Death of pastures syndrome: tissue changes in Urochloa hybrida cv. Mulato II and Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2017
Abstract The quality of forage production is a prerequisite to raising livestock. Therefore, income losses in this activity, primarily cattle raising, can result in the impossibility of economic activity. Through the qualitative and quantitative anatomical study of Urochloa hybrida cv. Mulato II and U. brizantha cv.

Response of cereals to intercropping with non‐food crops in tropical and subtropical regions: A meta‐analysis

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Stylosanthes cv. Campo Grande response to Bradyrhizobium inoculation in an Amazon Cerrado Oxisol

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Species of the genus Stylosanthes show great potential for use in mixed pastures and as green manure due to their symbiotic potential in symbiosis with diazotrophic bacteria, particularly Bradyrhizobium. These herbaceous legumes can improve pasture quality and contribute to sustainability.

Soybean yield performance in oxisols with varying morphological and physicochemical characteristics

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merril) yield in tropical high‐altitude regions is strongly influenced by soil physical and chemical attributes, particularly in highly weathered oxisols, where variability among suborders may affect crop performance.

Effects of Recurrent Fires on the Interactions Between Frugivorous Birds and Plants

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic fires are increasingly affecting native vegetation worldwide, with consequences not only for species occurrence but also for ecological interactions. We investigated the effects of two fire events, spaced by a 2‐year interval, on interactions between frugivorous birds and fleshy‐fruited plants.

Effects of soil physical properties on dung beetle assemblages in pasture landscapes of the Brazilian Cerrado

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 169-181, May 2026.
We assessed the effect of the type of soil texture (loamy sand and sandy loam) and its physical properties on dung beetle species assemblages in a pastureland region of the Brazilian Cerrado. We found a reduction in the total and paracoprid beetle abundances in loamy sand soil. Furthermore, the increase of soil compaction negatively affected the entire

DESENVOLVIMENTO INICIAL DO ALGODOEIRO QUANDO SUBMETIDO À COMPETIÇÃO COM GRAMÍNEAS

Colloquium Agrariae, 2018
Um dos fatores que comprometem o rendimento do algodoeiro cultivado, mesmo em cultivo em diferentes épocas de semeadura é a interferência exercida pelas plantas daninhas.
