Evaluation Of Pigment-Containing Products On Creeping Bentgrass [Agrostis Stolonifera L. Var Palustris (Huds.)] Performance, James Gann
All Theses
Golf courses continue to explore all options for relief of summer stress on bentgrass [Agrostis stolonifera L. var palustris (Huds.)] putting greens. The use of colorants and other pigment-containing products has recently been suggested as a means of relieving this stress by reducing temperatures and respiration, and increasing photosynthesis. Research supporting these claims is limited, especially on bentgrass putting greens located in stressful environments. The objective of this experiment was therefore to investigate the impacts of pigment-containing products on turfgrass physiology during hot and humid summer months in the Southeastern USA.
Four pigment-containing products were selected for the two 2012 …
The Response Of Bermudagrasses [Cynodon Dactylon (L.) Pers. X C. Transvaalensis Burtt-Davy] And Creeping Bentgrass [Agrostis Stoloniferi (L.)] To A Commercial Humectant And Wetting Agents During Summer, Robin Landry
All Theses
Four field studies, one laboratory and one greenhouse study were conducted from April 2011 through August 2011 at Clemson University in Clemson, SC on `L-93'creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.), `Tifeagle' bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. X C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy), and a combination of `Tifway' (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. X C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) and common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.)
The objectives of this research were: (i) evaluate bentgrass response to two irrigation regimes, light and frequent irrigation (replacing daily ET), verses deep and infrequent irrigation (watering at the sign of wilt); (ii) evaluate the combination of a humectant and a soil …
