Obtaining tetraploid plants of ruzigrass (Brachiaria ruziziensis) [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014 The objective of the present work was to induce chromosome doubling in genotypes of Brachiaria ruziziensis with potential for production of good-quality biomass and tolerance/resistance to stress caused by aluminum and spittlebugs. Germinated seeds of B. ruziziensis were immersed in 0.1% colchicine solution for 2 or 3 hours. Ploidy level was determined
