Abstract

The genotypes Axonopus catharinensis (two origins), Hemarthria altssima (cvs. Florida and Empasc 302), Cynodon sp. cv. Tifon-85 and Paspalum notatum (Pensacola) were evaluated in the spring-summer period in the years of 2006/07 and 2007/08. There were interactons between genotypes and years of evaluaton. In the interval of cuts evaluated, considering
producton of dry mater (DM) and covering of the ground, the two origins of Axonopus catharinensis (11,000kg/ha DM) and Hemarthria altssima cv. Florida (10,700kg/ha DM) indicated adaptaton to the conditons of the North Plateau of Santa Catarina state.
