| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses breeding of cool-season turfgrasses. States that "there are two breeding behaviors in cool-season turfgrass species. Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis.) reproduces primarily through an asexual process called apomixis...The other breeding behavior occurring in the remaining important cool-season species is cross-pollination. Breeding approaches such as phenotypic and genotypic recurrent selection can be used on these cool-season turfgrass species." Explains that "since the 1990's, gray leaf spot (caused by Pyricularia grisea) has become a serious turf disease of perennial ryegrass in the United States. Very little resistance has been found in commercial cultivars. In 2000, 34 new sources of resistance were identified at Rutgers University in New Jersey." Explains that "creeping bentgrass is the primary cool-season turfgrass species used for closely cut golf course fairways and putting greens. Dollar spot (Sclerotinia homeocarpa) is the most important disease of this species. Resistance to dollar spot has been reported as being quantitatively inherited." |
