Abstract:

Annual ryegrass is used as a temporary cool-season plant on roadsides due to its rapid germination and adaptation to a wide range of soil types. It is not currently recommended by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) because its late maturity and height are too competitive for establishing subsequent permanent plant mixtures.

Two genotypes are available, which are significantly less competitive and could be seeded in the fall with fall seeded perennials and wildflowers. They are a turf-type ryegrass that was developed for sport fields and an early maturity type ryegrass that produces seed heads in winter. Both cultivars will senesce prior to germination of warm‐season perennials. The objective of this research was to determine if turf‐type or early maturing annual ryegrass can serve as a less competitive nurse crop for wildflowers and warm‐season perennials while still producing ground cover required to reduce erosion and stabilize roadsides.
