Abstract

Cratylia argentea (cratília) is a neo-tropical leguminous plant with high resprouting ability, showing great potential as both an animal feed and to fertilize the soil through its N-fixing ability. During scientific expeditions carried out in 2016 to identify and collect germplasm in different states of Brazil, the Terra Ronca State Park (PETeR) stood out as a potential conservation area for this species. There, cratília is well adapted to the dry season, retaining green leaves even during extended dry periods and was found to develop a shrub or climbing habit, depending on light conditions. In the traditional cattle production systems of the region livestock readily consume cratília, making it an important asset for local inhabitants. Based on several populations identified and collected in PETeR, the value of traditional knowledge and use of cratília is discussed as is the potential role of the Park as an in situ conservation unit.

泰拉隆卡州立公园:潜在的天然阿根廷克拉蒂亚(Desv.)巴西Goiás的Kuntze保护区

阿根廷豆科植物Cratylia argentea (cratília)是一种具有高繁殖能力的新热带豆科植物，具有作为动物饲料和通过固氮能力给土壤施肥的巨大潜力。在2016年进行的科学考察中，在巴西不同的州鉴定和收集种质资源，特拉隆卡州立公园(PETeR)作为该物种的潜在保护区脱颖而出。在那里，cratília很好地适应了旱季，即使在长时间的干旱时期也能保持绿叶，并根据光照条件形成灌木或攀缘习性。在该地区传统的养牛生产系统中，牲畜很容易消费cratília，使其成为当地居民的重要资产。根据在彼得发现和收集的几个种群，讨论了传统知识的价值和cratília的使用，以及公园作为就地保护单位的潜在作用。

期刊介绍： The Journal publishes, in English or Spanish, Research Papers and Short Communications on research and development, as well as contributions from practitioners (Farmer Contributions) and Review Articles, related to pastures and forages in the tropics and subtropics. There is no regional focus; the information published should be of interest to a wide readership, encomprising researchers, academics, students, technicians, development workers and farmers. In general, the focus of the Journal is more on sown (''improved'') pastures and forages than on rangeland-specific aspects of natural grasslands, but exceptions are possible (e.g. when a submission is relevant for a particularly broad readership in the pasture and forage science community). The Journal will also consider the occasional publication of associated, but closely related, research in the form of an additional scientific communication platform [e.g. a re-make of the former Genetic Resources Communication series of the former Division of Tropical Crops and Pastures of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia]. Areas of particular interest to the Journal are: Forage Genetic Resources and Livestock Production[...] Environmental Functions of Forages[...] Socio-economic Aspects[...] Topics within the aforementioned areas may include: Diversity evaluation; Agronomy; Establishment (including fertilization); Management and utilization; Animal production; Nutritive value; Biotic stresses (pests and diseases, weeds); Abiotic stresses (soil fertility, water, temperature); Genetics and breeding; Biogeography and germplasm collections; Seed production; Ecology; Physiology; Rhizobiology (including BNF, BNI, mycorrhizae); Forage conservation; Economics; Multilocational experimentation; Modelling.
