Abstract/Contents: | "The objective of this study was to test the freezing tolerance of a medium-fine textured ecotype (DALZ 1301) of zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) and six fine-textured interspecific hybrids (DALZ 1304- 1309) derived from crosses between Z. minima (Colenso) Zoltov. or Z. pauciflora (Mez.) and Z. matrella (L.) Merr. after cold acclimation under field (FE-1 and FE-2) and controlled-environment conditions (GC-1 and GC-2) in 2014 and 2015. Following acclimation, samples were subjected to six freezing treatments (-3, -5, -7, -9, -11, and -13°C) for 1 h, thawed, and placed under optimum greenhouse conditions for recovery. Greenup was visually rated on a 1 to 9 scale (1 = brown; 9 = completely green; 5 = acceptable) at 5 wk. Lethal temperatures (LT50) for each geno-type were determined by nonlinear regression. Mean LT50 for field-acclimated samples ranged from -5.5°C (DALZ 1307) to -9.3°C (Meyer). Mean LT50for controlled-acclimation samples ranged from -1.6°C (DALZ 1304) to -9.9°C (Meyer) in GC-1 and from -4.8°C (DALZ 1304) to -9.4°C (Meyer) for GC-2. The LT50 of DALZ 1301 and Meyer were statistically similar, but interspecific hybrids were less freeze tolerant than Meyer. Results suggest a limited potential of Z. minima, Z. pauciflora, and Z. matrella lines to impart freezing tolerance. Additionally, high correlations (R2 = 0.718-0.767) of lethal temperatures with field and controlled acclimation experiments, suggest controlled-environment acclimation is suitable for testing freezing tolerance in zoysia." |
