Abstract/Contents: | "Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is a widely used cool-season turfgrass species. Breeding for turf-type perennial ryegrass is challenging because morphological traits that are desirable for turf quality characteristics often do not align with morphological traits that are desirable for seed production. For turfgrass purposes, a prostrate growth habit contributes to low mowing tolerance, enhanced heat tolerance and winter hardiness, and improved traffic tolerance. However, an upright growth habit contributes to improved seed ripening and harvesting conditions for seed production purposes. Thus, the rationale of this study was to improve our understanding of the genetic basis for growth habit morphology in perennial ryegrass. We conducted a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis using the I06 Œ A89 pseudo-F2 perennial ryegrass mapping population. The QTL analyses were conducted with the individual I06 and A89 parent maps and phenotypic data for growth habit, seedhead angle, plant height, vegetative plant width, and total plant width collected from field nurseries during 2017 and 2018. QTL were identified for growth habit (n=11), seedhead angle (n=2), plant height (n=7), vegetative plant width (n=5), and total plant width (n=3) from the I06 and A89 parent genetic linkage maps. Four QTL were identified across multiple environments, and two QTL were significantly associated with multiple morphological traits. This is the first reported effort for QTL mapping of growth habit traits in turf-type perennial ryegrass. These findings will be useful for future studies regarding the genetic basis for assessing growth habit morphology in perennial ryegrass." |
