Abstract/Contents: | "Moisture was the most important factor influencing the emergence of common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers) and weeping lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Nees.) in a clay soil over the range of bulk density and soil water pressure investigated. Both grasses exhibited approximately the same emergence at the -^D 13 and -1-bar soil water pressures. Of those soil strengths and oxygen diffusion rates encountered, none limited seedling emergence of either grass. Small correlation was found between soil strength and seedling emergence." |
