Advances in microbial pretreatment for biorefining of perennial grasses
AbstractPerennial grasses are potentially abundant sources of biomass for biorefineries, which can produce high yields with low input requirements,...

The Effect of Biostimulants on the Productivity of Perennial Grasses Grown on the Main Types of Soils
AbstractThe purpose of the research was to study the effect of a liquid-phase biological preparation (LPBP) and cobalt nanoparticles during presowing...

Belowground growth strategies of native and invasive rhizomatous perennial grasses in response to precipitation variability, clip**, and competition
Invasive clonal species may exhibit different growth strategies than their native clonal competitors. In this study, we examined the spatial...

Biomass Quality Responses to Selection for Increased Biomass Yield in Perennial Energy Grasses
Perennial grasses are candidates for biomass crop** systems that are focused on providing a wide range of ecosystem services in addition to...

Biomass Production and Nutrient Removal by Perennial Energy Grasses Produced on a Wet Marginal Land
Growing dedicated bioenergy crops on marginal land can provide beneficial outcomes including biomass production and energy, resource management, and...

Morphogenetic and structural responses to tree-shading in three temperate perennial grasses: implications for growth, persistence and defoliation practices
In humid-temperate silvopastoral systems (SPS), light limitations can affect the growth and persistence of temperate forage species in the...

Influence of the Duration of the Use of Perennial Grasses on the Fertility of Irrigated Meadow-Chernozemic Soils in the Omsk Irtysh Region
AbstractStudies were carried out to establish the influence of legume–grass mixtures on the fertility indicators of irrigated meadow-chernozemic soil...

Perennial grass seed bank in litter patches. Co-occurrence with forb and annual grass seed banks constraints the reestablishment in disturbed Patagonian Monte rangelands
We assessed the effect of grazing and plant patchiness on the perennial grass seed bank in litter patches in relation to co-occurring shrub, annual...

Perennial Plants and Soil Management
The expansion of croplands has reduced the amount of land grown under perennial plants globally. For example, in the US Midwest, cultivation of food...

Genomic Prediction of Complex Traits in Forage Plants Species: Perennial Grasses Case
The majority of forage grass species are obligate outbreeders. Their breeding classically consists of an initial selection on spaced plants for...
-
Invasive annual grasses show decrease in seed size but no change in growth or carbon economy following invasion
The invasion of annual grasses into historically perennial-dominated systems is a global biodiversity threat. While significant, it is not known how...

Chromosome-scale assembly and annotation of the perennial ryegrass genome
BackgroundThe availability of chromosome-scale genome assemblies is fundamentally important to advance genetics and breeding in crops, as well as for...

Grasses procure key soil nutrients for clovers
Rhizobial nitrogen fixation in legumes provides spillover benefits to neighbouring plants such as pasture grasses. Generally, it is understood to be...

Doubled haploidy methodology for three forage grasses [crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn.), hybrid bromegrass (Bromus riparius x B. inermis), and meadow bromegrass (Bromus riparius Rehm.)]
Doubled haploidy (DH) methodology is used in many plant species to accelerate crop improvement and cultivar development; however not all species are...

Choose Local: Dung Addition from Native Herbivores Can Produce Substantial Positive Effects on the Growth of Native Grasses Compared to Livestock Dung
Livestock grazing and dung deposition can increase soil nutrients, contributing to the dominance of exotic species. Recent research suggests that...

Silvopastoral transitions in Latin America: toward diverse perennial systems
Agroecosystems with greater diversity and perenniality have been proposed to promote resilience to climate change, stability of production, multiple...

Grasses and shrubs have decoupled legacy effects related to plant nutrition: the interplay of symbiotic fungi and nutrients in soil
Background and aimsVegetation patchiness is a distinctive feature of arid ecosystems that strongly shapes plant-soil interactions. While fertility...

Genetic and Genomic Resources of Range Grasses: Status and Future Prospects
This paper describes the current scenario of the genetic and genomic resources of the range grasses. The majority of world’s rangeland, which make up...

Flavonoids in major cereal grasses: distribution, functions, biosynthesis, and applications
Cereal food crops like maize ( Zea mays ), rice ( Oryza sativa ), sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor ) and wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) are members of the grass family...

Effects of native and invasive grasses on the survival and growth of tree seedlings in a neotropical savanna
Invasive grasses have spread over large areas of ancient savannas worldwide and have extensively impacted native landscapes in the neotropics....
