Abstract/Contents: | "Water use is among the most limiting factors for the sustainability of golf course management. To enable water savings through deficit irrigation programs more knowledge is needed about how deficit irrigation and rooting depth affect drought resistance. Seven bermudagrass cultivars and one zoysiagrass cultivar were planted as a randomized complete block in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Irrigation treatments were applied weekly at a deficit of 70%, 53%, 35%, or 18% of ETo. Soil moisture was measured at discrete points along the upper 40 cm two to three times per week. Measurements of visual turfgrass quality and percent green cover were collected weekly. To test the effect of rooting depth on drought resistance, mini-lysimeters having a 15-cm diameter were installed within each plot to restrict rooting to depths of 20 or 31 cm. Relative drought resistance was compared among genotypes and rooting depth. Preliminary results from 2018 showed few statistically significant differences among bermudagrasses in regards to water use rate and drought resistance. The zoysiagrass demonstrated leaf firing earlier regardless of rootzone depth. Results can be used by golf course superintendents to develop deficit irrigation programs for their facility - particularly if rootzone depth is a limitation of their soils." |
