Productivity and quality, competition and facilitation of chicory in ryegrass/legume-based pastures under various nitrogen supply levels [PDF]
Traditional perennial ryegrass-white clover mixtures have limitations in combined productivity and quality that herbs like chicory may alleviate. This study examined the consequences on productivity and quality of as well as competition and facilitation ...

ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

ABSTRACT The plant essential oils (EOs) play a fundamental role in the adaptation to different habitats and environmental conditions. To verify the influence of these factors on the EO of Artemisia absinthium L., we conducted a pharmacognostic study on this species, collected during both the vegetative (V) and flowering (F) stages, in two different ...
