Abstract/Contents: | Overviews ways to understand "heat stress kill mechanism and heat stress resistance, plus the cultural approaches for minimizing heat stress." Notes that heat stress is a problem commonly found with cool-season turfgrasses, such as creeping bentgrass. Mentions that "lethal heat stress results from the destruction of the critical protoplasm proteins in living cells." Lists the cultivars that "exhibit improved heat resistance in low humidity environments." |
