Abstract/Contents:"Research Accomplished 1] Development of a new technique for growth and development evaluation of multiple germ plasm entries grown under salt stress conditions. 2] Reception and increase of 75 buffalograsses, 40 St. Augustinegrasses, 3 Paspalums, and 65 zoysiagrasses. Current Research 1] Vegetative material of 29 buffalograss and 37 St. Augustinegrass germ plasm are being evaluated for salt resistance. 2] Methods for evaluating zoysiagrass vegetative material are currently being investigated. Research Planned 1985/1986 1] Complete evaluation of "St. Augustinegrass germ plasm [Feb. 1986]. 2] Complete initial evaluation of buffalograss germ plasm [May, 1986]. 3] Continue accumulation of buffalograss germ plasm and expand cooperation with the University of Nebraska program. 4] Initiate zoysiagrass evaluation [January, 1986]. 5] Begin accumulation of bentgrass and bermudagrass germ plasm and expand cooperation with New Mexico State University and Oklahoma State University programs. 6]Investigate methods for further greenhouse and field evaluations on germ plasm which exhibited reasonable salt resistance."
