‘Mislevy’ (Reg. no. CV‐46, PI 693070) bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] was selected at the University of Florida, and a series of research projects was conducted to evaluate the merit of Mislevy to be released as a new bermudagrass cultivar in Florida. A grazing experiment was conducted in South Florida and clipping trials conducted in South Florida, north‐central Florida, and North Florida. In the grazing trial, Mislevy was compared with Jiggs, World Feeder, and ‘Tifton 85’ bermudagrass, and four stargrass (Cynodon nlemfuensis Vanderyst) cultivars/entries at four grazing frequencies. Mislevy, Jiggs, and Florona had the greatest overall herbage accumulation (HA), but Mislevy had greater HA at late maturity (7 wk). In the clipping trials, Mislevy was compared with Jiggs, Tifton 85, ‘Tifton 44’, ‘Coastal’, Alicia (North Florida only), and ‘Russell’ (North Florida only) bermudagrass. Mislevy and Jiggs had greater spring HA and total HA than the other cultivars/entries in South Florida and North Florida. In South Florida, all cultivars/entries had the presence of Bipolaris spp. in the aboveground forage at the 9‐wk regrowth interval; however, Mislevy and Tifton 44 had greater proportion of green tissue. In north‐central Florida, there was no difference in spring HA among cultivars, and Tifton 85 had greater total annual HA than Mislevy. Mislevy may be a viable option to increase bermudagrass genetic diversity and provide superior spring and annual HA in South Florida.

“ Mislevy”百慕大草的注册

佛罗里达大学选择了百慕大的“ Mislevy”（注册号CV-46，PI 693070），Cynodon dactylon（L.）Pers.。开展了一系列研究项目，以评估Mislevy的优点。作为佛罗里达州的一种新的百慕大草品种发布。在南佛罗里达进行了放牧试验，在南佛罗里达，中北部佛罗里达和北佛罗里达进行了剪草试验。在放牧试验中，将Mislevy与Jiggs，World Feeder和'Tifton 85'百慕大草和4个stargrass（Cynodon nlemfuensis）进行了比较。Vanderyst）的品种/输入频率为四个放牧频率。Mislevy，Jiggs和Florona具有最高的总体草料积累（HA），但Mislevy在成熟后期（7周）具有更高的HA。在剪辑试验中，将Mislevy与Jiggs，Tifton 85，“ Tifton 44”，“ Coastal”，Alicia（仅北佛罗里达）和“ Russell”（仅北佛罗里达）百慕大进行了比较。Mislevy和Jiggs的春季HA和总HA高于南佛罗里达州和北佛罗里达州的其他品种/条目。在南佛罗里达州，所有品种/品种均存在双极spp。以9周的再生间隔在地上的草料中; 然而，Mislevy和Tifton 44的绿色组织比例更高。在佛罗里达州中北部，不同品种的春季HA并无差异，Tifton 85的年总HA高于Mislevy。错配可能是增加百慕大草遗传多样性并在南佛罗里达州提供优质春季和年度HA的可行选择。
