Estimates of heterosis parameters in elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.) for bioenergy production

Estimates of heterosis parameters in elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.) for bioenergy production

With a high growth rate and a DM yield of up to 80 t ha-1 yr¹, elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.) has been utilized as an alternative source of energy. However, genotypes adapted to and productive in the different regions of Brazil need to be developed. Thus, the objectives of the prese...
