摘要:
The present invention is directed toward Kentucky bluegrass varieties containing mutant allele BARHGTMA1 that exhibit resistance to diseases, pests and traffic. Specifically, the Kentucky bluegrass variety of the present invention, ‘Barvette’, exhibits the unique and surprising combination of resistance to Summer Patch caused by the fungus Magnaporthe poae, traffic tolerance and recovery, increased billbug and white grub tolerance, stem rust resistance and increased tolerance to summer stresses. The invention relates to seeds, plants and plant parts of Kentucky bluegrass variety ‘Barvette’, and also to progeny of Kentucky bluegrass variety ‘Barvette’ and to methods for producing other Kentucky bluegrass plants or plant parts from ‘Barvette’, and to the plants and parts derived from use of those methods. The invention further relates to hybrid Kentucky bluegrass seeds, plants, and plant parts produced by crossing ‘Barvette’ with another Kentucky bluegrass variety, species of Poa, or plant genus.
