Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the variations in root dry matter mass (RDM) and the percentage distribution (PD) of the root density of Florico grass (Cynodon nlemfuensis) in the 0-40-cm soil layer, when managed under different grazing strategies. Two defoliation frequencies (90 and 95% light interception, as the criterion for allowing animals in the paddock) and two defoliation severities (post-grazing heights of 20 or 30 cm) were assessed. Four seasonal evaluations of the root system were perform… Show more

“…The balance between the shoot and root dry weight in the seedlings from cuttings with 3 buds led to the best investment in roots and improved the seedling quality. This relationship is of fundamental importance for the organization and functioning of the physiological processes and for plant development, where the root is the energy source and the aerial part is a drain on the organic reserves (Barros et al, 2017).…”
