Abstract/Contents: | "Development of functional and persistent turfgrass cultivars adapted to natural environmental conditions will require an intense, systematic, multidisciplinary approach. The genotypes developed will be directed to a more conservative and often stressful environments. Assessment of species best suited for the natural environment will be closely associated with acquisition and evaluation of existing germ plasm resources. Primary consideration must be directed toward gaining a better understanding of the biological mechanisms associated with performance and survival under stress conditions. A team approach to systematic breeding programs must develop and utilize techniques which identify the genetics of important biological characteristics and which enhance the genetic diversity and integrity of the base population. Comprehensive turfgrass breeding efforts are discussed detailing the interdisciplinary approach to developing turfgrasses for use under natural environmental conditions." |
