Although the low-mimosine selections did indeed have lower mimosine than the control cultivars, their dry matter yield was also inferior (about two-thirds of cv. Cunningham). Some possible reasons for this are discussed.Open Accessfeed cropsleucaena leucocephalavariedadesselecciónmimosinahibridosrendimientomateria secafitomejoramientotoxicidadaustralialeucaenaleguminosasgenéticacaracterísticas agronómicashibridacionoceaniaJournal Article
