Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the turf bermudagrass breeding program of G. W. Burton at Tifton, Georgia, and the turf bermudagrass breeding at Oklahoma State University. States that "interspecific (C. dactylon var. dactylon x C. transvaalensis) hybridization has been used to breed improved clonal varieties combining enhanced transition zone adaptation, turf quality, and sod tensile strength." Reports that "research supporting the breeding effort includes Cynodon germplasm acquisition and evaluation, laboratory assessment of freeze tolerance, and study of genetic mechanisms of freeze tolerance." |
