| Abstract/Contents: | Presents the results of a project "conducted from September 2004 to July 2006, evaluating 31 grasses and blends at 12 golf courses" in overseeding bermudagrass fairways. Details methods and materials used during the project, discussing entries, trial locations, and data collection. Reports that, during the fall 2004-spring 2005 data collection period, "the perennial ryegrasses overall provided the best turfgrass quality. However, at most locations, there was little statistical difference among the entries" and during the fall 2005-spring 2006 collection period "at most locations, the perennial ryegrass entries or blends of perennial ryegrasses were the best performers." Also reports that "many perennial ryegrasses perform well in overseeding, and often there is no statistical difference among the entries...[and] the usefulness of Poa trivialis in overseeding fairways is questionable. It is slower to establish than perennial reygrass, and when Poa trivialis is weakened by heat or disease, it seems to disappear." Concludes that "the practice of overseeding bermudagrass fairways continues throughout the southern United States, but not without risk. Golf courses that subscribe to fairway overseeding must have clear goals and objectives and realistic expectations of the outcome. Success in overseeding needs to be carefully defined, considering expectations of the clientele tempered with a healthy dose of reality." |
