Molecular dating of phylogenetic divergence between Urochloa species based on complete chloroplast genomes

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Forage species of Urochloa are planted in millions of hectares of tropical and subtropical pastures in South America. Most of the planted area is covered with four species (U. ruziziensis, U. brizantha, U. decumbens and U.

Priming of Urochloa brizantha cv. Xaras seeds [PDF]

African Journal of Agricultural Research, 2018
Priming is one of the several physiological methods used to increase the performance of seeds. To evaluate the effects of priming, seeds of Urochloa brizantha cv. Xaraes were primed under different osmotic potentials (ys = 0.0; -0.5; -1.0 and -1.5 MPa) and temperatures (15 and 25°C) for 24, 48, 96 and 144 h.

Desempenho produtivo de cultivares de Brachiaria brizantha (syn. Urochloa brizantha) submetidas à adubação orgânica

Research, Society and Development, 2021
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos de diferentes doses de cama de frango no índice Soil Plant Analysis Development (SPAD) e na produtividade da matéria seca (MS) de forragem das cultivares (cvs.) de Brachiaria brizantha Marandu, BRS Paiaguás e Xaraés. O experimento foi conduzido em vasos plásticos preenchido com 25 L, a céu aberto.

Lasting effect of Urochloa brizantha on a common bean-wheat-maize rotation in a medium-term no-till system

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
Grass intercropping under no-till is an option to increase crop residues on the soil surface and crop diversity. Urochloa spp. is frequently selected for intercropping to improve land use and agricultural production because of its high residue production,

Root Microbiota: Orchestrating Architecture-Smart Crops. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
Root‐associated microbiota play an important role in shaping crop architecture. The concept of “holobiont architecture” is proposed, in which plant architecture is dynamically fine‐tuned through synergistic plant–microbiome interactions. This framework offers novel avenues for breeding architecture‐smart crops with improved phenotypic plasticity and ...

Fitorremediação de solos contaminados com picloram por Urochloa brizantha [PDF]

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2014
O picloram é um herbicida que apresenta elevada persistência no solo, podendo causar danos severos a plantas cultivadas em sucessão e ao meio ambiente. A fitorremediação de áreas contaminadas vem sendo estudada como forma de redução da persistência e impacto ambiental desse herbicida.

How does the condition of the pasture in late winter influence the plant and animal responses in the subsequent seasons?

Bioscience Journal, 2022
This study aimed to test the hypotheses: (i) the deferred pasture with lower height in late winter has greater herbage accumulation rate (HAR) and better structure, which facilitates the animal selective grazing during the subsequent spring and summer ...
