Abstract/Contents:Discusses six perennial ryegrass evaluation trials "established between 2004 and 2007. Five of the tests were seeded at the Plant Biology and Pahtology Research and Extension Farm in Adelphia, [New Jersey], and one test was seeded at the Rutgers Horticultural Research Farm in North Brunswick, [New Jersey]. Details the methods and procedures used during the evaluation, stating that "all tests were arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications, and plots had a 6-inch unseeded border to limit contamination." Reports that "all tests were rated throughout the growing season for visual turf quality (..., overall appearance, turf color, uniformity, density, mowing quality, reduced rate of vertical growth, leaf texture, and damage due to insects and diseases). Other characteristics such as establishment, spring green-up, color, shoot density, leaf texture, and disease were rated when significant differences were evident." Lists diseases that can affect perennial ryegrass, including "gray leaf spot (caused by Pyricularia grisea), red thread (caused by Laetisaria fuciformis), dollar spot (caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa), brown patch (caused by Rhizoctonia solani), and crown rust (caused by Puccinia coronata)."
