Abstract/Contents:"Bermudagrass and zoysiagrass are two of the most commonly used turfgrass species on golf course fairways and tees in the southern U.S. However, there are few reports comparing commonly used cultivars of bermudagrass to commonly used cultivars of zoysiagrass. Because clipping yield and scalping tendency are important management characteristics of fairways and tees, research was performed on these characteristics among commonly used bermudagrass and zoysiagrass cultivars. Clipping yield and scalping tendency were evaluated on five cultivars of bermudagrass and seven cultivars of zoysiagrass. The cultivars producing the lowest amount of clippings were Diamond and Meyer zoysiagrass, while Tifsport and Tifway bermudagrass, and El Toro, Zenith, Zorro, and Palisades zoysiagrass had the highest amount of clippings. Patriot and Tifsport bermudagrass had the highest scalping tendency. These results will assist golf course managers in selecting cultivars of bermudagrass and zoysiagrass for golf course fairways or tees that produce few clippings and scalp infrequently."
