Abstract/Contents: | "As water restrictions for turf are becoming more prevalent, it is vital to direct turfgrass breeding efforts towards the development of drought tolerant cultivars that would allow a more sustainable use of natural resources. St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] is a warm-season grass widely used in home lawns and landscapes across the Southern United States because of its excellent shade tolerance and turf quality. However, the species' features are negatively affected under drought conditions, being one of the main impediments to St. Augustinegrass performance. Drought stress is firstly sensed by roots, but the molecular mechanisms involved in this process are still not fully understood. Therefore, this study aims to explore changes in gene expression in root tissue of two contrasting St. Augustinegrass genotypes, 'XSA 10098' (drought-resistant) and 'Raleigh' (drought-sensitive), to characterize their molecular responses to drought stress. The identification of candidate genes associated with drought resistance via transcriptomic analysis would help understand how roots respond to drought stress and accelerate the breeding process." |
