Abstract/Contents:Discusses overseeding bermudagrass with perennial ryegrass on athletic fields, stating that "although dormant bermudagrass can withstand considerable traffic, overseeding can improve resiliency and performance under intense use." Contains a report on a study conducted "to determine optimum perennial ryegrass seeding rates for overseeding bermudagrass athletic fields in the northern transition zone and to determine if multiple seeding events improved overall (PGR) [PRG, that is, perennial ryegrass] establishment compared to a single seeding event." Reports that "perennial ryegrass coverage rarely increased at seeding rates higher than 50 pounds/1000 ft2/year [pounds per 1000 feet squared per year] regardless of location, seeding strategy, or rating date."
