Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted to "create a genetic linkage map of creeping bentgrass using genomic SSRs (microsatellites) and subsequently identify Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated with dollar spot disease (caused by the fungus Sclerotinia homoeocarpa) resistance." Describes the study, stating that "an intra-specific pseudo F2 mapping population of creeping bentgrass was created from a cross between a dollar spot resistant and a susceptible genotype." Also mentions "a field trial containing replicated plants of the 180 pseudo F2 progeny and 450 F3 and backcross progeny was planted in the fall of 2002 and inoculated with one isolate of the dollar spot fungus in the spring of 2003 and and evaluated for dollar spot disease in 2003 and 2004." Concludes that "the ultimate goal will be to identify 14 distinct linkage groups and cover a larger percentage of the genome. This research will be useful to the advancement of turfgrass breeding and genetics. The SSR markers developed can be used as simple, easily automated markers to compare and join other creeping bentgrass maps. Once QTL's are confirmed, marker-assisted selection can be incorporated into a breeding program to quickly screen germplasm for resistant plants."
