The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

It was assessed the evolution of tillering, forage biomass, leaf area index (LAI), interception of photosynthetically active radiation (IPAR), efficiency of radiation use (ERU) in Panicum maximum “cv” Mombaça during the regrowth period of the grass, in the Summer and Autumn seasons. Similarly, grass growth indices were assessed: net assimilation rate (NAR), leaf area ratio (LAR) and relative growth rate (RGR). All these variables were estimated from field observations taken on the 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th, 35th, 42nd and 49th […]
Keywords: interception of photosynthetically active radiation; leaf area index; leaf area ratio; rate of net assimilation; rate of relative growth; tillering
