a dual source for feedstocks (bioenergy) and animal fodder.Napiergrass produces regrowth during late fall after its matured biomass harvest.Napiergrass regrowth meets the requirement for good‐quality animal fodder ...

Genetic Diversity of Biofuel and Naturalized Napiergrass (Pennisetum purpureum)
Invasive Plant Science and Management, 2014AbstractBiofuel crops such as napiergrass possess traits characteristic of invasive plant species, raising concern that biofuels might escape cultivation and invade surrounding agricultural and natural areas. Napiergrass biofuel types are being developed to have reduced invasion risk, but these might be cultivated in areas where naturalized populations
