The present disclosure provides glufosinate-tolerant turfgrasses (e.g., Kentucky bluegrass), methods of making glufosinate-tolerant turfgrasses, and methods of controlling weeds in a field comprising glufosinate-tolerant turfgrasses by treating the field with an effective amount of an herbicide comprising glufosinate.

Glufosinate resistance cassettes and plants comprising the same

The invention provides glyphosate-tolerant transgenic turfgrass plants, plant material, and propagules that have a specific transformation event. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the event.

Plants comprising herbicide-resistant event sequences, plant materials, and methods for detection thereof

The invention provides for an expression cassette comprising a gibberellic acid 2-oxidase gene, and turfgrass plants comprising said cassette.

Plants comprising a gibberellic acid 2-oxidase gene expression cassette

The invention provides glyphosate tolerant transgenic turfgrass plants, plant material, and seeds that have a specific transformation event. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the event. The invention also provides sequences for a variant EPSPS gene and a GAO2X gene, cassettes, and plants comprising the variant EPSPS gene and a GAO2X gene.

Plants comprising events PP009-401, PP009-415, and PP009-469, compositions, sequences, and methods for detection thereof

The present invention provides a bentgrass ASR-368 plant and seed. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the bentgrass ASR-368 based on a DNA sequence and the use of this DNA sequence as a molecular marker in a DNA detection method.

Bentgrass event ASR-368 and compositions and methods for detection thereof

Transgenic monocotyledonous plants are produced by inserting a foreign genetic material directly into a node segment of a stem of a plant and thereafter subjecting the node segment to conditions sufficient to permit regeneration of the node segment into a plantlet. Preferably, the genetic material is inserted by biolistic transformation, Agrobacterium, or direct DNA uptake mediated by electroporation. The process is especially useful for producing transgenic ryegrasses, fescues and turfgrasses, such as St. Augustinegrass, creeping bentgrass, Kentucky bluegrass, and the like.
