Abstract/Contents:Profiles 'Alpha' and 'T-1' cultivars of creeping bentgrass. States that "one objective in breeding these cultivars was to compete more effectively with annual bluegrass under golf conditions." Details the origins of the cultivars, stating that originate from "selections of segregated patches from old putting greens in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, North Carolina, and South Carolina" and "selections of low growing plants from a herbicide-damaged Foundation field of 'Putter' creeping bentgrass...in Oregon's Willamette Valley." Reports that "in North American university trials, 'Alpha' and 'T-1' performed well across various geographies and management regimes and showed improved resistance to annual bluegrass encroachment under tee or fairway mowing heights (1 to 2 cm [centimeters]), particularly in Indiana and Wisconsin." Briefly discusses the availability of the cultivars, stating that "seed of 'Alpha' and 'T-1' is produced and Breeder seed is maintained by Simplot."
