Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "determine the role of carbohydrates, proline and proteins in the freeze tolerance of zoysiagrass cultivars." Explains that "Zoysiagrass...is a warm-season grass well-adapted for lawns and golf turfs in the transitional and warm climatic regions of the USA [United States of America] and requires minimal maintenance inputs." Reports that "certain carbohydrates and proline were found to play a role in improving freezing tolerance. High concentrations of gluecose, total reducing sugars, total soluble sugar:starch ratio, and proline were also found to play a role in improving freeze tolerance." |
