Abstract/Contents: | Presents the results of a study examining "the main differences normally attributd to the annual and perennial types [of annual bluegrass (Poa annua)]." Notes that "the perennial biotype was more hardy, required a greater concentration of endothall to kill, tended to develop in regularly irrigated areas and was more stress tolaerant." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "to determine if the apparent lack of drought stress tolerance on the 'bad' #3 fairway was due to a reduced capacity to produce a good root system, the rate and amount of adventitious root formation of the annual bluegrass samples was evaluated." Reports that "there was no difference...in the ability of annual bluegrass plants from #3 and #18 fairways to produce adventitious roots nor in the mean length of roots produced." |
