Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the goal to develop turfgrasses and golf course management systems that are tolerant of stressful climatic conditions, conserve water, and use less fertilizer and pesticides through research. Mentions that "since 1983, the United States Golf Association (USGA) has provided more than 31 million dollars in support of more than 450 projects at research institutions across the nation." Adds examples of where research funding is being used, such as the goal of understanding metabolic processes and genetic improvement of turfgrasses. |
