| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses research concerning which turfgrass varieties perform most effectively in the three regions of North Carolina. States that cultivars to be tested are tall fescue (which will be tested at North Carolina State University), creeping bentgrass, centipedegrass, St. Augustinegrass, bermudagrass, fine fescue, Kentucky bluegrass and zoysiagrass; they will be tested in various places, such as roadsides and putting greens. Concludes that new cultivars developed from past studies displayed better turfgrass traits than did the more commonly used Penncross cultivars, including increased shoot density, and greater disease resistance, although they do display some negative traits, such as reduced lateral spread due to and upright growth habit and greater susceptibility to dollar spot. |
