Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a project designed "to develop techniques to screen large numbers of germplasm accessions for tolerances to extreme temperatures and coverages by sheets of ice, and thereby attempt to aid the breeding program to improve the adaptation of greens-type Poa annua cultivars within regions of intended use." Addresses five areas of the project currently in progress, including assessing the relative low-temperature tolerance among ecotypes, assessing the relative survival of Poa and bentgrass given a cycling of freeze-thaw conditions, determining the artificial conditions for assessing heat tolerance among ecotypes, determining the artificial conditions necessary for assessing ice coverage tolerance among ecotypes, and examining the root dynamics of ecotypes throughout the seasons and during periods of extreme temperature stress. |
