Abstract/Contents: | "Turf managers in the cool temperate and transitional climatic regions of the United States such as New Jersey are increasingly establishing tall fescue (Schedonorous arundinaceus [Schreb.] Dumort.) on high traffic turf surfaces such as sports fields. The seasonal traffic tolerance (2014-2017) and non-trafficked turf quality (2013-2017) of tall fescue entries comprising the 2012 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) Tall Fescue Test were assessed in North Brunswick, NJ. Turf professionals frequently request research-based recommendations for turfgrass cultivars for both trafficked and non-trafficked sites. Traffic tolerance, turfgrass quality, and susceptibility to brown patch disease (caused by Rhizoctonia solani) are important selection criteria for tall fescue cultivars. A new Cooperative Extension Fact Sheet summarizing field trial results at Rutgers University and other trial locations in the northeast and transition zone is being developed to aid in the selection process. Information concerning purchasing seed, establishing tall fescue turf, and maintenance of tall fescue will be included in the Fact Sheet. Entries with the best average traffic tolerance during spring, summer, or autumn in North Brunswick, NJ, best average non-trafficked turf quality in North Brunswick, NJ during 2013 to 2017 and least brown patch disease across eight NTEP trial locations (2015-2016) will be tabularized and marked with an 'X'. Turf managers will be able to visually associate a greater quantity of 'X' marks across these selection criteria with better performing cultivars. Entries that ranked as best for traffic tolerance during spring, summer, and autumn in North Brunswick, NJ (2014-2017), best average non-trafficked turf quality in North Brunswick, NJ (2013-2017) and least brown patch disease across eight NTEP trial locations (2015-2016) were Regenerate, Raptor III, 4th Millennium SRP, F711, B23, Hemi, and Technique." |
