The hybrids are currently being evaluated for low-input turf potential. Since they are derived from hand-harvested seed from first-generation hybrids located in field nurseries their exact genetic origin is unknown. This experiment was conducted to determine if there are still genetic relationships among the advanced generation hybrids and some of the Texas and Kentucky parents in their pedigrees. Four Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) primer combinations resolved on 6% nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels resulted in 179 polymorphic bands that were scored to create a genetic similarity matrix and dendrogram based on Jaccard’s coefficient. The clustering of the advanced generation hybrids was generally in agreement with what would be expected based on their pedigrees and indicated it was more likely to select a fertile hybrid from an advanced generation, rather than the F1 generation.展开更多

Embryogenic calli were transformed with plamids pDM803 and pBY520 by microprojectile bombardment. Fourty-two transgenic lines had been obtained. The highest efficiency of transformation reached to 3.7% for cv. Md, 2.8% for cv. Gm, and 5 % for cv. Bd. The micro nutriment of Cupric had significant effect on transformation. The embryogenic callus cultured in dim-light condition had higher transformation efficiency than the green callus cultured in light condition for one month before transformation. The selective regime and selective pressure on the putative transgenic plants were important for obtaining the desire number of transgenic plants. It also affected the copy number of integrated genes in the genomic DNA of transgenic plants.展开更多

The amplified products were positive recon identified by using procedures of recovery, connection, transformation and enzyme separation. The length of cloned gene sequence was 324 bp, identity reached 79.27% with Barley HVA1 gene that meaned the cloned gene sequence was the partial HVA1 gene of Poapratensis.展开更多

Mature seeds were used as explants for callus initiation. Callus induction and proliferation efficiencies were investigated on NB, modified MS (MMS) and MS media, supplemented with 2.0 mg·L^-1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The MMS medium performed best. Based on the MMS medium, direct and indirect callus induction effects of bluegrass from mature seeds were compared at the range of 1-5 mg·L^-1 2,4-D contained in the medium. Under the direct callus induction method, the most suitable 2,4-D concentrations varied among cultivars. Under the indirect callus induction method, a significantly high callus induction frequency (93.33%-98.33%) was obtained and there were barely any statistically sig- nificant differences among the tested genetically diverse cultivars. Somatic embryos were promoted on the MMS medium supple- mented with 3 mg·L^-1 2,4-D, 0.1 mg·L^-1 kinetin and 0.8 mg·L^-1 CuSO4. Embryogenetic calli developed into plantlets on the MMS medium containing different concentrations of thidiazuron (TDZ), and the differentiation frequencies varied in the range from 20.15% to 77.65%. The 0.25 mg·L^-1 TDZ was generally the most suitable concentration for the tested cultivars.展开更多

[Method] Potted Poa crymophila cv. Qinghai plants were regularly applied with liquid mineral mixed fertilizers, and samples were collected for analysis and detection. [Result] After the regular spraying of liquid mineral mixed fertilizers, the mineral elements in potted P. crymophila and its soil reduced ( P 〈0.05), but the accumulation of corresponding mineral elements of P. crymophila in the control group was increased due to the "Starvation Effect", which was one of the endogenetic forces driving the increase in the accumulation of mineral elements. [Conclusion] This study is of great significance for the study of the accumulation of mineral elements in degraded grassland plants and its dynamic mechanism, as well as testing the hypothesis of the Starvation Effect of mineral elements. In addition, it also provides scientific bases and technical support for the restoration and remediation of degraded grassland and the development of ecological livestock husbandry.展开更多
