Golf course turf

Poa annua, or annual meadow grass, is a widespread low-growing turfgrass in temperate climates. Notwithstanding the reference to annual plant in its name, perennial biotypes do exist. This grass originated as a hybrid between Poa supina and Poa infirma.

Major chromosomal rearrangements after polyploidy have contributed to variation in genome size in Poa annua.
