Repeatability estimates and minimum number of evaluations for selection of elephant-grass genotypes for forage production. Authorship: RODRIGUES, E. V.; DAHER, R. F.; GRAVINA, G. de A.; VIANA, A. P.; ARAUJO, M. do S. B. de; OLIVEIRA, M. L. F.; VIVAS, M.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; PEREIRA, A. V. In forage-plants breeding, the selection of superior genotypes has been undertaken through successive harvests in previously established intervals. However, this process involves many steps, the evalu... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2020
Biomass energy production in elephant-grass hybrids. Authorship: SOUSA, L. B.; DAHER, R. F.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; STIDA, W. F.; TARDIN, F. D.; VIDAL, A. K. F.; GOMES, A. B. S.; PONCIANO, N. J.; SILVA, V. B. da; FREITAS, R. S. Elephant grass is a forage plant widely spread in Brazil that was initially employed exclusively in the livestock sector as feed for cattle. This grass is characterized by its high productivity and hi... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2019
Estimation of genetic parameters and selection of elephant-grass ( Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.) for forage production using mixed models. Authorship: STIDA, W. F.; DAHER, R. F.; VIANA, A. P.; VIDAL, A. K. F.; FREITAS, R. S.; SILVA, V. B. da; PEREIRA, A. V.; CASSARO, S.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; FURLANI, E. P. The efficient use of fodder and grassland as the basis of animal feed represents a way of raising productivity and reducing production costs. In this scenario, elephant-grass stands out among the most... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Selection among and within full-sib families of elephant grass for energy purposes. Authorship: SILVA, V. B. da; DAHER, R. F.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; GRAVINA, G. de A.; ARAÚJO, M. do S. B. de; CARVALHO JÚNIOR, A. R. de; CRUZ, D. P. da; ALMEIDA, B. de O.; TARDIN, F. D. Pennisetum purpureum Schum. has been a key alternative as an energy source in Brazil because of its higher dry matter accumulation and fiber content. This research aimed to select superior individuals... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Chemical composition and energy yield of elephant-grass biomass as function of five different production ages. Authorship: FREITAS, R. S.; BARBÉ, T. da C.; DAHER, R. F.; VIDAL, A. K. F.; STIDA, W. F.; SILVA, V. B. da; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; PEREIRA, A. V. Abstract Elephant grass has high biomass production, with qualities suitable for conversion into bioenergy, but has long been used exclusively for animal feed and only in recent years has it become an... ...
