Abstract/Contents: | "Turfgrass systems are challenged by biotic and abiotic stresses that affect their growth and function. In the summer months cool season grasses are effected by periods of heat and drought that impact overall turfgrass health and can result in death or damage from secondary stresses. Efforts to mitigate damage caused by these stresses have mainly relied on cultural practices and use of adapted cultivars or species. In recent years, an additional tool to improve turf health during stress is through the application of synthetic priming compounds, also known as plant health activators. Two common priming agents include petroleum-derived spray oils (PDSO) and acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM), which are reported to activate induced systemic resistance and systemic acquired resistance, respectively. In turfgrasses there is some evidence that these compounds function by altering metabolic pathways. Adaptation to drought involves changes in both primary and secondary metabolic pathways including photosynthesis, respiration, and the biosynthesis of osmolytes and antioxidants. The objectives of this study were to determine how these priming compounds regulates shifts in metabolism to improve drought tolerance and to compare these impacts between two creeping bentgrass cultivars varying in drought tolerance. The experiment consisted of 12 treatments, including two irrigation levels, two cultivars 'Penncross' and '007', and three priming treatments. Plants were pretreated three times with either PDSO or ASM prior to reducing irrigation, and two additional treatments were made during reduced irrigation period. Samples for metabolic analysis were taken at 3 time points corresponding to different stages of priming and stress exposure. When treated with ASM 'Penncross' showed 20 significant primary metabolic features changed in response to priming or stress whereas '007' showed only 1. Only secondary metabolites of 'Penncross' treated with ASM were examined over the three time points, which we identified 764 unique compounds which responded to either ASM or irrigation." |
