Performance Test - 1988 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program Bermudagrass Trials

Abstract

Bermudagrass germplasm was evaluated for turfgrass color, quality, chlorosis symptoms, leaf texture and percent plot ground cover, in order to assess turf adaptation under desert conditions. Both experimental materials and commercially available germplasm were different for these traits during 1988, which was the second year's evaluation of a 5-year-long national trial for turf-type bermudagrass.
