- Association BRS Sarandi population had higher crude protein than Planaltina in gamba grass
- Association BRS Sarandi population had lower NDF than Planaltina in gamba grass
- Association BRS Sarandi population had lower ADF than Planaltina in gamba grass
- Association BRS Sarandi population had lower cellulose than Planaltina in gamba grass
- Association BRS Sarandi population had lower hemicellulose than Planaltina in gamba grass
- Observation DM yield did not differ significantly between the two gamba grass populations
- Observation Heritability of DM yield for individual harvests ranged from 0.31 to 0.68
- Observation Heritability of forage quality traits for individual harvests ranged from 0.28 to 0.62
- Observation Multi-harvest models across years gave lower heritability estimates of 0.07–0.27
- Observation Highest predicted annual genetic gain was an increase of 0.45% per year for CP
- Recommendation Breeding programs should prioritize multiple selection cycles, precise phenotyping and genotypic and genomic selection in gamba grass
