| Abstract/Contents: | "Athletic field safety is of paramount concern in worldwide conversation. Increased field usage and growing interest in injury prevention have turf managers striving for management practices that will improve turf traffic tolerance. Previous research has shown that mowing and rolling of golf course turf results in physiological changes measured by plant stress enzyme levels. This field study is being conducted to determine how simulated athletic traffic physiologically affects plant stress enzymatic systems. Two levels of athletic field traffic (0 and 2 games week-1) were applied using a modified Baldree traffic simulator for 8 weeks coinciding with the fall football schedule, resulting in 8 data collection dates. Turf was 'HGT' Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) cut at 5 cm and grown on a native silt loam soil in Ames, IA. Experimental design was a split-plot randomized complete block with four replications. Turf leaves were individually cut from appropriate sub-plots and submerged in liquid nitrogen at 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hrs after traffic application. Activities of reactive oxygen species scavenging enzymes ascorbate peroxidase, catalase, glutathione reductase, and superoxide dismutase were assayed over the times listed above. Efficiency of photosystem II and lipid peroxidation were measured to quantify oxidative injury. This is a two-year trial and first year results (2018) will be presented." |
