Agronomic performance of Stylosanthes guianensis cv. Pucallpa in the American tropical rain forest ecosystem
Adaptability of 5 grass and 13 legume accessions tested in 34 regional agronomic trials throughout the South American humid tropics was assessed by conducting multilocational analysis on seasonal dry matter yield at 12 weeks regrowth. Among legumes, Stylosanthes guianensis CIAT 184 and 136, Desmo...
