| Abstract/Contents: | "Limited water availability is a major concern in many regions of Mediterranean Europe. Mostly part C₃ cool-season turfgrasses have been used which unfortunately have a higher water use rate than for the C₄ warm-season species. The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the adaptation of vegetatively propagated versus seeded cultivars of both Cynodon and Zoysia species for the Mediterranean region. There were 11 seeded and 5 vegetatively cultivars of Zoysia. All were maintained under cultural conditions representative of fairways and sports fields, including a 13 mm cutting height, mowed 2 to 3 times per week. After 4 years of assesments at the experimental site near Rome, Italy, the results reveal that the vegetative propagated cultivars have performed superior to the seeded cultivars in terms of turfgrass quality, shoot density, and leaf blade width. The green-live canopy biomass and root biomass assessments revealed no specific differentials between the two groups of cultivars for either species." |
