Ensilability of the tropical grass 'Splenda' [PDF]
CrossRef Listing Of Deleted DOIs, 1995 Irrigated C4 photosynthesis grasses are more productive than C3 grasses in portuguese hot season, due to better use of nitrogen, water, high temperatures and solar radiation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ensiling characteristics and limiting factors of ’Splenda’ (Setaria sphacelata var. sericea x S. sphacelata var. splendida).
