Multi-omics insights into salinity tolerance in African bermudagrass.

Abstract excerpt

African bermudagrass (Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) is a key parent species used to produce interspecific hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon × C. transvaalensis). Due to the increasing use of non-potable water for landscape irrigation, salt stress has become a major concern in the turfgrass industry. While variation in salt tolerance is known within bermudagrass, the molecular basis of this trait is not...
