| Abstract/Contents: | "Some interspecific hybrids between creeping bentgrass and colonial bentgrass were found to have excellent dollar spot resistance in a field test in 2001 (Belanger et al., 2002). We are interested in pursuing this observation both as a means of developing improved cultivars and as a way of understanding the mechanism of resistance. The identification of hybrid plants with excellent dollar spot resistance offers us the possibility of isolating the genes involved in the resistance. We are constructing a subtraction library in an attempt to isolate genes expressed in the dollar spot resistant hybrids but not in the creeping bentgrass dollar spot susceptible pollent parent. In this method cDNAs which are expressed in both plants are selectively removed from the reaction, whereas those that are expressed only in the hybrid are retained. These cDNAs are then used to generate a subtracted library and the resulting clones sequenced to identify the genes. Hopefully some of the differentially expressed genes will be those responsible for the observed disease resistance. Ultimately, the identification of genes responsible for dollar spot resistance will be useful in enhancing the efficiency of bentgrass breeding programs." |
