| Abstract/Contents: | Describes five tall fescue trials; one established at North Brunswick, New Jersey, and the other four at Adelphia, New Jersey. States that the "tests were maintained at different levels of fertility, mowing height, and moisture stress" and were rated for overall appearance, including "turf color, density, texture, uniformity, growth habit, and freedom from disease or insect damage." Results include that "most of the improved, turf-type tall fescues tended to resume active growth later in the spring than the more common types." Concludes that "in addition to good heat and drought tolerance, many tall fescue varieties contain a fungal endophyte that may increase resistance to certain insects and improve performance during periods of stress." |
