Resumen

Descripción

The Panicum maximum breeding program of Embrapa released three cultivars (Tanzânia, Mombaça and Massai) from 1990 to 2001. Due to its advantages over the older cultivars (e.g. Colonião and Tobiatã), these are currently the most planted P. maximum cultivars in Brazil. In its second phase, the program is currently trying to select even superior genotypes to be released as new cultivars in the next few years. The objective of this work was to compare the nutritive value of two new P. maximum genotypes with cultivar Tanzânia when managed under rotational stocking in the Amazon biome.
