| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Collect, select, breed, and develop genetically stable and phenotypically uniform cultivars of greens-type Poa annua for commercial production. 2. Develop techniques to screen large numbers of germplasm accessions for tolerance to extreme temperatures and coverage by sheets of ice. 3. Identify genetic markers associated with genetic loci (genes) controlling agronomically important traits and specific stress tolerances in order to aid in the breeding and development of improved cultivars of greens-type Poa annua." States that "heat tolerance testing of greens-type Poa annua selections continues to be the weak link in the project." This five-year study began in 1998. |

| USGA Summary Points: | General problem remains: best turf types are the low (or limited) seed producers. Root biology will be evaluated under high and low temperature stress using field camera tubes. Substantial effort devoted to request the US Patent and Trademark Office to re-examine the Minnesota Utility Patent (US Patent 5,912,412). Cooperating with Laval University on cold hardiness. Regional testing of 60 selections scheduled for fall, 2001. |
