Abstract:Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) cultivars used for forage in the southeastern United States are primarily diploids. Although producers favor tetraploid traits, for example, wider leaf blades and fewer inflorescences, compared to diploids, there are barriers to their greater use, including apomictic reproduction, lesser frost tolerance, and later initiation of spring growth. By overcoming the apomixis barrier, viable tetraploid options are now available. This study compared annual and seasonal forage accum… Show more
