Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. To produce creeping bentgrass cultivars through a combination of genetic engineering and breeding. 2. Provide golf course managers with more effective and selective weed control by developing herbicide-resistant cultivars. 3. To produce creeping bentgrass cultivars with improved disease resistance and abiotic stress tolerance that can be maintained in a more environmentally sound and cost-effective manner." Reviews the overall project goals and reports that researchers "produced transgenic plants with the barley HVA-1 gene that increases potential drought and salinity tolerance." This five-year study began in 1998. |

USGA Summary Points: | Developed herbicide-resistant commercial cultivar in cooperation with Scotts and Monsanto. Transgenic lines with bacterio-opsin or the PR5K genes delayed development of dollar spot for 2 to 6 weeks. Produced transgenic plants with the barley HVA-1 gene that increases potential drought and salinity tolerance. |
