Abstract/Contents:Presents an ongoing study to evaluate Tifsport, Tifway 419, GN-1, Navy Blue, Quickstand, and Tifton 10 bermudagrass cultivars "so that golf course and athletic field superintendents can make informed decisions about which particular cultivar best suits their individual needs." Explains that "the cultivars were evaluated for their respective establishment rates during the grow-in phase." States that "the next phase of the project is to see how well each of the cultivars respond to being overseeded with perennial ryegrass in the fall." States that "in addition to the field experiments, there will also be greenhouse studies done in order to determine the relative cold tolerance and salinity tolerance of each of the six cultivars."
