Elongation growth in leaf blades of Chloris gayana under saline conditions
(Elsevier, 2003)In Chloris gayana, salinity-associated yield decreases are due mainly to leaf area reductions. To understand the physiological basis for such reduction, the effects of salinity were studied on the spatial and temporal ... -
Light interception, yield, spring regrowth and quality of Chloris gayana under different defoliation regimes
(Taylor and Francis, 2022-02-22)To study the effect of different defoliation regimes on light interception, forage yield, spring regrowth and quality of one of the most expanded species in this region, Chloris gayana, we evaluate combinations of two ... -
Physiological causes for decreased productivity under high salinity in Boma, a tetraploid Chloris gayana cultivar
(CSIRO Publishing, 2001)Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana Kunth) is widely cultivated in the semi-arid tropics and favoured for salt tolerance; nevertheless, productivity decreases significantly under saline conditions, especially in tetraploid ... -
Salinity induced anatomical and morphological changes in Chloris gayana Kunth roots
(Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2011)Chloris gayana Kunth is a grass species valuable as forage which was introduced into Argentina to be used as pasture in saline soils of subtropical and warm-temperate zones, given its good adaptability to drought, salinity ... -
Why are Chloris gayana leaves shorter in salt-affected plants? Analyses in the elongation zone
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2006-11)Reduced hydraulic conductance calculated from growth data was suggested to be the main reason for reduced leaf expansion in salt-stressed Chloris gayana (Rhodes grass). In this work, xylem vessel cross-sections and wall ...
