Reduction of ploidy level by androgenesis in intergeneric Lolium-Festuca hybrids for turf grass breeding

2005-01-01

Abstract excerpt

To widen the gene pool of cool season turfgrasses, intergeneric tetraploid hybrids of Festuca pratensis Hudson with Lolium perenne L. and L. multiflorum Lam. are being screened for desirable turf characteristics. Anther culture was used to reduce their ploidy level to diploid. Of the 37 557 anthers cultured, 1986 green and 904 albino plantlets were regenerated with large differences in androgenic responses among t...
