Abstract/Contents: | Defines summer bentgrass decline as the decrease of "turf quality of creeping bentgrass on golf courses in warm climatic regions during summer months, typically accompanied or preceded by root shortening or death." Summarizes the results of a report "to better understand how carbohydrate metabolism is related to summer decline in turf quality and root activities of creeping bentgrass." Concludes that "prolonged heat stress may cause carbohydrate depletion, leading to summer bentgrass decline" and that "cultural practices that could promote carbohydrate production, including raising mowing height, would be helpful in maintaining quality bentgrass greens during summer." |
