Quantitative Trait Loci Associated with Drought Tolerance in Creeping Bentgrass

Improvement in the drought tolerance of the cool‐season perennial grass species creeping bentgrass ( Agrostis stolonifera L.) has significant value within the turfgrass industry. Understanding genomic regions associated with quantitative trait loci (QTL) such as drought tolerance will allow for advancement of breeding strategies to identify creeping bentgrass germplasm with improved abiotic stress tolerance. A multiyear and multienvironment...
