Abstract/Contents:"For new turfgrass cultivars to be successful in the marketplace, cultivars must not only possess characteristics desired by the end user but also have those preferred by the sod producer. The objectives of this study are 1) to investigate different sod production characteristics of advanced bermudagrass lines that show improved drought resistance and cold tolerance to the sod industry standard 'Tifway' and 2) to examine the relationship between those production characteristics. Production characteristics measured include: sod handling quality (SHQ), sod tensile strength (STS), vertical growth (VG), and underground growth characteristics. Results showed a strong, positive correlation (r = 0.89) between SHQ and STS. Other production characteristics moderately correlated or did not correlate at all. The correlations of some of these production characteristics show promise of commercializing grasses that will change the sod industry for the better."
