Selection of stevia elite genotypes aiming at the development of cultivars adapted to the Brazilian Savanna ; Selección de genotipos élite de estevia con el objetivo de desarrollar cultivos adaptados a la Sabana Brasileña

In this work, the objective was to evaluate morphoagronomic traits, correlate and select elite genotypes of Stevia rebaudiana (Bert.) Hemsley with high productivity, and adapted to Brazilian Savanna conditions. A total of 230 genotypes were evaluated, from the Embrapa Cerrados Working Collection, from 2018 to 2019, with 24 evaluations, carried out in six cuts, with each cut representing a certain moment of generation of the response data of the analyzed genotypes. Four traits were analyzed: green biomass production (g), plant height (cm), tillering number and juvenile period of each individual... Mehr ...
