Abstract/Contents:Reports on a study conducted at the University of Idaho to determine the seed productivity of Kentucky bluegrass based on the analysis of "30 agronomic and botanical components." Details the materials and methods used in the study, stating that path analysis and visual evaluation were used to determine related factors of seed productivity. Reports that "seed weight/panicle and seeds/panicle were most highly correlated (0.93 and 0.88) with seed yields...Other components were also successful yield predictors." Concludes that "the magnitude of some correlations varied among years, indicating high environment-year interactions."
