Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Off-site seashore paspalum ecotpe [ecotype] evaluations with industry collaboration. 2. Creation of additional genetic diversity within the species. 3. Genetic profiling of ecotypes." States that "three accessions were released from quarantine: one from South Africa, one from the Bahamas, and one from Belize." Reports that "Confront + MSMA is providing 70% suppression of paspalum encroachment into bermudagrass with minimal injury to the bermuda, but multiple applications will be needed to completely take out the paspalum." Also reports that "experimental 561-79, a selection out of Argentina, has broad-based resistance to most of the insect problems: mole crickets, armyworm, white grubs, spittle bugs." Also lists paspalum ecotypes with good salinity tolerance. This five-year study began in 1998. |

USGA Summary Points: | Licensed one fairway type seashore paspalum (Sea Isle I) to 24 growers in 9 states. The release of a putting green is pending (tied up in litigation). Three accessions released from quarantine: South Africa, Bahamas, and Belize. A selection from Argentina, 561-79, has broad-based resistance to most insect problems. One hybrid (Hyb7 x Q36313) nicks well with other parental clones and produces a good amount of seed. More than 2500 hybrid progeny were transplanted with about 400 plants from Hyb7 x Q36313. Somaclonal variants did not out perform any of the parents form which they were generated. |
