Examines "the characteristics of the turfgrass rootzone, and its interaction with the soil biotic community - particularly the microbial component of that community." Discusses the underground "black box", microbial diversity and competition in soil, the rhizosphere, microhabitats, soil factors influencing microbial populations, microbial growth in the rhizosphere, the characterization of microbial populations, and microbe management.
