| Abstract/Contents: | "Cool-season turfgrasses, such as creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) are adversely affected by prolonged periods of heat stress and experience loss of yield and performance resulting from premature leaf senescence. The objectives of this study included determining whether exogenous application of sitosterol, an organic membrane-stabilizing compound, could enhance heat tolerance in creeping bentgrass and to understand the manners in which sitosterol may affect antioxidant metabolism. Mature creeping bentgrass plants were placed under heat stress (35/30 °C, day/night) or optimal (22/18 °C, day/night) temperature conditions for a duration of 28 d within climate-controlled growth chambers and were foliar-treated on a weekly basis with 400 μM sitosterol. Plants treated with sitosterol had significantly higher turf quality and chlorophyll content than untreated controls at 21 and 28 d of heat stress, while EL was significantly lower at those dates. Additionally, malondialdehyde content was significantly lower in treated plants at 21 and 28 d of heat stress. The activities of four antioxidants, superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were significantly increased in response to sitosterol treatment from 14-28 d of heat stress. These findings indicate that application of sitosterol may improve heat tolerance in plants under heat stress mainly by decreasing lipid peroxidation of membranes and promoting antioxidant metabolism." |
