Abstract/Contents: | "Research conducted on 'Champion' bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. X C. transvaalensis Burtt- Davy) at the Clemson University Turfgrass Research Center determined (1) optimum nitrogen rates for 'Champion' growing under shade and full sunlight and (2) the effects of trinexapac-ethyl, various nitrogen rates, and iron on 'Champion' bermudagrass performance and thatch accumulation under shade over a two-year period. Their findings include: A 'Champion' bermudagrass putting green growing under shade requires about 40% less nitrogen than a green growing under full sunlight. Thatch accumulation under shade was 40% lower than under full sunlight. This suggests that bermudagrass greens under shade stress require less aggressive cultivation programs. Routine iron applications throughout the growing season had little effect on 'Champion' bermudagrass under shade or full sunlight. Applying trinexapac-ethyl every two weeks at 0.02 kg ha-1 improved turfgrass quality under shade of 'Champion'. This study implies that fertility programs should be adjusted if an ultradwarf bermudagrass putting green is under shade stress." |
