Narrative
Adapted to the southeastern U.S. and low maintenance, marginal areas of the tall fescue transition zone. Intended for use as forage and turf. Average heading date equal to Georgia 5 and Kentucky 31, but earlier than Rebel and later than Au Triumph. Endophyte-infected (EI), consistently demonstrated better long term plant stand survival than Kentucky 31 (EI) and as good or better survival than Georgia 5. Endophyte-free (EF), showed better ability than AU Triumph to maintain stands after harsh summer conditions, and to give steer gains similar to alfalfa in low-maintenance turf conditions. Endophyte-infected demonstrated more persistence and a superior ability to retain stands than either Kentucky 31 (EI) or Rebel.
