| Abstract/Contents: | Presents an experiment in which "two methods for measuring sod rooting, root dry weight and root architecture were compared." Reports that [Kentucky bluegrass] sod was harvested and re-established in April 2006 and 2007. Roots were collected pre-harvest and biweekly for 8 weeks after sod re-establishment and analyzed for total root length, surface areas and dry weight." Concludes that "carbon allocations were used to construct finer roots during establishment compared to a mature [Kentucky bluegrass] root system. Use of dry weight to assess sod rooting rather than root architectural parameters may result in over application of inputs during [Kentucky bluegrass] sod re-establishment." |
