Popis: This study assessed the morphological and nutritional diversity induced through gamma irradiation in Lehmann’s love grass. Seed were irradiated at doses of 0, 100, 200, 300, 450, 600, 900, and 1400 Gy. Ten agronomic traits related with forage quality were evaluated and used to select the mutants, which were confirmed by cluster analysis and multivariate analysis of variance and then characterized by nutritional and molecular characterization. Mutants with 16–20% less (p
