Abstract/Contents:"Heat stress in summer is a major factor limiting use of cool-season grasses in Shanghai area, China. The objectives of this study were to investigate effects of a crude extract product of a new strain of Streptomyces microflavus (TSS) on turf performance and physiological activities of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) in response to heat stress. Plants of tall fescue cultivar 'Barlexus' were exposed to 38/33°C (day/night) high temperature in growth chamber after TSS applications. High temperature induced about 3.5 fold increases of initial shoot extension rate and clipping yield (6 d) and led to quick decline of plant growth after 18 d. TSS inhibited the extent of initial increases of shoot extension rate and clipping yield and maintained a longer period of steady growth under the heat stress. TSS also decreased the decline of leaf chlorophyll content, TNC, shoot density, and turf quality induced by heat stress. The results suggested that TSS application improved turf performance under heat stress, and the greater improvement of heat tolerance was associated with higher dose of application. This positive effect on heat tolerance could be related to the decreased carbohydrate consumption and loss, and reduced decomposition of leaf chlorophyll."
