What’s bugging Nebraska: Insect Pests of Turfgrass
Lessons in Cold Tolerant Bermudagrass Adaptation in Nebraska
Summary
Cold Tolerant Bermudagrass Management in Nebraska
Thatch management is a must in cold-tolerant hybrid bermudagrass
Traffic areas and cultivar had significant statistical differences in shear testing
Cultivar only, type of overseeding, and traffic showed statistical differences in Clegg testing
Overseeded areas provided more coverage and NDVI green scale than non-overseeded areas
Further work is needed on long-term tolerance and management for cold-tolerant hybrid bermudagrasses in Nebraska
Results of 2025 Bermudagrass Applied Research
Abbreviations Key
O/S: Overseeding Type, KBG: Kentucky bluegrass, PRG: Perennial ryegrass, DS: Drop seeder, SS: Slit seeder, T: Traffic, NT: No Traffic
All tables sorted below are based on bermudagrass cultivar.
Lowest in Shear Testing
Cultivar | O/S Type | Rate O/S | Specific O/S Area | Type O/S | Location of O/S | Date | Rep. Area | T or NT | Average (N*M) |
Latitude 36 | KBG | 5 | 5 | DS | DS | 4-Aug-25 | 3 | T | 7.700 |
Tahoma 31 | PRG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 4-Aug-25 | 2 | T | 10.300 |
Ironcutter | KBG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 4-Aug-25 | 2 | T | 10.700 |
Highest in Shear Testing
Cultivar | O/S Type | Rate O/S | Specific O/S Area | Type O/S | Location of O/S | Date | Rep. Area | T or NT | Average (N*M) |
Ironcutter | PRG | 10 | 10 | DS | DS | 18-Aug-25 | 1 | NT | 18.900 |
Tahoma 31 | KBG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 24-Jul-25 | 1 | NT | 20.500 |
Latitude 36 | PRG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 24-Jul-25 | 1 | T | 20.700 |
When it comes to shear testing, Latitude 36 was the lowest and highest at different times of overseeding types, rates, and timing. Both occurred in traffic areas; in comparison, Tahoma 31 and Ironcutter were highest in shear testing with no traffic, but lower in some overseeding with traffic areas in the lowest shear testing.
Lowest in Clegg Testing
Cultivar | O/S Type | Rate O/S | Specific O/S Area | Type O/S | Location of O/S | Date | Rep. Area | T or NT | Average (Gmax) |
Ironcutter | PRG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 18-Aug-25 | 2 | NT | 31.900 |
Latitude 36 | KBG | 10 | 10 | DS | DS | 24-Jul-25 | 1 | NT | 36.100 |
Tahoma 31 | KBG | 2 | 2 | DS | DS | 18-Aug-25 | 2 | NT | 46.400 |
Highest in Clegg Testing
Cultivar | O/S Type | Rate O/S | Specific O/S Area | Type O/S | Location of O/S | Date | Rep. Area | T or NT | Average (Gmax) |
Ironcutter | 0 | 0 | 5 | 0 | SS | None | 3 | T | 71.900 |
Tahoma 31 | PRG | 5 | 5 | DS | DS | 4-Aug-25 | 3 | T | 74.500 |
Latitude 36 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 0 | DS | None | 3 | NT | 85.400 |
Based on the Clegg Testing, known as testing of surface hardness, Ironcutter was the lowest in Gmax testing in both ranges in cultivars. Latitude 36 was the second cultivar with mid-low and the highest Gmax scoring.
