“…Fifteen elite OSU greens‐type experimental bermudagrass entries (11 × 1, 12 × 11, 12 × 17, 13 × 13, 14 × 10, 14 × 22, 1 × 10, 1 × 20, 3m3, 3 × 15, 63 × 18, 77 × 16, 7 × 19, 80 × 18, and 8 × 12) were genotyped together with four industry‐standard cultivars (Tifdwarf, TifEagle, Champion, and Mini Verde). Healthy leaf tissue was sampled from each of the 19 plants grown in a greenhouse at the OSU Agronomy Research Station, Stillwater, OK. DNA was isolated from fresh leaf tissue following a phenol‐chloroform extraction method with minor modifications (Fang et al, 2015; Nalini et al, 2004). Each DNA sample was quantified by a spectrophotometer (NanoDrop ND‐1000, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and diluted to 10 ng μL −1 for polymerase chain reaction.…”
