Abstract/Contents: | "The turfgrass industry ultimately has its roots in the natural world, and perhaps this is no more evident than in the amenity grass seed breeding sector: breeders attempt to satisfy market demands with new varieties. However, any programme of development can only start from species found naturally in the wild, which can than be crossed with other samples in the attempt to breed a new cultivar." |
