Author(s): 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... ... |
Author(s): 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... ... |
Author(s): 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... ... |
Author(s): 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... ... |
Author(s): STIDA, W. F.; ALMEIDA, B. de O.; DAHER, R. F.; MORAES, C. R. de O.; VIDAL, A. K. F.; FREITAS, R. S.; TARDIN, F. D.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; FURLANI, E. P.; VIVAS, M. In view of the current global energy landscape, to develop alternative energy mechanisms to the oil has become essential. For that, biomass as well as the use of elephant-grass present themselves as a... ... |
Author(s): SOUSA, L. B. de; DAHER, R. F.; MENEZES, B. R. da S.; RODRIGES, E. V.; TARDIN, F. D.; GRAVINA, G. de A.; PEREIRA, A. V. Além do uso como forrageira, o capim-elefante vem sendo utilizado como fonte de energia alternativa. Isso se deve pela sua alta capacidade de produção de biomassa. É desejável que essa biomassa tenha... ... |
