Abstract/Contents: | "Two controlled environment experiments were designed to study the effect of photoperiod and a cold treatment on rhizome and tiller development of 'Merion' and 'Windsor' Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) Evidence is given to support the following conclusions: 1. A cold treatment is not essential for rhizome formation. Cold treatments increased tillering but reduced the number of rhizomes. 2. Both initiation and elongation of rhizomes were favored by a 16- or 18-hour photoperiod when compared to a 8- or 12- hour photoperiod. 3. Tillering showed little response to initial photoperiod, although more tillers were formed with a 12-hour than with an 8- or 18-hour photoperiod in one experiment. 4. Windsor generally produced more and longer primary and secondary rhizomes than Merion but the latter tillered more profusely than Windsor." |
