Abstract/Contents:Discusses Tifway bermudagrass root response to nitrogen, stating that "if a practical nitrogen (N) application rate exists that inhibits root growth of Tifway...then the use of an N rate below such a threshold could maximize both soil-nitrate and water-use efficiency." Describes a study conducted "to assess root growth following ammonium nitrate fertilization." Detail the materials and methods of the study and reports that the researchers "recommend that one-time applications of water soluble N not exceed 1 pound N/1,000 square foot" and "high N use on turfgrasses has been shown to have many detrimental effects that include reduced cold hardiness, reduced heat, wear, and drought tolerance, increased thatch accumulation, and increased disease occurence and severity."
