| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted "to evaluate Kentucky Bluegrass (Apollo), tall fescue (Dynasty) and two cultivars of hybrid bluegrasss (Thermal Blue and Dura Blue) for establishment rates after fall seeding; visual quality and growth characteristics of canopies; and drought resistance under different irrigation regimes and deficits in the transition zone." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that, "two irrigation treatments and a control, replicated three times each, were applied to whole plots." Reports that "establishment rate was most rapid in tall fescue, which was at 90% cover by [December] 17, 2002, and reched 100% by May 7, 2003." Concludes that "tall fescue may be better suited than hybrid bluegrasses in areas of the transition zone where soils are deep, especially if drought resistance is a priority." |
