| Abstract/Contents: | "Two trials were made, mown at 25 mm (1 in.) and 13 mm (1/2 in.), with artificial wear treatments. The main purpose was to assess various "medium" grasses likely to be intermediate in wear tolerance between perennial ryegrass and the fine grasses red fescue and browntop bent. Annual meadow-grass and two cultivars of timothy were the most wear-tolerant medium grasses: two cultivars of smooth-stalked meadow-grass were intermediate: crested dogstail and rough-stalked meadow-grass were least wear-tolerant. In the trial mown at 25 mm, annual meadow-grass was not sown and no other medium grass gave marked benefits in range of 40 mixtures in which perennial ryegrass and fescue/bent were, for different reasons, the most important components. In the trial mown at 13 mm, containing 31 mixtures without ryegrass, annual meadow-grass was outstanding for wear-tolerance though objectionable as a sown component of mixtures; no other medium grass was an obvious choice for reinforcing fescue/bent, although on balance smooth-stalked meadow-grass seemed best for this purpose." |
