Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Assemble and evaluate Cynodon germplasm accessions for important descriptors. Incorporate descripter information and accessions into the National Plant Germplasm System. Maintain a working collection of germplasm accessions with breeding value and utilize in turf bermudagrass breeding program. 2. Improve bermudagrass breeding populations for seed production potential, cold tolerance, and other traits conditioning turf performance. 3. Identify bermudagrass parental plants with superior combining ability for use in producing inter- and intra-specific F1 hybrid." States that "recurrent selection (RS) for turf performance traits was continued in broad genetic base C. dactylon populations in 1998-99. RS in these populations has increased turf quality, transition zone adaptation, and seed production potential." Discusses the quality of varieties discovered thus far. This five-year study began in 1998. |
