Abstract/Contents: | "Bermudagrass continues to be the prevailing turfgrass species used in Arkansas for golf courses, sports fields, home lawns and utility turf situations. 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 bermudagrass cultivar trial was planted in the summer of 2007 at Fayetteville, Ark. This trial was maintained under typical lawn conditions and data on spring green-up, overall quality, leaf color, leaf texture, and seed head formation were collected from summer 2007 and 2008. Average turf quality across months for the year was highest for OKC-1119, OKC-1134, PSG-9Y20, Tifgreen, Quickstand, RAD-CD1, GN-1, Premier, and SWI-1113. Turf quality for the year was least for PSG-91215, PSG-9BAN, PSG-94524, Sunsport, and Numex Sahara. Future evaluations over the next four years will provide a more complete picture of cultivars that perform best under these management and climate conditions." |
