Abstract/Contents: | "The quality of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) turf declines in Japan during the summer, however, it is not well understood whether flooding by heavy and prolonged rain and/or heat causes such a decline. Therefore an experiment was conducted to examine the effect of flooding on cultivars of perennial ryegrass and find whether there is any relation between flood damage to the cultivars and flood duration. Seed of 58 cultivars of perennial ryegrass was planted in pots filled with sand and flooding was imposed on the cultivars by blocking the drainage holes of the pots using rubber stoppers after plants were well established. Flood damage, density, and colour were estimated visually every month and compared with the control. Flooding did not cause damage to the tested cultivars during the autumn, winter, and spring. Thus, there was no relation between flood damage and flood duration. However, as flooding continued into summer, it caused damage to the cultivars. This suggested that flooding by itself may not be the cause of the damage, however, when flooding interacts with high temperature, severe damage can occur to this species in the region. A wide range in flood damage among the cultivars suggests that under certain conditions flood screening among the cultivars of this species is possible. On the basis of this experiment, `All Star' and `Premier' are recommended as relatively tolerant cultivars to flooding under our conditions, but most of the cultivars may tolerate flooding for a long period under low temperature. However, it may be possible to select flood tolerant cultivars of the species under high temperatures." |
