Digestibility of rumen undegradable protein from 40 browse species measured by mobile nylon bag and in vitro techniques por Kaitho, R.J., Umunna, N.N., Nsahlai, I.V., Tamminga, S., Bruchem, J. van

“…Crude protein concentration and energy value of cereal crop residues and poor quality grasses are below animal requirements during much of the year and browses have been incorporated in the feeding systems to improve the nutritional status of ruminants. Leaves and fruits of leguminous browses can be used as protein supplements for ruminants and are commonly used as foods in many agricultural systems. …”

Ecophysiological and Molecular Analysis of Contrasting Genotypes for Leaf Senescence in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) Under Differential Doses of N in Soil por Becheran, Daniela E., Corzo, Melanie Anahi, Ploschuk, Edmundo L., Nicosia, Salvador Maria, Moschen, Sebastian Nicolas, Bengoa Luoni, Sofía Ailin, Di Rienzo, Julio, Heinz, Nicolas, Alvarez, Daniel, Fernandez, Paula Del Carmen

“…Leaf senescence in plants is the last stage of leaf development and is characterized by a decline in photosynthetic activity, an active degeneration of cellular structures, and the recycling of accumulated nutrients to areas of active growth, such as buds, young leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds. This process holds economic significance as it can impact yield, influencing the plant’s ability to maintain an active photosynthetic system during prolonged periods, especially during the grain filling stage, which affects plant weight and oil content. …”
