Abstract/Contents: | "Turfgrass growth and performance may be severely limited when subjected to drought stress due to a lack of adequate water supply. Reduced irrigation practices, including deficit irrigation to replace less than 100% water lost due to evapotranspiration, or complete water withholding practices have generated a demand not only for improving drought stress tolerance but also for promoting rapid post-stress recovery. The goal of the 2018 summer creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) fairway study was to evaluate the effectiveness of plant-health products, such as fungicides and plant growth regulators, targeted for improved drought stress tolerance under either complete water withholding (drought) or deficit irrigation (replacing 60% of the water lost due to evapotranspiration). This study also examined whether or not the products could promote rapid post-stress recovery through resumption of growth upon rewatering. The results demonstrated that the plant-health products enhanced drought tolerance and post-stress recuperative potential during both a moderate (60% ET replacement) or severe drought stress, as manifested by increased leaf relative water content, turf quality, green canopy density, and leaf area index, as well as reduced stress index. The overall improved physiological health and performance observed in this study is a critical component for maintaining sustainable turfgrass stands. Such knowledge highlights the significance of using plant-health products to facilitate the maintenance of creeping bentgrass under sub-optimal irrigation management programs without sacrificing turfgrass function or productivity." |
