The objective of this study was to compare two populations of Crioula alfalfa cultivars, selected by the length of the seedling second internode (Crioula-LI, long internode = 2.5 cm; Crioula-SI, short internode = 1.5 cm) with Alfagraze cultivar in order to verify the seedling morphology value for the selection of more prostrate plants. The plants were grown individually in pots in a semi-protected environment and harvested at 74, 104, 134, 164, 194 and 224 days. Crioula populations varied in terms […]
