Seeds of legumes and grasses have become increasingly important as planting materials to establish forages for animal production in the tropics and subtropics. Availability of high-quality seeds of adapted and productive forage species is essential for successful pasture establishment. However, s...


Chin, H.F.Hanson, Jean[Seed storage]Seed storage

Discusses tissue culture techniques used on some accessions of Cynodon and Digitaria at the Zwai seed multiplication site of ILCA for maintainance and distribution of germplasm. Presents data on the establishment survival and re-establishment of cultures.

Autor: Hanson, Jean

ILCA adheres to the CGIAR policy on germplasm distribution and provides germplasm from its active colleciton free of charge to any bonafide forage worker. The selection of germplasm, preparation and distribution methods in use by the Forage Genetic Resources Unit at ILCA are discused.


Hanson, Jean[Forage germplasm distribution by ILCA]Forage germplasm distribution by ILCA

Looks into ILCA'S genebank which has a collection of over 9000 accessions of forage germplasm of grasses, legumes and browse. The majority of accessions are stored by conventional methods of seed storage confirming to international standards as far as possible. However, there are some species of ...

Hanson, JeanMengistu, S.[Collection of Ethiopian forage germplasm at the International Livestock Centre for Africa]Collection of Ethiopian forage germplasm at the International Livestock Centre for Africa

The reproductive mechanism of forage species determines procedures for seed production and isolation distances needed to obtain uncontaminated seed from cultivars and genotypes so that they remain genetically true to type. A large number of tropical forage species has been identified as being pot...


Hacker, J.B.Hanson, Jean[Crop growth and Development: Reproduction]Crop growth and Development: Reproduction

Forages are usually associated with grasslands, but they also occur and are used widely on roadsides, in fallow areas, and as crop residues. In temperate areas livestock is grazed on domesticated forages. In the tropics livestock use native grasslands (Africa, Australia), naturalized grasslands (...
