Abstract

Highlights: [•] We assessed yield and persistence of elite grass cultivars across Mediterranean sites. [•] Cultivar adaptive responses were modelled as a function of relevant climatic variables. [•] Our results support crop recommendation and breeding, also in view of climate change. [•] Tall fescue has general interest for Mediterranean drought-prone areas. [•] Completely summer-dormant cocksfoot with improved yield can be useful in warmer sites. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
