ARTICLE - Estimation of genetic parameters and selection of Brachiaria humidicola progenies using a selection index

The objectives of this study were to estimate genetic parameters for agronomic and nutritive value traits for leaves andstems of Brachiaria humidicola progenies and to compare the selection using an additive index considering the agronomic traits aloneor combined with the main nutritive value traits...
