| Abstract/Contents: | "The objectives of this study were 1) to determine the levels of applied nitrogen necessary to cause carbohydrate reserves to become a growth-limiting factor, and 2) to determine the quantitative effects of various nitrogen treatments on the individual sugar fractions which compose this carbohydrate reserve. Agrostis palustris 'Toronto', Poa pratensis 'Merion' and 'common', Lolium perenne 'common' and Festuca rubra 'Pennlawn' were the grasses studied. Nitrogen treatments providing 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 pounds of actual nitrogen per thousand square feet per season were administered in one application and in six monthly applications. Nitrogen applications of 6, 9, and 12 pounds uniformly lowered all carbohydrate fractions with the 3 pounds, while fructosan remained in trace amounts. Sucrose, glucose and fructose appeared to maintain adequate levels under all nitrogen treatments." |
