• Fine fescue traffic tolerance National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trial
• Low maintenance National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trial
• Perennial ryegrass National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trial
• Tall fescue National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trial

• Low Input Turf Using Fine Fescues (SCRI-NIFA)

• Annual Bluegrass Herbicide Resistance (SCRI-NIFA)

Annual Bluegrass Putting Green Maintenance

• Mowing and rolling trials
• Long-term Poa fertility trial
• Alternative strategies to manage Microdochium patch
• Anthracnose, gray snow mold, and Microdochium patch fungicide evaluation trials
