Forage gramineous grasses are the most important component of the hay lands and pasture agroecosystems. To increase the efficiency of grass breeding the complex evaluation of the initial plant material is necessary, including an application of the current DNA technologies. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of SCoT markers for PCR-analysis of interspecies and intervarietal genetic variations of Russian fescue (Festuca) and festulolium (× Festulolium F.
