0PI 634941'HIGHLANDER'Tripsacum dactyloides (L.) L. Mississippi, United StatesPVPONot Available2004DEVELOPEDCultivarNative, warm season, perennial grass selected for superior vigor, growth form, disease resistance and forage attributes from among 72 initial collections and 12 superior forage selections. Yields in excess of 15 Mg ha-1 were reported in regional trials in the southeastern U.S. Forage quality estimates of crude protein range from 60 to 110 g kg-1 DM, acid detergent fiber from 370 to 420 g kg-1 DM, neutral detergent fiber from 670 to 730 g kg-1 DM, and in vitro dry matter digestibility from 600 to 740 g kg-1 DM. Appears to have resistance to Rhizoctonia sp. and Pythium sp. Well adapted for use in the eastern portions of USDA Hardiness Zones 6b to 8a, using Interstate 35 as the western limit. Current testing has not completely substantiated Zone 6b as the northern limit of range of adaptation. A tetraploid (2n=72) and reproduces by facultative apomixes.1657230PI 634941
