| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the history of Kentucky bluegrass breeding programs and cultivar development, explaining the apomictic nature of the species and noting the use of somaclonal variation caused by tissue cultures. Briefly details research "to evaluate progeny from plants derived from our tissue culture program for the presence of somaclonal variation to develop new cultivars of Kentucky bluegrass." Reports that "we have selected five Kentucky bluegrass lines in seed increase in northern Minnesota for potential release." Concludes that "the potential new cultivars of Kentucky bluegrass will be entered into the 2005 NTEP [National Turfgrass Evaluation Program] trials with a potential release date in 2007." |
