Selection for freezing tolerance in St. Augustinegrass through somaclonal variation and germplasm evaluation
St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] is the least cold-hardy turfgrass species. Development of freezing-tolerant St. Augustinegrass cultivars would greatly benefit home owners in many southern states of the US. Towards this breeding goal, 7800 plants regenerated through tissue culture and 36 germplasm accessions were screened for improved freezing tolerance. Among the con...
متن کاملassessment of freezing tolerance in lentil genotypes (lens culinaris) by electrolyte leakage index
lentil (lens culinaris. medik) is one of the major cool season pulse crops which could suffer damage under severe cold. some physiological parameters such as electrolyte leakage (el) have been used to assess the response of crops to cold conditions. in order to evaluate the possibility of using the el index for assessing the freezing tolerance of lentil genotypes, a factorial experiment carried...
متن کاملFertilization of St. Augustinegrass And Environmental Implications
climate-controlled greenhouse at the G.C.Horn turf field laboratory at the University of Florida in Gainesville. Floratam St.Augustinegrass is being compared with a mix of ornamentals including canna, nandina, ligustrum and allamanda. Plant material is growing in 80-gallon plastic pots in an Arredondo fine sand. There are three fertilizer treatments (16-4-8 quick-release, 15-0-15 quick-release,...
متن کاملEvaluation of Biochemical and Physiological Responses of Seven Olive Cultivars in Relation to Freezing Tolerance
Abstract: Temperature is one of the most important factors limiting the production and distribution of olive. Different olive cultivars show diverse responses to low temperature and so, the selection of cold tolerant cultivars is the most effective method to avoid frost damages. The main purpose of this study was to compare freezing tolerance of seven olive cultivars and to investigate the rel...
