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 cultivar of greens-type Poa annua." Reviews the progress and initial results for the following aspects of the study: germplasm collection and evaluation, regional testing, seed production, genetic identification, low-temperature tolerance assessment, survival of a freeze-thaw cycle, heat tolerance, and ice cover survival.
