Incorporating forage legumes into grass swards has the potential to enhance the sustainability of pasture systems and reduce reliance on nitrogen fertilizers. The aim of this study was to assess the on‐farm performance of bahiagrass (BG; Paspalum notatum

Rhizoma peanut root‐rhizome mass, growth, and decomposition under grazing or clipping management
Belowground plant structures are integral to nutrient cycling in grassland ecosystems. However, relative to herbage responses, few studies have examined the belowground dynamics of warm‐season perennial forages under different management practices.

Soil fungal community structure and function response to rhizoma perennial peanut cultivars
Background Crop-associated microorganisms play a crucial role in soil nutrient cycling, and crop growth, and health. Fine-scale patterns in soil microbial community diversity and composition are commonly regulated by plant species or genotype.

The introduction of rhizoma peanut (RP Arachis glabrata Benth) into bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) may require time to develop stable plant–soil microbe interactions as the microbial legacy of the previous plant community may be long-lasting.

Tolerance of plant virus disease: Its genetic, physiological, and epidemiological significance
Plant viruses lead to biotic stress in plants, affecting growth, reproductive fitness and yield. Tolerance of viruses and virus disease may provide a host defence mechanism against deleterious effects, but further physiological and epidemiological studies are required to determine the circumstances in which it can be effectively used for crop ...

Grazing intensity effects on sward responses of UF Riata Bahiagrass
Abstract Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) is a rhizomatous, perennial, warm‐season forage widely grown in the southeastern United States "UF Riata" bahiagrass is more upright growing with greater herbage production when days are shorter compared with most other cultivars.

Abstract Overseeding alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) into grass swards increases forage nutritive value and reduces N fertilizer requirement. In warm climates, establishing and maintaining alfalfa in mixtures with vigorous C4 grasses is challenging, which makes adjustment of defoliation management critical.

Abstract Integrated crop‐livestock systems provide an array of benefits to agricultural systems, including a reduction in nitrogen (N) leaching. A farm approach to integrate crops and livestock is the adoption of grazed cover crops. Moreover, the addition of perennial grasses into crop rotations may improve soil organic matter and decrease N leaching ...
