| Abstract/Contents: | "The decline in turf quality and root growth of creeping bentgrass is a major concern in managing bentgrass greens in warm climatic and transitional regions. This article reports a study that investigated whether foliar application of trinexapac-ethyl (TE) and two biostimulants (TurfVigorand CPR) containing seaweed extracts could alleviate summer decline in creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.).The study was performed on a 'Penncross' putting green built on a sandy loam soil at Hort Farm II, North Brunswick, NJ in 2007 and 2008. Turf was foliar sprayed with water (control), trinexapac-ethyl (0.05 kg a.i. ha-1), TurfVigor (47.75 L ha-1) or CPR (19.10 L ha-1) from late June to early September in a two-week interval in both years. Foliar application of trinexapac-ethyl helped to maintain better turf quality of creeping bentgrass under summer stress by alleviating leaf senescence, but had limited effects on root growth. The two seaweed-based biostimulants significantly improved visual quality of creeping bentgrass in summer by promoting both shoot and root growth. Application of trinexapac-ethyl and selected biostimulants following their respective label rates in a two-weekinterval was effective to improve summer performance of creeping bentgrass." |
