| Abstract/Contents: | "Genetic resistance to dollar spot disease (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennet) would be a promising alternative to chemical, cultural and bio-control methods. Heritable variation in disease resistance is the basis for breeding disease resistant varieties. The objective of this study was to (i) evaluate the response of 500 genotypes to the fungus S. homoeocarpa, in two locations, (ii) determine broad sense heritability of dollar spot in creeping bentgrass through replicated clonal material (iii) determine narrow sense heritability based on parent progeny regression. In the spring of 1998, 500 genotypes of creeping bentgrass, collected from New Jersey, New York, and Arizona, were arranged in a randomized complete block design with 6 replications in two locations. Five isolates of S. homoeocarpa were used to inoculate the field studies. Dollar spot resistance was evaluated weekly using a 1 to 9 scale. Ten resistant and ten susceptible genotypes were evaluated for lesion development throughout the growing season. Controlled crosses of two resistant and two susceptible genotypes were made to determine narrow sense heritability. Approximately 12 genotypes out of 500 maintained adequate resistance to dollar spot over 2 years and 2 locations. Genotype responses and heritability of dollar spot resistance will be discussed." |
