Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to evaluate "the underlying factors associated with the fast growth of some zoysiagrass cultivars." Describes the methods used in the study, explaining that "cultivars were planted in sand-filled 2.5cm [cenimeter] diameter Ray Leach cone-tainers...using a segment of stolon or rhizome containing a single node and leaf and root tissues." Reports that "crop growth rate (CGR) is consistent with field results on establishment rate"; "cultivars that established quicker in the field have higher stem weight ratios than slower establishing cultivars, suggesting that they partition more dry matter into producing stems (stolons and rhizomes) than leaf or root tissues"; and "slower establishing cultivars partition more dry matter into producing leaves." |
