Abstract/Contents:Discusses an experiment conducted "to study the physiological responses of [Kentucky bluegrass, Poa pratensis L.] and [tall fescue, Schedonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub] under a prolonged drought." Explains that "two irrigation treatments were applied in 2007 and 2008 to plots of 'Newport' and 'Midnight' Kentucky bluegrass and 'Gazelle' tall fescue in North Logan, UT [Utah]. Each plot was 2 x 1.5 m [meters] in size." States that "Kentucky bluegrass decreased in stomatal conductance and xylem water potential faster and greater than [tall fescue] in response to dry conditions and was in complete summer dormancy within 5 weeks in both years." Reports that "the surface temperature of grasses showed the same trend in both years where the well-water plots were cooler than the non-irrigated plots and [tall fescue] showed lower temperature than [Kentucky bluegrass] in both well-watered and no-watered plots."
