| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Develop suitable micropropagation procedures for selected genotypes of bermudagrass, zoysiagrass, saltgrass and buffalograss. 2. Develop suitable shoot tip culture media (SCTM) for the four species. 3. Examine cryopreservation of the four species using vitrificiation methodologies." States that "three cryopreservation methods are being tested: two-step cooling, vitrification, and encapsulation/dehydration." Reports that although clean cultures have been established with both saltgrass and bermudagrass, the proliferation rates are minimal." Also, "buffalograss has been cryopreserved with the vitrification system." This three-year study began in 1998. |

| USGA Summary Points: | Three cryopreservation methods are being tested: two-step cooling, vitrification, and encapsulation/dehydration. Cooling rate was important - more rapidly cooled shoot tips showed higher levels of survival. Attention to quality of shoot tips is important - need axillary meristems. For buffalograss, vitrification had worked the best. Prograss is being made to cryopreserve bermudagrass and saltgrass. Micropropagation systems for buffalograss and zoysiagrass are needed that will allow sufficient proliferation rates for cryopreservation studies. |
