Abstract/Contents: | Provides a progress report "on improvements in gray leaf spot resistance in perennial ryegrass and brown patch resistance in tall fescue." Explains that "gray leaf spot (caused by Pyricularia grisea [Cooke] Sacc) has become a devastating...disease of perennial ryegrass since the early 1990's in the northeastern US [United States] and other humid parts of the USA [United States of America]." Mentions that "in the fall of 2004, a...National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) was started for perennial ryegrass throughout the US...The results...showed at least 17 of the...varieties selected for gray leaf spot resistance rated an average gray leaf spot rating of 8 or better out of 9 with 9 = most resistance." Also discusses tall fescue, stating that "this is a disease that occurs throughout the US on tall fescue with slow continual progress for improved resistance being developed." Notes that "the most promising plans [plants] were identified by their persistence and appearance in old turfs and their performance in spaced-plant nurseries, mowed clonal evaluation tests, a single-plant progeny trials under turf maintenance." |
