| Abstract/Contents: | "Tall fescue is a very popular grass for lawn areas in northern Arkansas and throughout the transition zone. Identifying adapted cultivars for 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 tall fescue cultivar trial, containing 113 entries, of which 30 were commercially available cultivars, was planted in the fall of 2006 at Fayetteville, Arkansas. During establishment in the fall of 2006 and across the 2007 growing season, cultivars were rated for establishment vigor, overall turf quality, and incidence of brown patch and Pythium blight. The cultivars that consistently rated high for turfgrass quality included Bullseye, Z-2000, Plato, Aristotle, Van Gogh, Turbo, Biltmore, Tulsa III, Speedway and RK-1, while the cultivars with the worst overall quality throughout 2007 were Silverado and Ky-31. There were significant differences among cultivars in brown patch severity during a disease outbreak in early August 2007." |
