Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to evaluate "the freeze tolerance of zoysiagrass cultivars using controlled environment acclimation and freezing procedures." Describes the methods and materials used in the study, explaining that "a cold stress simulator was constructed by modifying a 0.55 m3 [cubic meter] chest freezer...Zoysiagrass plant material was collected in the fall of 2003 and propagated in the greenhouse in pots filled with fritted clay." Reports that "freezer tolerance (LT50) of zoysiagrass cultivars ranged from -8.4°C [Celcius] (Diamond) to -11.5°C (Meyer and Zenith) with a mean of -10.2°C." |
