Microsatellite markers for Urochloa humidicola (Poaceae) and their transferability to other Urochloa species. [PDF]

BMC Res Notes, 2015
Urochloa humidicola is a warm-season grass commonly used as forage in the tropics and is recognized for its tolerance to seasonal flooding. This grass is an important forage species for the Cerrado and Amazon regions of Brazil. U. humidicola is a polyploid species with variable ploidy (6X-9X) and facultative apomixis with high phenotypic plasticity ...

Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Wet Chemistry Dataset for Forage Nutritional Quality Assessment in <i>Urochloa humidicola</i>. [PDF]

Data Brief
Assessing the nutritional quality traits of pastures is crucial for germplasm and breeding evaluations, enabling the selection of high-quality forages to enhance livestock productivity. However, traditional laboratory analytical methods are logistically demanding and costly, particularly in large-scale trials, underscoring the need for rapid, precise ...

Combining ability among apomictic and sexual parents of Urochloa humidicola [PDF]

Grass and Forage Science, 2019
AbstractThe diallel cross constitutes an informative genetic design for choosing genitors and crosses in breeding programmes since it provides estimates of general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining abilities. Because the breeding programme for Urochloa humidicola ([Rendle] Morrone & Zuloaga; syn. Brachiaria humidicola [Rendle] Schweick) at Embrapa

Role of priority effects in invasive plant species management: Early arrival of native seeds guarantees the containment of invasion by Giant ragweed

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Depending on the sowing times of native and invasive plant species, three priority treatments were conducted: all species sown at the same time (T1); native species sown 3 weeks before Ambrosia trifida (T2); and native species sown 6 weeks before A. trifida (T3). Priority treatments significantly affected the average response of A.

Growth of the invasive Navua sedge (Cyperus aromaticus) under competitive interaction with pasture species and simulated grazing conditions: Implication for management

Ecological Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 331-346, March 2023., 2023
Navua sedge (Cyperus aromaticus) is a major weed in pastures and cropping areas in the wet tropical regions of Australia and South Pacific countries. Understanding the interspecific competitive ability of Navua sedge with co‐occurring desirable grasses is critical for its management in pasture situations.

Abandoned pastures and restored savannas have distinct patterns of plant–soil feedback and nutrient cycling compared with native Brazilian savannas

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 7, Page 1863-1873, July 2022., 2022
Despite reducing the resprouting and germination of exotic grasses and improving the establishment of native grasses in the short term, restoration practices have major impacts on the soil microbial community and soil fertility. The reduction of soil microbial biomass and organic matter content reduces the immobilization of soil nutrients and is ...
