Resumo: Dry matter production of fourteen recently introduced perennial grasses was compared with that of pangolagrass (Digitaria decumbens) and of "Taiwan A-24" (Digitaria pentzii) in cutting trials at the Matão Training Center of the IRI Research Institute in the State of São Paulo. Each grass was evaluated at two soil fertility levels on a red latosol. Brachiaria decumbens (IRI 562) was the outstanding grass with respect to dry matter yield over a two year period. Its yield was significantly higher than that of any of the other grasses, at both high and low fertilizer levels. Another Brachiaria species, IRI 409, and various other Digitaria species were superior to pangolagrass and to "Taiwan A-24". Additional research on animal acceptability, nutritive value, and performance under grazing is necessary for a better evaluation of this new germsplasm as promising contributions to pasture improvement in South-Central Brazil.

Foram comparadas quatorze gramíneas perenes, em um ensaio de corte, no Centro de Treinamento de Matão, do Instituto de Pesquisas IRI, no Estado de São Paulo. Cada gramínea foi avaliada em dois níveis diferentes de fertilidade de solo, em um latossolo vermelho. Brachiaria decumbens (IRI 562) foi excelente com respeito ao rendimento de matéria sêca durante um período de dois anos. Seu rendimento foi significativamente mais alto do que o de qualquer das outras gramíneas, tanto em alta fertilidade como em baixa. Uma outra Brachiaria sp., IRI 409, e várias outras Digitaria foram também superiores ao capim pangola e ao pangola "Taiwan A-24". É necessário que sejam realizados outros estudos sôbre a aceitação pelos animais, valor nutritivo e comportamento sob pastoreio, para melhor avaliação desses novos germoplasmas como contribuições promissoras para o melhoramento de pastagens no Brasil Central.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraBuller, R.
