| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study to "determine the broad and narrow sense heritabilities of salt gland density in zoysiagrass. As salt gland density has been found to be an important salt tolerance mechanism in other turfgrasses in the Chloridoideae subfamily (i.e., bermudagrass, buffalograss), results should be applicable to breeding programs of these species as well." States that "results show a broad range of salinity tolerance. The most tolerant entries were Palisades, El Toro, J3-2, P58, Belair, Meyer, and Crowne. In addition, salt gland density was highly correlated with salt tolerance, indicating that salt gland density is an important salt tolerance mechanism in zoysiagrass." This three-year study began in 1998. |

| USGA Summary Points: | Salt tolerance in bermudagrass, buffalograss, zoysiagrass, and saltgrass is strongly associated with salt exclusion from salt glands of the leaves. Salt gland density on leaves plays a premier role in salt tolerance in Chloridoid turfgrasses. Heritability estimates (broad-sense) of salt gland density in zoysiagrass indicates the trait could be used to select for better salinity resistance. Narrow-sense heritability estimates for salt gland density in zoysiagrass will be available next year. |
