USGA Summary Points:The major effort of or project in 2001 was transform buffalograss using biolistic bombardment with the goal making buffalograss Roundup-resistant. Legacy was selected as "mail order plant of the year" by a major mail order trade organization. Observations in 2001 indicate that the best vegetative cultivars can be maintained at fairway mowing heights and still tolerate normal traffic, as long as conditions are dry. To date, nitrogen application rate is not a major factor.
