Herbage Yield Evaluation of Pennisetum purpureum Grass Genotypes
International Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences, 2023This trial was conducted to assess the agronomic traits and forage dry matter yield of six Pennisetum purpureum grass genotypes in the great rift valley of Ethiopia. The experiment was carried out for four consecutive years in a randomized complete block design with three replications.

C-4 Pathway in Pennisetum purpureum
Nature New Biology, 1972HIGH rates of photosynthesis and low rates of photorespiration are found in several plant species in which the photosynthetic carbon reduction (PCR) cycle is augmented by a second carboxylation system, the C-4 pathway1,2. This pathway does not result in a net fixation or reduction of carbon, but seems to operate as a mechanism for concentrating CO2 at ...

The C-4 pathway in Pennisetum purpureum
Planta, 1973The anatomical structure of leaf tissue of P. purpureum, and the short term labelling pattern following exposure to (14)CO2 in the lighht, have been investigated. Both the arrangement of photosynthetic tissue in two layers around the vascular tissue, and the early labelling of malate and aspartate, characteristic of C-4 plants were observed.

GENETIC VARIABILITY IN NAPIER GRASS, Pennisetum purpureum
Madras Agricultural Journal, 1994Studies were made to estimate the available genetic variability for 12 characters of forage value on a germplasm collection of 53 genotypes of napier grass. High level of variability was observed for all the characters excepting leaf length. Higher estimates of GCV and heritability showed that the characters were highly heritable with scope of ...

Elephant Grass, Napier Grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum.)
1988Pennisetum purpureum is an important forage grass belonging to section Penicillaria of Gramineae, and is closely related to pearl millet (P. americanum). It is a rhizomatous perennial commonly called napier grass or elephant grass, perhaps due to its large size.

Agronomic assessment of Pennisetum purpureum cultivars for agroindustrial application
Field Crops Research, 1979Abstract Thirteen cultivars of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) were grown in the wet tropics over a period of 30 months for evaluation as a source of paper pulp. The first five ratoon harvests were at 3-month intervals, and the following two ratoon harvests at 6-month intervals. Mean annual yields were similar under both harvest regimes.
