Abstract/Contents:"It has been well documented that plant growth-promoting microorganism (PGPM) help improve yield and stress tolerance in field crops. However, limited information is available on the relationships between PGPM and other important turfgrass species, such as Kentucky bluegrass. The objective of this research is to determine the efficacy of commercially available PGPM products on the drought and salinity tolerance of Kentucky bluegrass. Two-week old Kentucky bluegrass were subjected to stress (Drought - Expt. 1 or Saline - Expt. 2) or non-stress conditions for 4 weeks (W3 - W6). Six commercially available PGPM products were applied at seeding and once weekly from W3 to W6, except Nortica (at seeding and week 4). When the experiment was terminated at W6, data were collected on shoot and root dry weight, root to shoot dry weight ratio, root length, and specific root length. 'Kenblue' outperformed 'Waterworks' (Drought - Expt. 1) and 'Moonlight' (Salinity - Expt. 2). Stressed plants showed reduced growth in all indices than the non-stressed plants, except specific root length. Limited differences were observed in PGPM treatments. The results showed that plant genotype and stress condition played a bigger role than PGPM at the initial growth stage. Further research should focus on the effects of PGPM on mature turf in the controlled and field conditons."
