Abstract/Contents:"Global water scarcity demands use of alternative water resources, and on turf, this means poor quality water with some level of salt stress (growth reduction, ion toxicity, soil degradation). Development of salt tolerant turfgrass cultivars is an important long-term management strategy for salt-affected sites. Ninety-four seashore paspalum ecotypes and four hybrid bermudagrass cultivars were screened in solution/sand culture system. Diverse salt tolerance (most tolerant were SI 93-1 and SI 93-3 and least tolerant was Adalayd) was found and bermudagrass cultivars generally exhibited significantly less salt tolerance than seashore paspalum. Salt tolerance evaluation for halophytic turfgrasses should include actual growth measurements for shoot, root, and total growth parameters at 0 and >35 dSm-1 salinity ranges. Site-specific integrated salinity management protocols must be developed in concert with cultivar development programs."
