Abstract/Contents:Discusses a 3-year study, conducted on a 2-year old stand of Unique Kentucky bluegrass (KB) growing on a sand based root zone at the Iowa State University Horitculture Research Farm, "to determine turfgrass cover and specie [species] dominance when an established stand of KB [Kentucky bluegrass] is overseeded with KB, PR [perennial ryegrass], and SB [supina bluegrass] in the presence of traffic." Details the methods used in the study, explaining that "two similar but independent trials were established on a mature stand of KB that was routinely overseed with KB, PR, and SB in the presence of simulated traffic...Evaluation of percent turf cover was used to evaluate specie [species] performance during the traffic and recovery periods." Reports the results, stating that "perennial ryegrass and supina bluegrass over seeding had the greatest turf cover at the end of the...study compared to Kentucky bluegrass."
