Abstract/Contents: | Describes an experiment that evaluated the influence of Trinexapac-ethyl at various rates on turfgrass shade tolerance by: determining the growth habitat and turf performance; measuring the root production and root viability; and determining the effect of trinexapac-ethyl on the photosynthesis rate and non-structural carbohydrate status of Diamond zoysiagrass grown in a heavy shade condition. Characteristics discussed were shoot growth, turf quality, tiller number, root production and root viability, carbohydrate reserve status and canopy photosynthesis. The effects of shade and trinexapac-ethyl on these characteristics were studied. It was concluded that trinexapac-ethyl was an effective management tool to achieve the benefits of reducing mowing and shade tolerance. |
