Forage production in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) depends on elongation of existing leaves and production of new leaves and tillers. Genetic selection for high leaf elongation rate (LER), however, results in plants with limited tillering capacity. Our objective was to examine how the development of individual leaves and tillers affects total tiller production in populations of tall fescue selected for high or low LER. Seedlings were grown for 32 to 70 d in controlled environment chambers (500 μmol m -2 s -1 PPFD, 14-h photoperiod). The low LER (high tillering) population produced twice as many coleoptile tillers as the high LER population, and coleoptile tillers and their progeny accounted for 80% of the difference between populations in tillers per plant after four tiller production cycles
