| Abstract | ||
| A weed survey of turfgrass fields was conducted at Bajgah during 2008- 2009. The turfgrass fields had been covered with Sport turf. Quantitative measurements viz frequency (F), field uniformity (FU), mean field density (MFD), mean occurrence field density (MOFD) and relative abundance (RA) were recorded. Fourteen species of weeds of 9 families were recorded. Most of them were included in Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Poaceae, and Plantaginaceae. The most important broad leaved and narrow-leaved weeds were Taraxacum officinale L. and Cynodon dactylon [L.] Pers., respectively. Results indicated that the highest frequency (F) (100%), field uniformity (FU) (89.28%), mean field density (MFD) (58.43 m-2) and mean occurrence field density (MOFD) (58.43 m-2) belongs to T. officinale L. of the year 2008. Results were almost the same at year 2009. Taraxacum officinale L. showed the highest relative abundance in both years. | ||
