| Abstract/Contents: | "Zoysiagrasses (Zoysia spp.) have risen in popularity in the United States since their introduction due to their reputation as a low input warm season turf. This primarily vegetatively propagated turf is well suited to the southeastern U.S. as a result of its wide general tolerances to drought, shade, and salinity. However, little progress has been made in advancing the winter hardiness of zoysia since the introduction of Meyer in the 1950's, a factor that prevents further spread of the species north of the transition zone. The development of increased tolerance to extreme temperatures has become more relevant over the years, and breeding efforts stand to benefit considerably from a greater knowledge base behind the physiology of winter hardiness and freeze tolerance. The goal of this study was to elucidate the genetic control of freeze tolerance in zoysiagrass in order to facilitate selection of more freeze tolerant materials. A SNP-based high-density linkage map of Z. japonica was generated using a 175 pseudo-F2 mapping population of Meyer, the most freeze tolerant zoysiagrass cultivar x 'Victoria', a freeze susceptible cultivar with desirable turf quality. A randomized complete block design of the mapping population was implemented for cold acclimated and non-acclimated treatments, each under two sub-zero temperature treatments (-8, -11) based off the LT50 of the parent cultivars. Data was collected on regrowth and surviving green tissue for six weeks following freezing on a visual scale of 0-5. Seventy-eight putative QTL associated with cold acclimation and freezing tolerance were identified. Overlap between these results and previously identified winter survival QTL would strengthen associations between those regions and freezing tolerance. Markers showing the strongest associations with these regions could be implemented in a marker assisted selection program to transfer freeze tolerance into germplasm of interest with the ultimate goal of creating elite zoysiagrass cultivars." |
