Forage Evaluation and Quality in Florida
Warm-season grasses, also called C4, are the predominant forages for ruminant production in Florida. The C4 grasses grow well under high temperatures and generally cultivated between 25 N and 25 S of the equator. The C4 grasses are more efficient in fixing carbon dioxide than other grasses; however, they have a specialized thick-walled parenchyma bundle sheath around each vascular bundle, and m...

متن کاملFACTSHEET Summer dormancy in temperate forage plants
One of the most potent of these drought survival traits is summer dormancy. Plants that give either nil or minimal growth after rainfall or irrigation in summer are expressing summer dormancy. There have been several field experiments conducted over the recent drought periods where grasses with the summer dormancy trait have had much better survival over extended and intensely dry periods than ...
متن کاملDeveloping heterotic groups for hybrid breeding in crop plants with emphasizing on forage crops
Exploitation of heterosis in hybrid breeding and development of synthetic cultivars is an essential procedure in plant breeding programs. The main goal of hybrid breeding programs is to select desirable parental genotypes to maximize the expression of heterosis. However, since development of high yielding hybrids and synthetic cultivars are costly and time-consuming, the accurate prediction of ...
متن کاملNew/emerging Measurements for Forage Quality
A nationally accepted standard hay test for alfalfa hay has included measurement of Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), Dry Matter (DM) and Crude Protein (CP). Total Digestible Nutrients (TDN) has typically been calculated directly from a fiber measurement, usually ADF. However, this is likely to change. While there are a range of points of view on forage testing, it is l...
