| Abstract/Contents: | "This investigation documented growth and nutritional responses of St. Augustinegrass 'Floralawn', 'Floratam', 'Floratine', and 'Seville' in salinized (conductivity = 1.1 to 41.5 dSm-1) solution cultures. Averaged over all cultivars' tissue, Cl concentrations increased linearly as salinity increased, while Na concentrations reached a threshold at 10 dSm-1, with 'Floratine' being the least affected. All cultivars apparently substituted Na for K until an optimum level was reached. Leaf tissue concentration of P decreased linearly, while Ca and Mg decreased nonlinearly with increased salinity. The salinity level that caused a 50% reduction in Ca concentration was 24% lower for 'Floratine' than for other cultivars. Tissue color differences were more strongly correlated with Ca and Mg levels in 'Floratine' than 'Seville'. Differences in cultivar response were noted for K, P, Ca, and Mg, with 'Seville' being the most salt-tolerant among those evaluated, based on overall nutritional and growth responses." |
