| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Acquire additional germplasm through collection and recombination of germplasm already in our collection. 2. Evaluate germplasm with superior turfgrass characteristics including mowing tolerance, color, length of growing season, insect resistance, establishment and recovery of vigor, sod strength, combining ability, and seed production. 3. Obtain inheritance data on important traits, conduct genome size and molecular marker analyses, and evaluate the impact of inbreeding and genetic diversity on variety development." States that "phase one involves breeding of high yielding female lines with advanced male accessions that contribute to seed yield, seedling vigor, and turf performance characteristics. The second phase is the use of flow cytometry to identify crossing accessions of similar ploidy levels. The third phase is to explore chemical applications of plant hormones to enhance seed production." Reports that of 10 culivars screened for resistance to the chinch bug, Cody, Tatanka, and NE91-118 were classified as resistant. This five-year study began in 1998. |

| USGA Summary Points: | Excellent progress toward low-mowing fairway types and good seed types are under evaluation in Texas. Native Turf Group (NTG) had a good year and sold out of buffalograss seed. Tatanka was dropped due to low seed yield. NTG-6 released and seed is available. Seed West and Bamert will develop varieties with the University of Nebraska. Legacy (86-61) was released and is under production by Todd Valley Farms, Inc. Developed three-phase plan to improve seed production: high yielding female lines mated with advance male accessions, flow cytometry to match ploidy levels, plant hormones to enhance seed production. |
