Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Develop suitable micropropagation procedures for selected genotypes of bermudagrass, zoysiagrass, saltgrass and buffalograss. 2. Develop suitable shoot tip culture media (STCM) for the four species. 3. Examine cryopreservation of the four species using vitrification methodologies." States that "clones of all 4 species have been established in vitro using a 1/2 strength MS medium with Nitsch & Nitsch vitamins, 5 mg/l of thiamine, 2 mg/l of glycine, 30 g of sucrose with the pH adjusted to 5.7 and 7 g of agar and varying amounts of growth regulators." Also states that "we have succeeded in proliferating both buffalograss and saltgrass using the aforementioned media with high levels of BA [benzyladenine], 10 mg/l," and that "although we have approximately 50 cultures of both bermudagrass and zoysiagrass in vitro, proliferation is minimal and requires further research." This two-year study began in 1998. |
