Zoysia breeding
Dr Ambika Chandra (@ChandraAmbika), Associate Professor of Turfgrass Breeding and Genetics at Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center Dallas, TX, posted this photo on Twitter with the comment: "When you see something that takes your breath away!" It is the dedicated efforts of plant breeders like Dr. Chandra who deliver the fundamental genetic improvements that launch the turfgrass industry into the future. This experimental variety might not make it to commercialization, but there is something dramatic illustrated in this image that is difficult to ignore.
