Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "identify growth and physiological traits of creeping bentgrass cultivars associated with tolerance to full and partial soil saturation." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "mature, healthy creeping bentgrass ('A-4', 'G-6', 'L-93', 'Pennlinks', and 'Penncross') sod plugs were collected from USGA [United States Golf Association] sand mix...Grasses were grown in a greenhouse for 60 d [days] in polyvinlychloride (PVC) tubes (10 cm [centimeter] diameter x 40 cm deep) filled with medium sand (0.25-0.5 mm [milimeters] diameter)...Saturation treatments were imposed by plugging the drainage holes of PVC tubes...turf quality (TQ) was visually rated as an integral of color, uniformity, and density on the scale of 1 (brown leaves) to 9 (turgid, green leaves)." Reports that "saturation significantly reduced TQ. Turf quality decreased with increasing water level from 15- to 1-cm below the soil surface." Concludes that "these results suggest that even partial saturation could substantially affect turfgrass growth and physiological activities, and cultivar variations in low oxygen tolerance could potentially be used for enhancing breeding programs." |
