ABSTRACT:
A vegetatively reproduced buffalograss cultivar named `NE86-120` is distinguished from other commercially produced buffalograss varieties by its excellent turfgrass color, cold tolerance, high density, dark green color, low growth habit, and rate of establishment. `NE86-120` is also distinguished from other varieties by molecular markers and nuclear DNA content. `NE86-120` is suitable for use in low to medium maintenance situations in arid and semi-arid climates of United States and Canada.
