본 실험은 한국잔디 신품종 '세녹'(특허출원:10-2003-0072018) 개발에 관한 것이다. 한국에서 수집한 유전자원 중 갯잔디와 금잔디간에 인공교배를 수행해서 F1계통을 얻었다. 작성한 F1계통을 포장상태에서 방임수분을 통해 변이확대를 하였으며, 이들 방임수분 후대에서 선발한 것이 '세녹'이다. '세녹'은 유전적으로 잔디의 녹색도가 진하며, 낮게 자라는 특성이 있고 품질이 우수하며 잎의 강직성이 높다. 엽폭이 3.1mm로 중엽형이며, 초장이 14cm로 낮고, 잎각도가 67.3도로 넓다. 지면으로부터 최하위 엽의 잎 몸 기부까지의 길이가 2cm로 낮은 형태적 특성을 갖고 있어 낮은 잔디깍기에 적응할 수 있는 영양번식형 잔디이다. 또한 RAPD 밴드 특성에서 한국잔디 신품종 세녹(Senock)이 특이 밴드를 갖고있어 식별성이 높다.

We were investigated turf color and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to affect greenup promotion of 38 cultivar in 5 species for spring season, most popularly used in Korea golf courses. Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb), creeping bentrgass (Agrostis palustris Huds), perennial ryegrass (Lolium parenne L.) and zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) cultivar had higher leaf color for greenup promotion in Ami, Amx and Oligo than Con treatment and there were also significantly difference among treatments. Turfgrass NDVI also showed significant difference among cultivars in species. Spray of Ami, Amx and Oligo has the higher value of turf NDVI than Con. Based on our results, green up fast during spring season may affected much more with application of Ami, Amx and Oligo than Con.

This study was performed to study characteristics of new zoysiagarass cultivar 'Green Ever' (Plant Variety Protection Application no. 2014 - 02). 'Green Ever' was developed by selection breeding among 100 native zoysiagrasses collected in South Korea. 'Green Ever' showed specific bands (1.48 kb with OPC14 and 1.05 kb with OPD5) which were distinct from 'Anyang Joonggi' or 'Dongrae Koryogi' in RAPD analysis. 'Green Ever' was classified as Z. matrella in morphological evaluations including plant height ($6.8{\pm}0.5cm$), leaf width ($2.0{\pm}0.1mm$), height of lowest leaf ($1.9{\pm}0.1cm$) and seed length ($3.0{\pm}0.1mm$), which was similar with morphological characteristics of 'Dongrae Koryogi'. Turf quality, shoot density and chlorophyll content of 'Green Ever' were higher than them of 'Anyang Joonggi' and 'Dongrae Koryogi' under intensive management such as fairway on golf course, especially shoot densities of 'Green Ever' were excellent higher than 'Anyang Joonggi' and 'Dongrae Koryogi' during experimental periods. It could be extensively used in fairway, teeing ground of golf courses and landscape garden after further study about various environmental adaptabilities such as winter kill, wear tolerance etc.

This study was carried out to assess the present condition of domestic and foreign patented technologies in turfsrass cultivar area. Patented technologies about turfsrass were analyzed by web site(www.kipris.or.kr) from 1948 to 2005. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Number of patents on turfgrass fertilizer(866) was more than the other patents on turfgrass. 2. Total number of Japan's patents on turfgrass was 1,565. This is more than America's. The foreign patents are mostly on cultivar, sod, seed, disease, construction, and management. 3. Number of patents from company(2,328) was the most and the others are private individuals, research institutes, university professors. However commercialization rate of patants was low. 4. Turfgrass cultivars patented in Korea are 'Konwoo', 'Senock' 'Anyanjungji', etc., and in foreign countries 'Zenith', 'Miyako', etc. Among them 'Zenith', 'Miyako' and 'Konhee' were commercialized.

Since the 1990s, the application of Kentucky bluegrass cultivars has increased in newly-constructed Korean golf courses as opposed to the previously-used zoysiagrass. However, there have been few reports studying the selection and characterization of these Kentucky bluegrass cultivars under Korean weather conditions. A total of 12 Kentucky bluegrass cultivars were tested for their adaptability in environmental stresses during summer conditions in Korea in order to select the best Kentucky bluegrass cultivars for use in Korean golf courses. This study found that two Kentucky bluegrass cultivars ('Midnight' and 'Bluestone') maintained their green throughout the summer season and had a high degree of root density, as compared to the other cultivars tested. These two cultivars also had a good rate of coverage in the early growth period. These characteristics make them suitable for application on sports fields and golf courses, which receive many divots and the frequent replacement of turfgrass sod caused by both biotic and abiotic stress. Two other cultivars, the 'Ginney' and 'Nuglade', also displayed good visual quality and high rate of coverage under summer conditions. In conclusion, the 'Midnight' and 'Bluestone' cultivars performed well in areas including the maintenance of their green color, the number of roots and the rate of coverage during the summer months. These characteristics are necessary for golf courses sports fields, which receive many divots and requirethe frequent replacement of turfgrass. further research on a range of Kentucky bluegrass cultivars, including a sensitivity test for many pathogens and recovery rates from a variety of stresses, is required in the near future.

In order to optimize tissue culture conditions for genetic transformation of zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Stued.), the effect of plant growth regulators and culture medium supplements on embryogenic callus induction from mature seeds of a cultivar 'Zenith' were investigated. The optimal concentration and treatment period of NaOCl is 30% (v/v) for 60 minutes. Cultivation of mature seed on the callus Induction medium containing 3 mg/L 2,4-D and 3 mg/L dicamba showed 17.5% of embryogenic callus formation frequency. Supplementation of 1 g/L casein hydrolysate and 500 mg/L L-proline improved frequency of embryogenic callus induction. Audition of the medium with 5 mg/L $AgNO_3$ and 20 mg/L cysteine enhanced frequencies of embryogenic callus induction. Efficient callus induction system established in this study will be useful for molecular breeding of Boysiagrass through genetic transformation.
