The oxidative stress caused by atrazine in root exudation of Pennisetum americanum (L.) K. Schum
Pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum (L.) K. Schum) has been proven as a potential remediation plant of the pollution caused by atrazine. Plants used in remediation can release root exudates to communicate with rhizosphere microorganisms and accelerate ...

Lipid composition of millet (Pennisetum americanum) seeds [PDF]
AbstractThe composition of lipids extracted from a sample of millet seeds by each of 8 solvent systems is reported. Lipid components were separated by silicic acid column and thin layer chromatography (TLC) and quantitated by analysis of fatty acid methyl esters by gas liquid chromatography (GLC), with heptadecanoic acid as internal standard.

Carbon and nitrogen release from cover crop roots is poorly predicted by their chemical composition
Abstract Root‐derived carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) release in relation to chemical composition has rarely been quantified in field studies. The objectives of this study were to evaluate C and N release from six summer cover crop roots and to correlate it with their chemical composition. Root decomposition and N release from velvet bean (Mucuna aterrima),

Land‐Use Change Enhances Organic Phosphorus Pools in Oxisols in Brazil's New Agricultural Frontier
ABSTRACT Land‐use types and management systems can affect the availability of phosphorus (P) by modifying its compartments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the organic and inorganic fractions of P in an Oxisol in the Cerrado region of Brazil, considering various land‐use types and management systems and the period of application.

Metabolizable Energy Content of Pearl Millet [Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke]
Three experiments were conducted to determine the nitrogen-corrected metabolizable energy (MEn) content of ground pearl millet [Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke]. On a dry matter basis, 40% ground pearl millet was substituted for an equivalent amount of glucose monohydrate (reference substance) to determine MEn using male broiler chicks.
