Abstract/Contents:Discusses entries of the 2005 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) Kentucky bluegrass trial, "established in September 2005, that were evaluated for wear tolerance and recovery during July through September 2007." Details the procedures and materials used during the trials, stating that "the test was conducted on a well-drained Nixon sandy loam at the Horticultural Research Farm II in North Brunswick, [New Jersey]. Individual plot size was 9 x 5 feet. Soil test results from April 2007 indicated that the soil pH was 6.0; soil phosophorus was 291 pounds per acre; and soil potassium was 214 pounds per acre." Summarizes the methods used in the tall fescue evaluation trial, and those used to test for "wear simulation on Kentucky bluegrass and traffic simulation on tall fescue." Presents the results of the study, highlighting "spring green-up; seedhead formation; resistance to wear, bruising and drought stress; and fullness of cover" for Kentucky bluegrass, and "establishment; color; and resistance to brown patch and traffic wear."
