Potential of Urochloa grass hybrids as fodder in the Ethiopian highlands by Worku, Mesfin, Lemma, Habtamu, Shawle, Kassa, Adie, Aberra, Duncan, Alan J., Jones, Christopher S., Mekonnen, Kindu, Notenbaert, An Maria Omer, Bezabih, Melkamu

“…The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of two Urochloa hybrids, Mulato‐I and Mulato‐II, in the Ethiopian highlands when managed under different plant spacing and harvesting stages. Treatments included three plant spacings for root splits (0.5 by 0.25 m, 0.5 by 0.5 m, and 0.75 by 0.75 m between rows and plants, respectively) and three harvesting stages: (a) 60 d of growth; (b) 90 d of growth corresponding to 50% bloom, and (c) 120 d of growth (corresponding to full bloom). …”

Ecophysiological Responses of Tall Wheatgrass Germplasm to Drought and Salinity by Borrajo, Celina Ines, Sánchez‐Moreiras, Adela M., Reigosa, Manuel J.

“…In conclusion, the combined use of the δ13C value, Na+/K+ ratio, and canopy structural variables can help identify accessions that are well-adapted to drought and salinity, also considering the desirable plant characteristics. Tall wheatgrass stress tolerance could be used to expand forage production under a changing climate.…”
