| Abstract/Contents: | "Creeping bentgrass continues to be the prevailing turfgrass species used for golf course putting greens throughout northern and central Arkansas. Identifying cultivars that are well-adapted to the region remains a central focus of the University of Arkansas turfgrass research program. The National Turfgrass Evaluation Program is the predominant means by which cultivars are tested throughout North America. A Bentgrass cultivar trial, including selections of creeping and velvet Bentgrass was planted in the fall of 2003 at the University of Arkansas Research and Extension Center (Fayetteville, Ark.). The trial was maintained under golf course putting green conditions and data on turfgrass quality, color, density, dollar spot and brown patch incidence, and recovery from core aerification were collected. On average, the velvet Bentgrass cultivars were rated low in turf quality due to their lack of heat tolerance. Among the creeping Bentgrass entries, the cultivars that consistently had the best turf quality through the trial were, 007, Tyee, Shark, Authority, Penn A-1, Declaration, and MacKenzie. There were significant differences among cultivars with regard to turf color, density, dollar spot, brown patch, and recovery from aerification." |
