| Abstract/Contents: | "Accessions continue to be added to the current germplasm collection. Four private companies have been actively involved with cooperative acquisition and assessment of materials introduced from this program. A fifth company is in negotiation for cooperative efforts with the intention of marketing into Europe as well as the United States. Two multi-day collection trips occurred in 1995. The major collection event included sites in Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia. A second effort involved previously-unexplored areas of New England. Numerous opportunities in conjunction with other events permitted collection during single day travel. Progeny from 140 additional collections were planted in Rhode Island in 1995 for turf trial evaluation. Earlier genotype collections determined to be superior in turf trials and brown patch resistance screening in Rhode Island have been planted into space plantings for seed production in both Oregon and Rhode Island. Additional polycross plantings were established in Rhode Island in fall, 1995, including materials screened for brown patch resistance in greenhouse trials. Ms. Pei-Yu Zeng, an M.S. degree student, completed advanced greenhouse screening trials for Rhizoctonia sp. (brown patch) resistance in 277 Colonial bentgrasses. She completed her degree in summer 1995. Posters have been presented on this work at two conferences. Students in Drs. Ruemmele's and Chandlee's plant breeding and genetics class screened duplicate material to Ms. Zeng's efforts as a lab exercise in spring 1995. Some of Dr. William Rumball's material acquired from Rutgers' plots have shown superior brown patch resistance. Other accessions from various collection efforts have also demonstrated resistance to brown patch. Molecular efforts have included successful preparation of both creeping and Colonial bentgrass in tissue culture suitable for gene transfer. We are seeing chitinase genes from multiple sources to introduce into these cultures using a newly-acquired gene gun." |
