Notice of release of Opportunity Germplasm Nevada bluegrass:

Abstract:

A selected germplasm of Nevada bluegrass (Poa secunda J. Presl [Poaceae]) has been released for use on severely impacted sites with moderately acidic to slightly alkaline soil pH and moderate to high soil concentrations of certain heavy metals. This germplasm has utility for reseeding burned forest lands to suppress weed growth, spring grazing, wildlife habitat enhancement practices, logging road revegetation, and general reclamation of mined lands.
