The objective of this work was, through a path analysis of seed yield in Paspalum notatum, to obtain basic information for using in management strategies to improve seed production and consequently, high natural reseeding and a better persistence of the species in the pasture. The following variables were analyzed: number of vegetative tiller, number of reproductive tiller, number of raceme/inflorescence, number of seeds/inflorescence, weight of 1000 seeds and seed yield. The most correlated variable with seed yield was the number […]

This work was carried out to evaluate the potential of seed production of 25 accessions of the basic collection of white clover from the United States Department of Agriculture. Through weekly samplings performed from 11/6th/2003 to 3/10th/04 the following variables were analyzed: number of inflorescence/plant, number of flowers/inflorescence, number of mature inflorescence/plant, number of mature legumes/inflorescence, weight of 1000 seeds, and seed yield/plant. It was used a complete randomized experimental design with the accessions individually arranged in five replications. Seed […]
