| Abstract/Contents: | "A new green, a new tee, and two new fairways were built during 1996 to streamline initial evaluation of paspalum ecotypes and provide larger sites for additional evaluation of greens- and tee/fairway-types. Initial evaluation is on a green with mowing height 3/16-1/8 inch, which identifies fast-growing tee/fairway types and slow-growing greens types. Variations in slow-release/fast-release nitrogen fertilizers, irrigation, and verticutting were used to establish the new tee and new green from stolons. Two greens types (AP 10, AP 14) and one fairway type (PI 509018-1 from Argentina) are currently being evaluated on golf courses. Three courses in Atlanta - The Standard Club, Berkeley Hills CC, and Atlanta National CC - are evaluating the paspalums; two in Texas - Kings Crossing G&CC in Corpus Christi and The Cliffs near Graford; one in California - Tony Lema GC in San Leandro. Studies are continuing using simple sequence repeats or microsatellites to genetically profile paspalum ecotypes; PRE, POST, and establishment herbicide strategies are being investigated in cooperation with B. J. Johnson; field mole cricket evaluations are being conducted at Tifton, GA, in collaboration with Kris Braman and Wayne Hanna; Bob Carrow has refocused his research program to assess stress tolerance mechanisms in paspalums; the 3 ecotypes being evaluated on golf courses have been planted in Lincoln, NE, Manhattan, KS, Stillwater, OK, and Dallas, TX, to determine their cold thermal threshold/winter hardiness. They have survived -8°F at Blairsville in North Georgia. Somaclonal variation resulting from tissue culture regeneration has resulted in over 100 new selections from among 5500 regenerated plants, with improvements in genetic color (darker green), spread (growth rate), density (short internode length, finer leaf texture) and winter hardiness (6° C lower cold thermal threshold)." |
