| Abstract | MOST breeding investigations with perennial forage grasses have concentrated primarily on developing methods for improving forage yield. Relatively little attention has been given to obtaining information concerning breeding behavior for important components of forage and seed yield or their selection potentials. Moreover, many basic studies on grass breeding have been confined to evaluating relatively few selections representing a rather restricted range of possible genotypes within any one species. The present study was designed to gain additional information on breeding behavior of a substantial number of bromegrass clones representing two diverse levels of selection for each of three components of forage and seed yield. Detailed evaluations of clones, their topcross progenies, and check varieties for several forage and seed attributes were made for elucidation of breeding concepts, pre- |
