Selection by Lambs Grazing Plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.), Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.), White Clover (Trifolium repens L.), Red Clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) across Seasons [PDF]
Animals, 2020 Plantain (Plantago lanceolata) and chicory (Cichorium intybus) are now widely used in combination with clover species to provide greater annual lamb live weight gains than perennial ryegrass and white clover pasture.

Genome-wide analysis of the WRKY genes and their important roles during cold stress in white clover [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background White clover (Trifolium repens L) is a high-quality forage grass with a high protein content, but it is vulnerable to cold stress, which can negatively affect its growth and development.

Does white clover (Trifolium repens) abundance in temperate pastures determine Sitona obsoletus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) larval populations? [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 To determine if host plant abundance determined the size of clover root weevil (CRW) Sitona obsoletus larval populations, a study was conducted over four years in plots sown in ryegrass (Lolium perenne) (cv.

The White Clover Single-Copy Nuclear Gene TrNAC002 Promotes Growth and Confers Drought Resistance in Plants Through Flavonoid Synthesis [PDF]
PlantsWhite clover (Trifolium repens) is vulnerable to drought stress. In response to abiotic stress, plants are regulated by NAC transcription factors. The NAC in white clover has not been thoroughly documented until recently.

Condensed Tannins in White Clover (Trifolium repens) Foliar Tissues Expressing the Transcription Factor TaMYB14-1 Bind to Forage Protein and Reduce Ammonia and Methane Emissions in vitro [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Grazing ruminants contribute to global climate change through enteric methane and nitrous oxide emissions. However, animal consumption of the plant polyphenolics, proanthocyanidins, or condensed tannins (CTs) can decrease both methane emissions and urine

Irish Journal of Agricultural and Food Research, 2021 White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is at a disadvantage to perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.; PRG) due to its limited cold tolerance and low growth rates at colder temperatures, which can affect subsequent spring herbage dry matter (DM) availability.
