| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted by the United States Golf Association (USGA) to "1. Evaluate the interaction of drought and salinity on perennial ryegrass turf maintained as golf course rough. 2. Determine the leaching requirements for salinity management as influenced by several factors including irrigation water quality, soil physical properties, turfgrass species, cultural practices and rapid blight disease incidence. 3. Evaluate new and existing technologies and practices for determining soil water and salinity, and ultimately irrigation requirements for salinity management, turf health, and optimal playing conditions. 4. Assess the population size and activity of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in the turf rhizophere in response to imposed drought and salinity stress." Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "in this study, we combined the line source irrigation method of generating a continuous distribution of saline and potable irrigation water with the application of different quantities of water to provide detailed information on the interaction of water application and salinity on plant response." Reports that "as saline and drought conditions continue over the next couple months, we expect further losses of turf, ultimately leading to the conclusion of data collection." Concludes that "comprehensive statistical analyses of 2011 and 2012 data are planned to more accurately identify critical irrigation and salinity levels for turfgrass management and water conservation." |
