Abstract/Contents:"I. Research accomplished. (1 Initial zoysiagrass evaluation was completed as of fall 1988, where (29) entries were evaluated in four tests.; 2 Zoysiagrass appears to have medium potential for salt resistance in the limited germplasm base that was tested. This plant material base was from Texas collection.; 3 Some zoysiagrass selections appear to have good salt resistance. The selections could be useful in both cultivar improvements and perhaps used in saline environments without additional selection pressure.; 4 Bentgrass germplasm (25 entries) from the improvement program under the direction of Dr. M. C. Engelke was received at the end of 1988. The material is currently evaluated for salt resistance.; and 5 The advance long term study is underway, and the first trial of bentgrass is going to take place in the course of the year.); II. Current Research (1 The initial bentgrass germplasm base is being evaluated for salt resistance.; and 2 Promising bentgrasses will be evaluated in our new advanced salt resistance study set up.); and III. Research Planned 1989/90 (; 1 Continue bentgrass evaluation tests.; 2 Begin to proto-type advance salt resistance studies as an option, or support of our current aeroponic tank system.; and 3 Begin evaluation of the Nebraska buffalograss germplasm base for salt resistance.)"
