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 2008 at the Arkansas Agricultural Research and Extension Center in Fayetteville, Ark. The trial was maintained at a mowing height of 0.200" and an application rate of 0.5 lb N/1000 ft2 per growing month during establishment. Data on turfgrass establishment, including visual estimates of germination vigor and digital image analysis measurements of green coverage, were collected. On average, the creeping bentgrass cultivars had higher green turf coverage compared to the velvet bentgrass cultivars. There were significant differences among cultivars with regard to establishment vigor." |
