Abstract/Contents:Numerous African cultivars and also parental lines and F1 and F2 entries from a collection held in Florida were tested for several agronomic characters, including disease and insect resistance and palatability. Amongst the African cultivars, parental lines outyielded hybrids and F1s outyielded F2s. Digitaria sp. '299892', D. valida '299850' and hybrids involving these two lines occupied the first six positions in the overall rating of the Florida entries. All specimens tested were Digitaria with the exception of one sample each of Cynodon Lirsutus, Paspalum notatum, Brochiario sp. and Hemarthria altissima.
