USGA Summary Points:Continued progress was made in obtaining new sources of turfgrass germplasm. These sources are being used to enhance the Rutgers breeding program. Modified population backcrossing and continued cycles of phenotypic and genotypic selection combined with increasing sources of genetic diversity in turfgrass germplasm. This has resulted in the continued development and release of top performing varieties in the NTEP Three new tall fescues and 6 fine fescues were released in 2011. Published or have in press over 9 referred journal articles in 2010.
