Narrative
First fertile eastern gamagrass triploid (2n=3x=54) with sexual reversal in male flowers of the terminal (tassel) portion of the inflorescence. Differs from normal monoecious sex forms by having two functional female florets in the basal spikelets instead of one. Female fertility estimated by percentage seed set ranges from 35 to 55%, but having 10 to 12 times more female spikelets per inflorescences. Produces 4 to 5 times more seed than fully fertile monoecous inflorescences. Foliage characteristics very similar to female parent, WW-2045.
