Abstract/Contents: "Twenty seven St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum [Walter] Kuntze) cultivars were planted in College Station, Texas on 15 August, 1996. No plots sustained extensive damage from cold weather in 1998, but Floratam suffered more winterkill than S 6-89 175, Winchester, MM 203, or S 80-47. There were no statistical differences between any genotypes in rate of spring greenup in 1998. For the year, NCSA 21, TX 8208, Floratam, S 6-89-194, S 6-89-174, and S 6-89-196 were rated lower in quality than the rest of the genotypes. S 6-89-156, S 6-89-194, CSR, S 89-14, S 6-89-175, S 6-89-174, FX 10, MM 1, and S 6-89-70 were rated in the top statistical group for turf density on all 3 rating dates and overall. The plots were rated for resistance to brownpatch (Rhizoctonia solani ) and gray leaf spot (Pyricularia grisea ) in late September. Ratings for most genotypes were statisticaly similar, except that Floratam sustained more damage from brownpatch than S 89-6-196, MM 203, TX 8208, Levi, S 89-6-174, and CSR. There were no significant differences between genotypes in gray leaf spot incidence in 1998."
