Series of field and laboratory studies were conducted from 2011 to 2012 in Russian State Agrarian University to evaluate a collection of 4 turf grass species and 15 cultivars for quality, summer density, ground cover and germination percentage. During 2 experimental seasons the plants have been growing with the extensive treatments. Turf quality was evaluated visually using a 1 to 9 scale. The two-way analysis of variance was used to identify genotype’s effects on density, ground cover and germination percentage
