Abstract/Contents: | "This study was conducted to examine the performance of new bent cultivars for golf course greens in the warm, humid climate of Atlanta, Georgia, USA. A 0.08 hectare golf green was built according to USGA specifications in a low area that was situated to restrict air movement. The study had 27 bent entries (cultivars) and six blends of some entries. The area was maintained following routine golf course practices. Nine entries had substantially faster coverage rates than the regional standard, Penncross. The high temperatures of 1995 elicited strong differential responses amongst the entries. Turf quality of Penncross declined 45% during that summer, while six entries (A 93A6, A-1, Crenshaw, Crenshaw + Cato, G-2, and G-6) declined less than 26%. Two years after establishment, the number of entries within the moderate range of soil hydrophobicity had increased from eight to eighteen. This suggests that soil hydrophobicity increases with time and the rate of change is related to cultivar. A 93A5, A 93A6, A-1, and Bar WS 42102 had the most soil hydrophobicity while Procup, Tendenz, A-1 had the least. In 1996, plots were inoculated with brown patch (Rhizoctonia solani). Pennlinks, CBL, Procup, MSUEB, Penncross and ISI 89140 had disease levels of more than 94%. L-93 was more resistant with only 28.5% infestation, while all other cultivars had infestations between 51% and 94%." |
