Abstract/Contents: | "I. Research Accomplished: 1. Completed planned evaluation of 40 St. Augustinegrass germ plasm entries.; 2. Continued refinement of the new technique for growth development evaluation of multiple germ plasm entries grown until salt stress conditions.; 3. Continued reception and increase of 28 bermudagrasses, 7 bentgrasses, 75 Buffalograsses, 3 Paspalums, and 78 zoysiagrasses.; II. Current Research: 1. Vegetative material of 29 Buffalograss germ plasm entries are being evaluated for salt resistance in the new greenhouse facility.; 2. Pilot studies on vegetative establishment methods for evaluating zoysiagrass vegetative material are still in progress.; III. Research Planned 1986/1987: 1. Completed evaluation of Buffalograss germ plasm (May 1987). Expect to receive additional Buffalograss germ plasm entries from Nebraska this Fall.; 2. Initiate zoysiagrass evaluation (March 1987).; 3. Initiate evaluation of Paspalum germ plasm for salt resistance (March 1987).; 4. Continue accumulation of bentgrass and bermudagrass germ plasm and expand cooperation with New Mexico and Oklahoma bermudagrass programs.; 5. Begin to proto-type long term salt stress growing techniques for further greenhouse and field evaluations on germ plasm which exhibited reasonable salt resistance (May 1987)." |
