Abstract/Contents:"This study was carried out to investigate the growth and branching pattern of stolons at Korean lawn(Zoysia japonica Steud.) in the field condition. The results were summarized as follows: 1. About 80% of observed lawns had one primary stolon. Among the lawns with several primary stolons, 30% of them had two primary stolons, 63% had three, and 7% had four. 2. The angles between the primary stolon and the shoot were increased from 0° to 52° according to the node order from the terminal shoot apex, and reached maximum angle at the 7th node. 3. The internode length was the longest in the middle position of stolon, and its growing rate which depends on months was increased from May to September. 4. The branching angles between primary and secondary stolon were from 44° to 53° in each node. The average left branching angle was about 48.2°, right branching angle 47.8°, and the total average branching angle was 48.0°. 5. The rate of initial brabch(branch) was the highest at the 10th node in May, the 7th node in July and the 5th node in September. But, the initial branching rate at the 7th node in July was higher than any other that at the 10th node in May and the 5th node in September. 6. The distribution rate of secondary stolon in each node of primary stolon was the highest at the 7th node. 7. When the terminal shoot apex of primary stolon was damaged mechanically, the branching rate at the first node after the damaged region was highly increased to 62%. The results of this study may be suggested that the secondary stolon begins to branch with the angle of 48° from the 7th node of the normal primary stolon, and those may be used as a basic data for the branching simulation in lawn."
