Figure 3. Tetraploid Perennial Ryegrass (left) and Diploid Perennial Ryegrass (right) root depth study by DLF International Seeds(DLF Seedsand Science)
was first introduced" although "in areas east of the mountains ...potential loss from cold winters is still a concern". However, 4N tetraploid perennial ryegrass has been been observed to overwinter well without winterkill east of the Cascade
Mountains in Kamloops, and Kelowna. DLF I.S. is confident that "[Tetraploid perennial ryegrasses] are comparable to some of the best diploids" and it is exciting think about what the future holds for new, improved tetraploid perennial ryegrasses.
