Abstract/Contents:Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Isolate, identify, and characterize chitinases and glucanases and their genes that have high anti-SDS [spring dead spot] activity. 2. Develop an efficient protocol to transform (genetically engineer) bermduagrass [bermudagrass]. 3. Transform and characterize bermdagrass [bermudagrass] with the antifungal chitinase and/or glucanase genes directed against the spring dead spot causal organism." Results indicate that "basic chitinasese [chitinase] may have a role in disease resistance in bermuda crown tissues." This five-year study began in 1998.
