Stylosanthes accessions for medium-altitude acid soils

Thirty-four Stylosanthes scabra, 20 S. guianensis and 66 S. hamata accessions were compared for biomass production on an acid soil in a medium-altitude subhumid environment in southern Ethiopia. Accessions S. scabra (ILCA 12555, 11625, 11599 and 11608), S. guianensis (ILCA 11737 and 11776) and S. ha...
