· Family : Fabaceae
Stylosanthes is a genus offlowering plants in thelegume family,and contains numerous highly importantpasture andforage species.
Species within the genus have many properties that make them valuable forage species. They are capable ofnitrogen fixation and are capable of improving soil fertility in addition to providing high protein stock feed. The genus is also noted for its ability to extract phosphorus from soils where it is not available to other species. Seeds are hard and long lived leading to high soil seed banks and rapid recovery following fire or heavy grazing. Seed survives passage through the gut of grazing animals and is dispersed widely in this manner allowing for rapid dispersal. Many species are adapted to hot, dry climates and are drought resistant
These traits have made the genus the world’s most widely used tropical pasture legume. Stylosanthes has been introduced across the tropical world as a pasture species. Its most important use has been inAustralia where over a million hectares of primarily native pasture have been oversown with Stylosanthes species; primarilyS. hamata, S. scabra and S. humilis This can lead to a ten-fold increase in productivity, though **3 fold increases are normal. Stylosanthes are the most important forage legumes inSouth America and the most important pasture legumes of tropicalIndia. Stylosanthes are also important forage species in tropical Africa.
Stylosanthes are important green manure species inWest andCentral Africa, primarilyS. guianensis and S. hamata, and species are planted and harvested for commercial leaf meal production for poultry and pig feed inChina andIndia. The genus has also been utilized as a nitrogen into low or organic cropping systems. Species are utilized as fallow species inPeru,Africa andAustralia. S. hamata used for intercropping with grain crops in India and Africa with yield increases up to *5%.
Stylosanthes species have been utilized for land reclamation, soil
stabilization and soil regeneration work because of their drought
resistance, ability to restore soil fertility, improve soil
physical properties and provide permanent vegetation cover. Despite
their ability to dramatically improve productivity in grazing
lands, Stylosanthes can also cause problems. Stylosanthes can
dominate pasture at the expense of grass which can lead to problems
because the plants provides less protection fromerosion
than grass Stylosanthes
dominance can also lead tosoil
acidification,
as soil nitrate levels build up and are then leached down the soil
profile. Stylosanthes species are considered invasive species and
environmental weeds in Australia, Taiwan, the pacific Islands and
Hawaii. Many Stylosanthes species are susceptible
toanthracnose
fungus which retards growth and seed development and this had led
to numerous commercial cultivars being abandoned.
