Abstract
Investigations on Turf Properties of Some Grasses Grown for Turfgrass and Erosion Control Purposes Individual Quality Measures
This study was conducted in Tokat ecological conditions during October 1996-November 1999 period. Seventeen cool season grass cultivars of Agrostis, Lolium, Poa, Festuca, Agropyron, Dactylisand Bromusgenera were studied to determine their turf properties. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with four replications. In this study, some characteristics such as plant height, color properties, forms of plant and root growth were studied. Statistical analysis indicated that there were significant differences for all characteristics studied. Most of the cultivars were suitable as turfgrass based on the agronomichal and vegetational criteria.
