Abstract/Contents:"In many golf courses of southeast Spain, irrigation water quality is low due to high quality water use restriction and/or seawater intrusion, which make good quality turfgrass difficult to achieve. Fairways in this area are mainly sown with bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) and seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum SW.) due to their good performance under both, lack and low quality of water. These species need to be overseeded with C3 species like Lolium perenne L. or Poa trivialis L. at the beginning of autumn, because C4 species get dormant and lose green colour. Superintendents of these golf courses are always concerning about germination rates of overseeded species as they use low quality irrigation water to make them germinate. Samples of irrigation water from 9 different golf courses were collected for being used in germination experiments in laboratory conditions. 100 seeds of 4 L. perenne varieties ('Belida', 'Paragon GLR', 'Pizzazz' and 'T3') and one P. trivialis variety ('Solo') were placed in Petri dishes, 4 times replicated and in an environmental controlled chamber. All water samples were tested for the 5 varieties and it was concluded that germination rate and days for germination for L. perenne varieties were good, ranging from 75 to 97% and 5 to 7 days respectively and for the P. trivialis variety ranged from 89 to 95% and 7 days for germination. Additionally, a salinity germination test was conducted with 2 of the L. perenne varieties ('Paragon GLR' and 'Pizzazz') and the mentioned P. trivialis variety, using 10 different levels of salinity (1 to 19 dS.m-1) concluding that L. perenne varieties were less sensible to salinity (acceptable germination rate till 15 dS.m-1 and acceptable time for germination till 11 dS.m-1) than the P. trivialis variety (acceptable germination rate till 9 dS.m-1 and acceptable time for germination till 7 dS.m-1). These last results are well correlated with the 9 golf course irrigation water previous results."
