Interspecific hybridization improves the performance of Lotus spp. under saline stress
(Elsevier, 2019-06)Salinity is one of the most frequent limiting conditions in pasture production for grazing livestock. Legumes, such as Lotus spp. with high forage quality and capable of adapting to different environments, improves pasture ... -
Physiological and anatomical traits associated with tolerance to long‐term partial submergence stress in the Lotus genus: responses of forage species, a model and an interspecific hybrid
(2018-09)Cattle production based on natural pastures is often subject to flooding periods, which affect plant performance and as a result, forage production. Although most forage legumes are not tolerant to flooding, Lotus spp. are ... -
Salt tolerance in Argentine weathgrass [Elymus scabrifolius (Döll) J.H. Hunz.] is related to shoot sodium exclusion
(Wiley, 2020-06)This is the first report about Na and K fluxes and heritability of Na exclusion in the Elymus genus. Argentine wheatgrass (Elymus scabrifolius ) is an important forage genetic resource for saline environments. A previous ... -
Wild halophytic species as forage sources: key aspects for plant breeding
(Wiley; British Grassland Society; European Grassland Federation, 2019-02-20)The use of wild halophytic species as forage resources in saline environments has gained increasing attention. Argentina ranks third in area of saline soils in the world, with a third of its territory showing various degrees ...
