emergence of seedlings has long been the goal of horticulturists as a means of optimizing stand uniformity and maturity in direct-seeded crops ( Fromme et al., 2014 ; Seale and Cantliffe, 1987 ). Low soil temperatures can increase the time to emergence

, an optimum tissue culture matrix and transplanting matrix were screened using an orthogonal experiment, and a new model of large-scale standardized breeding was explored through direct seeding. Materials and Methods Reagents and medicines

Less than optimal establishment of new turfgrass lawns from seed is often the result of slow and nonuniform germination and emergence because of poor environmental growing conditions ( Christians, 1998 ; Frelich et al., 1973 ; Perry, 1980

at four North Dakota sites using several cultivars, seed yield was reduced on average from 2000 lb/acre for conventional harvest to 1260 lb/acre for direct harvest ( Eckert et al., 2011a ). The seed remaining on the ground after harvest indicated
