USGA Summary Points:Established cold hardiness rankings for commerical turf bermudagrass varieties. Isolated and sequenced two genes, CynCht1, CynCht2, coding for class II chitinase proteins. Established that CynCHT1 is expressed in response to cold acclimating temperatures, drought, and abscisic acid and at greater levels in freeze-tolerant bermudagrass plants than in freeze-susceptible plants. Overexpression of the CynCHT1 gene in transformed Arabidopsis thaliana is currently being studied to determine the effects on freeze tolerance.
