| Abstract/Contents: | "The turf bermudagrass breeding program at Oklahoma State University seeks to develop improved seed- and vegetatively-propagated cultivars for the transition zone. Specific goals of the project are to: 1) assemble and evaluate Cynodon germplasm accessions for important descriptors, 2) improve bermudagrass breeding populations for seed production potential and traits conditioning turf performance, and 3) identify bermudagrass parental plants with superior combining ability for use in producing inter- and intra-specific F, hybrids. Recurrent selection (RS) for turf performance traits was continued in broad genetic base C. dactylon populations in 1999-2000. RS in these populations has increased turf quality, transition zone adaptions, and seed production potential. Two new cultivars, OKSA 91-11 and OKS 95-1, have resulted from the cumulative breeding effort. The breeding effort has reached the threshold point where new incrementally improved varieties will begin in 2001. Additional elite plants were selected in 1999-2000 from RS breeding nurseries to generate new experimental varieties. Intra- and inter-specific crosses were made to generate F1 progeny populations for evaluation as potential vegetatively-propagated hybrid turf bermudagrass cultivars. Initial screening of approximately 2,000 F1 C dactylon x C. transvaalensis hybrids transplated into field nurseries in spring 1999 produced 112 plants for continued testing. About 1200 new F1 interspecific hybrid plants were established in screening nurseries in spring 2000. The interspecific hybrid OKC 18-4, with good performance to date in the 1997 NTEP bermudagrass trial, is a candidate for release as a commercial variety." |
