| Abstract/Contents: | "Creeping bentgrass is considered the premiere turfgrass for use on putting greens. However, here in Georgia, heat and drought stress make it difficult to maintain during the summer months. The traditional breeding progress for heat and drought tolerance in bentgrass is limited largely due to lack of superior stress-tolerant grass germplasm and because of poor understanding of physiological and molecular mechanisms for perennial grass tolerance to drought. Recently, turf scientists at Rutgers University have made progress in identifying important genes controlling heat tolerance and developing markers that may prove useful in selection of cultivars with improved stress tolerance. A bentgrass field trial evaluating 144 diverse lines for heat and drought tolerance was established in 2013 in collaboration with Rutgers scientists. Data from field evaluations will used to validate new genetic markers and determine their usefulness in breeding for improved heat and drought tolerance." |
