Identification of IPT9 in Brachiaria brizantha (syn. Urochloa brizantha) and expression analyses during ovule development in sexual and apomictic plants. [PDF]
Background In Brachiaria sexual reproduction, during ovule development, a nucellar cell differentiates into a megaspore mother cell (MMC) that, through meiosis and mitosis, gives rise to a reduced embryo sac.

Sewage sludge-based organomineral fertilizer improves phosphorus efficiency in Urochloa brizantha
Sewage sludge (SS) from wastewater treatment has reasonable phosphorus (P) levels, which could be used as fertilizer in agriculture. However, SS-P content is lower than mineral fertilizers, which limits its operational application.
