| Abstract/Contents: | "Rutgers University has had formal ties with the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Republic of Kyrgystan for several years. Reciprocal germplasm exchange agreements have been formulated with a number of prominent research institutions, including Tashkent State Agrarian University, the Uzbek Scientific Research Institute of Fruit Growing, Viticulture and Winemaking named after R. R. Shreder, the Uzbek Scientific Research Institute of Plant Industry (formerly The Vavilov Institute), the Uzbek Scientific Research Institute of Vegetable-Melon and Potato Growing, the Uzbek Scientific Research Institute of Foresty, the Botany Institute and the Kyrgyz Agrarian Academy, which includes five Scientific Institutes. The 2003 - 2005 joint turfgrass project between Rutgers University and Tashkent State Agrarian University was approved by both Uzbek Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources and the USDA. Through this project, Rutgers scientists have successfully collected and otherwise obtained potentially valuable turfgrass germplasm from Central Asia. The genetic improvement of North American turfgrass species by the introduction, evaluation, and incorporation on desirable traits from unique accessions from around the world has proven to be a successful strategy. The focus of collection efforts continues to be on potentially shade tolerant grasses, grasses that appear productive on marginal, overgrazed lands, and grasses resistant to heat, drought, diseases and insects. The partnerships between Rutgers and Central Asian institutions and germplasm acquisition in the region have been due to efforts and contacts by Dr. David Zaurov. Currently, turfgrass germplasm from Central Asian is not well represented in U.S. collections. Through these efforts, Rutgers University currently possesses the largest and most diverse and unique collection of Central Asian turfgrass germplasm in the U.S." |
