engineered genetic incompatibility

By Jonathan Cors

Several years ago a previous member of our lab, Garett Heineck, wrote an article explaining Round-up Ready Kentucky bluegrass, which was the first release of a turfgrass that was genetically modified to have glyphosate herbicide resistance. The article does a great job explaining genetically modified turfgrass, as well as its uses, issues, and why it’s largely not currently sold.
