As mulheres durante as fases pré e pós-menopausa apresentam carência de estrogênio, o que acarreta diversos sintomas, destacando os vasomotores, principalmente fogachos. Existem tratamentos reposição hormonal para controle dessas manifestações clínicas, dentre eles, terapias com a espécie medicinal Trifolium pratense L., conhecida popularmente como trevo-vermelho ou Red clover. No Brasil, exist...

The objective of this experiment was to determine if providing ewes in the final trimester pregnancy with choice from diverse diet components would reduce markers oxidative and metabolic stress improve lamb birth weights relative offered only one forage species, repetitively. Fifty-four, twin bearing Coopworth [initial live weight (LW) = 69.82 ± 1.16 kg] were blocked by onto iso-energetic diets...

This study evaluated the synergism between several P-solubilizing fungi isolates and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve clover ( Trifolium pratense) growth in the presence of Araxá apatite. Clover was sown directly in plastic pots with 300g of sterilized washed sand, vermiculite and sepiolite 1:1:1 (v:v:v) as substrate, and grown in a controlled environment chamber. The substrate was ferti...

In the conditions of northern arable farming, productivity and nutritional value dry mass pure stand Tr. pratense three-component agrophytocenoses with participation meadow clover, as well legume cereal representatives ( Galega orientalis Lam., Medicago varia Mart., Bromus inermis Leys., Phlum L.) were studied. Against background spring fertilizing N45P60K90 two-time mowing, yield biomass grass...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Current agricultural practices are based on growing monocultures or binary mixtures over large areas, with a resultant impoverishing effect on biodiversity at several trophic levels. The effects of increasing the biodiversity of a sward mixture on dry matter yield and unsown species invasion were studied. METHODS A field experiment involving four grassland species [two gra...

1. Tropospheric ozone (O 3 ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) are significant drivers of plant growth and chemical composition. We hypothesized that exposure to elevated concentrations of O 3 and CO 2 , singly and in combination, would modify the chemical composition of Trifolium and thus alter its digestibility and nutritive quality for ruminant herbivores. 2. We tested our hypothesis by collecting ...

Soils can serve as sorbents for phosphorus (P), negating the need for artificial sorbents. The purpose of this study was to compare soils with different properties for their effect on nutrient levels in effluent. Four soils were mixed with sand and packed into columns 0.5 m long, with or without compost on the surface. Infiltration and effluent concentrations were measured before and after grow...
