Descripción:	Soil fertility of the Brazilian savanna (Cerrado) is natu-rally poor. Extensive areas of pastures located in the central part of the territory are cultivated with Brachiaria grasses, which are less demanding for soil nutrients and lime than other species (Rao et al. 1998). On the other hand, Panicum maximum cultivars, such as the high yielding Mombaça grass recommended for intensive beef and dairy cattle systems (Euclides et al. 2008), must be seeded with a higher amount of fertilizer, especially phosphorus (P). Consequently, an effort is underway to select P. maximum genotypes with low P demand and high responsiveness. The objective of this study was to evaluate dry matter yields of genotypes of P. maximum in response to doses of P and lime in the Brazilian Cerrado.
