Abstract/Contents: | "To provide useful targets for breeding cultivars of turfgrasses to tolerant salt and determine the relationship between results of short-term salt stress and those of long-term salt stress, the growth differences of four new selections of warm season turfgrasses, including Zoysia matrella (Z123), Z. japonica (Z080), Cynodon dactylon (C291), Paspalum vaginatum (P006), were analyzed under the short-term (six weeks) and long-term (nine-months) salt-stressed conditions by irrigating with salt water in this study. The results of this study showed that indexes of green leaf coverage and dry weight clipping shoots under short-term salt stress could be well used to assess relative slat tolerance of various turfgrasses. For each turfgrass, the actual growth under the short-term salt stress was quite different from that under the long-term salt stress. Four cultivars of turfgrasses were still alive at the 50 g/L salinity under the short-term salt stress, however, Z080, C291, P006, and Z123, were all dead at the salinity of 20, 40, 50 and 50 g/L under the long-term salt stress, respectively. Salinities of relative dry weight of clipping shoots of all turfgrasses being reduced by 50% under the long term salt stress were lower than these under the short-term salt stress. Based on green leaf coverage, salt tolerance decreased in the following order under the long-term salt stress: Z123>P006>C291>Z080." |
