Abstract/Contents:Discusses the need for a "wear-tolerant, stoloniferous turfgrass, able to maintain growth in cool to cold weather after typical turfgrasses have ceased growth" to be used on athletic fields. Looks at Poa supina as a possible solution to the need for such a turfgrass. Discusses its use and breeding in Germany, and relates current U.S. research objectives concerning the maintenance and characteristics of Poa supina. Also informs of the availability of P. supina seed and sod in North America as of 1996.
