Bentgrass PortfolioTYEE and 007 DSB “Super Bents”Why have the bentgrass varieties 007 DSB and TYEE become known as ‘super bents’?Simply because they far exceed the overall turf performance that one would expect fromolder creeping bentgrass varieties and have proven performance on greens, tees andfairways which exceed that of even the Penn A & G varieties.The key to the success of both these varieties is a broad genetic base. The genetic base of007 DSB was developed using twenty four parent plants. It is this background that enablesthese varieties to deliver the same results all around the world from the extreme heat ofMorocco to the harsh cold of Western Siberia.VARIETYTrial Results(NTEP, USA)RATING- SANDCLOSE MOWING (3-4MM)MICRO DOCHIUMTYEE Creeping BentHighly competitive against Poa annuaExtra density in all seasonsHeat tolerantHigh disease resistance especiallyto Fusarium and Snow MouldVery good cool weather colourretention, no purple colour duringthe winter monthsWhether sown alone or as part of a blend,TYEE offers a superior putting surface, helpsreduce weed invasion and increases golfersatisfaction, while a tolerance to stressreduces fungicide requirements.Sowing Rate: 8 - 12g/m 2 (80 - 120kgs/ha)Overseeding Rate: 5 - 8g/m 2(50 - 80kgs/ha)Cutting height: Down to 3mm007 DSB Creeping BentModerate density relative to TYEEWidely adaptable to both warmsummers and cold wintersVery salt tolerant – trials show it tobe more salt tolerant than Seaside IIVery good cool weather colourretention, no purple colour duringthe winter monthsHigh disease resistance especiallyto Anthracnose, Fusarium andSnow MouldDollar spot resistance007 DSB offers superior turf quality,eliminates winter stress discolouration andis highly competitive against poa annua.Highly versatile - it is suitable for use ongreens, tees and fairways, as a completereseed or for overseeding. 007 DSB hasenhanced Dollar Spot resistance and offersvigorous, uniform growth.Sowing Rate: 8 - 12g/m 2 (80 - 120kgs/ha)Overseeding Rate: 5 - 8g/m 2(50 - 80kgs/ha)Cutting height: Down to 3mm007 (DSB)TYEECY2INDEPENDENCE 1COBRA NOVADECLARATIONSHARK (23R)AUTHORITY(235050)PENN A-1MEMORIAL(A03-ED1)LS-44BENCHMARK DSR13-MKINGPIN (9200)PENNLINKS IIPENNCROSS6.36.36.16.26.16.36.36.26.26.26.26.05.95.95.55.06.36.16.46.16.46.36.26.26.06.46.26.16.26.25.75.28.79.09.08.79.09.09.08.39.09.08.76.79.09.08.38.3Mean turfgrass quality ratings of creepingbentgrass cultivars grown on a sand green(eleven locations) and a soil green (thirteenlocations), and under close mowing to3 - 4mm (thirteen locations) in the USAand Canada, 2004-2007 final data.(Turfgrass quality ratings 1 - 9, 9 = Ideal turf)
