Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study to "determine the broad and narrow sense heritabilities of salt gland density in zoysiagrass. Zoysiagrass is the ideal model system to determine salt gland heritability, as salt gland densities and relative salt tolerances of a large number of genotypes have already been determined. As salt gland density had 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 these breeding programs as well." States that "fifteen zoysiagrass varieties are being examined for salinity tolerance and salt gland density." This three-year study began in 1998. |
