Abstract:Research was conducted to determine if the current list of undesired vegetation in the current Maintenance Rating Program handbook adequately listed species present in areas where turf scores were consistently low, if the different climate zones of Florida warranted an undesired species list by district, and if soil pH could be one of the causitive factors in bahiagrass decline in rights-of-way. Results of this research indicated that maidencane, tropical soda apple, and dogfennel could be removed from the current list, while species such as giant smutgrass, matchweed, teaweeds, white head broom, and largeflower pusley could be added to the list. Since most of the species that appear to be problematic are present statewide, there is likely no reason to produce district-specific undesired vegetation lists. Soil pH was at least 7.6 at all research sites, indicating that bahiagrass growth would be reduced significantly.
