W.  aGenética y fitomejoramiento de Andropogon gayanus.h[electronic resource]  c1989  aAllogamous reproductive behavior and the demonstrated existence of ample genetic variation for a number of agronomic traits in Andropogon gayanus suggest a substantial potential for genetic manipulation of the species. Possible breeding objectives are considered and appropriate breeding methods discussed. Three ongoing A. gayanus breeding projects are briefly described. It appears that the major limitation to successful A. gayanus breeding programs lies in the clear definition of relevant breeding objectives and in the development of simple, efficient, and reliable evaluation methodology  aPlant breeding  aPlant genetics  aCapim Andropogon  aMelhoramento Genético Vegetal  aPastagem  aPlanta Gramínea1 aGROF, B.  tIn: TOLEDO, J.
