| Abstract/Contents: | "Light reflectance and chlorophyll content of 10 turfgrass species grown under different conditions indicated that the ratio between the far red (FR) (peak at 732 nm) and red (R) (peak at 640nm) components of the light reflected from the grass surface correlated with the percentage green cover in an incompletely covered sward, and the intensity of color where coverage was complete. A simple practical method for measuring these 2 parameters is proposed, using a Plant Growth Photometer capable of measuring the FR/R ratio." |
