Abstract/Contents:Discusses the use of Poa annua as a putting surface and not as an "invasive weed" to be destroyed. Contrasts the characteristics of different forms of Poa annua. Contrasts annual bluegrass plants and perennial bluegrass plants. Profiles Penn State University's breeding program. Discusses biotic and abiotic stresses that could facilitate damage to the uniformity of the greens. Describes the obstacles that prevent Poa annua seed from becoming commercialized.
