Generation and Characterization of a Sexual Tetraploid Genotype of Seashore Paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) for Novel Breeding Strategies
Breeding Paspalum vaginatum has been limited to the diploid germplasm; however there is a rich diversity in closely related species that may be utilized. The species is diploid and outcrossing due to self-incompatibility. This research aimed to generate a chromosome-doubled tetraploid and evaluate the effects of chromo...
