Abstract/Contents: | "A trial of 38 cultivars of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) demonstrated genetic differences to an infestation of bluegrass billbug. The correlation coefficient between injury ratings and billbug larval density in sod samples was r = 0.73. Thatch accumulation was not significantly correlated (r = 0.31) with billbug density." |
