The N-fixing legume Periandra mediterranea constrains the invasion of an exotic grass (Melinis minutiflora P. Beauv) by altering soil N cycling.
Nogueira CB, Menéndez E, Ramírez-Bahena MH, Velázquez E, Peix Á, Mateos PF, Scotti MR. Nogueira CB, et al. Sci Rep. 2019 Jul 30;9(1):11033. doi: 10.1038/s41598-019-47380-5. Sci Rep. 2019. PMID: 31363104 Free PMC article.
Melinis minutiflora is an invasive species that threatens the biodiversity of the endemic vegetation of the campo rupestre biome in Brazil, displacing the native vegetation and favouring fire spread. As M. minutiflora invasion has been associated with a high nitroge …

Abundance of invasive grasses is dependent on fire regime and climatic conditions in tropical savannas.
Damasceno G, Fidelis A. Damasceno G, et al. J Environ Manage. 2020 Oct 1;271:111016. doi: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2020.111016. Epub 2020 Jul 4. J Environ Manage. 2020. PMID: 32778299
Early-Dry and Late-Dry fire treatments enhanced the replacement of M. minutiflora by U. brizantha. We found that the influence of precipitation depended on the species: it reduced M. minutiflora but increased U. brizantha abundance. Lower monthly minimum temperature …

Seasonal variation of soluble carbohydrates and starch in Echinolaena inflexa, a native grass species from the Brazilian savanna, and in the invasive grass Melinis minutiflora.
Souza A, Sandrin CZ, Calió MF, Meirelles ST, Pivello VR, Figueiredo-Ribeiro RC. Souza A, et al. Braz J Biol. 2010 May;70(2):395-404. doi: 10.1590/s1519-69842010000200023. Braz J Biol. 2010. PMID: 20549068 Free article.
Chase is an abundant C3 grass species with high biomass production in the Brazilian savanna (cerrado); Melinis minutiflora Beauv. is an African C4 forage grass widespread in cerrado and probably displacing some native herbaceous species. ...The differences in carbohydrate …

Distinctive seed dispersal and seed bank patterns of invasive African grasses favour their invasion in a neotropical savanna.
Xavier RO, Christianini AV, Pegler G, Leite MB, Silva-Matos DM. Xavier RO, et al. Oecologia. 2021 May;196(1):155-169. doi: 10.1007/s00442-021-04904-z. Epub 2021 Apr 4. Oecologia. 2021. PMID: 33813660
Invasive grasses showed low abundance in all compartments and high seed limitation in grasslands, where the seed bank and seed rain were dominated by small-seeded native grasses, but were at least as abundant as the natives in the seed bank and seed rain in savannas, mostly due t …

Effects of molasses grass, Melinis minutiflora volatiles on the foraging behavior of the cereal stemborer parasitoid, Cotesia sesamiae.
Gohole LS, Overholt WA, Khan ZR, Pickett JA, Vet LE. Gohole LS, et al. J Chem Ecol. 2003 Mar;29(3):731-45. doi: 10.1023/a:1022828921763. J Chem Ecol. 2003. PMID: 12757330
The host plants were maize (Zea mays) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), while the nonhost plant was molasses grass (Melinis minutiflora). In single-choice tests, females of C. sesamiae chose volatiles from infested and uninfested host plants and molasses grass over volatiles …
