Abstract:This study aimed to understand whether re frequency in invaded areas by Urochloa brizantha (A.Rich.) R.D.Webster caused anatomical and physiological changes in this species. Twelve samples were collected per burn treatment in areas with different re frequencies: re exclusion, annual and biennial res.Anatomical, histochemical and physiological analysis were performed on the leaves, rhizomes and roots. Our anatomical results showed that there was an increase in the thickness of the vascular bundle of U. brizanth… Show more
