Abstract/Contents:Describes a study to "examine whether the new seeded cultivars of bermudagrass have a suitable shoot density, color/quality and rate of coverage for use on golf courses." Results include "during June establishment in 2001, all of the seeded cultivars emerged at the same time and had complete coverage within six weeks of planting" and "color and quality were also recorded during the summer of 2002 with similar results to shoot density with Tifway being superior, followed closely by Princess and then the rest of the seeded cultivars." Concludes that "some seeded cultivars establish much quicker than sprigged Tifway," "slower emerging and/or covering cultivars such as Yukon, Guymon and Tifway are susceptible to heavy weed pressure," and "Blackjack suffered the greatest amount of winterkill and Princess the least among all seeded cultivars. Overall, Tifway suffered the least winterkill."
