Abstract/Contents: | "In the early 1990s, breeding of zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) began with the collection and evaluation of >1200 accessions from 100 natural Zoysia grasslands and habitats in Japan. Through this program, the accessions 'Asagake' and 'Asamoe', with superior agronomic traits and turf quality, were released. Using trait scores of 12 breeders' lines, we preliminarily analyzed their broad-sense heritability (H2) to collect basic breeding information. This analysis revealed high H2 in spike length (96.3%) and spike color (98.6%), but low H2 in stolon density (30.1%). The analysis revealed lower H2 of physiological traits, especially of plant vigor after winter (44.7%). These results indicate that breeding for morphological traits could be easier than breeding for physiological traits, especially winter hardiness." |
