| Abstract/Contents: | Three trials of Kentucky bluegrass (84 different cultivars) have been established. The first trial is a low maintenance study that received 1 lb N/1000 ft2 and supplemental irrigation as needed. The third trial is a high fertility (4 lb N/1000 ft2) and no irrigation. Data has been taken in the low and high maintenance trails for the past several seasons. The data is summarized in the annual Iowa Turfgrass Research Report. Data from the low-maintenance study were used to develop a summer dormancy investigation to study the mechanisms of summer-stress survival. Five cultivars were picked that consistently have been rated near the top, or best performing, in the low-maintenance study. These are K3-162, Kenblue, Vantage, S.D. Common, and S-21. Conversely, 5 cultivars were picked that consistently have been rated near the bottom in the Kentucky bluegrass low-maintenance trial. These are Bonnieblue, A-20, Columbia, Lovegreen, and I-13. These 10 cultivars will be further studies for morphological differences concerning post summer dormancy active lateral buds, reproductive tillers, rooting depth, and carbohydrate reserve content. |
