Abstract/Contents: | "AP-10 (greens) and Fwy-1 (PI 509018-1: fairway/tees) ecotypes are slated for submission to the University of Georgia germplasm release committee during early 1999. Sufficient vegetative material will be available if the releases are successful. These paspalums have exhibited excellent aggressiveness and performance on golf courses and under sod production. The genetic color is a darker green and turf quality traits are parallel or better than most dwarf bermudas. Genetic analysis research involving simple sequence repeats (SSRs or microsatellites) has progressed to the point of effectively profiling individual ecotypes for plant variety protection using trinucleotide repeats. Wear tolerance mechanisms differ between paspalum and bermuda. Recoverability rates were identical between the two species. Wear tolerance in paspalum was attributed to leaf total cell wall contents (50% of the variability) while tolerance in bermuda was due to stem moisture (41%) and stem cellulose (32%). Fertility studies have revealed that paspalum is more highly responsive to CaNO3 than NH4NO3, NH4SO4, or urea. These highly soluble fertilizers appear to be critical for rapid grow in and recoverability, and may be important during long-term management in stressed environments." |
