Unveiling the genetic determinants of germination efficiency in common bermudagrass: A genome-wide association study. [PDF]
Abstract Common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] is an economically and ecologically important warm‐season perennial species widely used for turf, forage, and soil conservation and remediation. Seeding offers economic and practical advantages over vegetative propagation for establishing common bermudagrass.

The extended day length promotes earlier flowering of bermudagrass [PDF]
Day length is a very critical environmental factor affecting plant growth and development. The extension of light application time has been shown to promote flowering in the long-day plant and to shorten breeding time in some crops.

Red bermudagrass mite severely reduces growth in hybrid bermudagrass [PDF]
AbstractMite infestations are widely recognized as reducing the growth of affected warm‐season turfgrasses. This observation is, however, a qualitative assessment, albeit based on extensive field observations over the past >60 yr, and the level of reduced growth has never previously been quantified.
