| Abstract/Contents: | "Drought is one of the most limiting factors for turfgrass growth. The experiment was designed to evaluate the relationship between ABA and drought tolerance in eight Kentucky bluegrass cultivars. Grasses were grown in well-watered control and drought stress condition for 25 d in growth chamber. Leaf ABA concentration showed significant linear increase with drought stress process in initial 11 d of treatment. Cultivars that differ in drought resistance varied in the amount of ABA accumulation and stomatal sensitivity to ABA accumulation. Drought sensitive cultivars had more rapid increases and greater amount of ABA in response to drought stress compare to drought resistant cultivars. However, stomatal conductance was more sensitive to ABA accumulation for drought resistant cultivars than sensitive ones. Leaf ABA concentration showed close correlation with leaf water potential and relative water content. ABA accumulation rate was significant negative related to the decline rate of turf quality and leaf RWC, but positive related with the increase rate of electrolyte leakage. These results suggest that ABA could be used as a metabolic indicator of drought resistance for cool-season turfgrasses and it is possible to improve drought resistance in cool-season turfgrasses by selecting for a low production and high sensitivity of ABA in response to drought." |
