Summary: In search of new cultivars with differentials that better meet the needs of the cattle ranchers, crosses between five sexual plants and the apomictic accessions PM20, PM21 and Myiage were carried out at Embrapa Beef Cattle, Campo Grande, MS, Brazil. Accessions PM20 and PM21 were used to generate shorter hybrids for use under grazing and for crop-livestock integration; Myiage was used because of its ability to retain seeds.
