Some morphogenic and structural characteristics of four forage grasses grown under four soil moisture conditions were assessed. The forage species were: Setaria anceps Stapf., Hemarthria altissima [Poir] Stapf. & Hubbard, Acroceras macrum Stapf. and Brachiaria purpurascens [Raddi] Henr. Soil moisture level was controlled by weighing individual pots and by relative saturation of total porosity (RSTP). A randomized block design with three replications was used. Four plants of each specie were submitted to four soil moisture levels: deficit (50% RSTP)(D), control […]

The experiment was carried out from January to July 1996 to evaluate the growth of three forage species (Brachiaria decumbens, Brachiaria mutica and Setaria anceps) cultivated in vases, under two handling situations (with and without being cut before the treatments) and in six different conditions (10, 20 and 30 days, with and without flooding). In order to perform the growth evaluations, the production of leaves, stem and dead material dry matter were analyzed in two cuts referring to the first […]
