| Title: | MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVING QUALITY AND CHARACTERISTICS OF GRASSES | |||||||||||
| Abstract: | The subject invention concerns materials and methods for improving grass quality and characteristics, including suppression or reduction of seedheads, increasing vegetative tillers per plant, increasing forage quality, and increasing resistance to abiotic stress conditions such as drought. In one embodiment, the grass is bahiagrass. Grass can be transformed with a nucleic acid that encodes a leucine zipper class I protein, for example an Arabidopsis ATHB16 protein, or a fragment, variant, or homolog thereof that has substantially the same activity as the ATHB16 protein. The nucleic acid can be provided in a construct that results in overexpression or constitutive expression of the protein. | |||||||||||
