Levels of Tolerance, Antibiosis, and Antixenosis Among Resistant Buffalograsses and Zoysiagrasses
The western chinch bug, Blissus occiduus Barber, has been documented as one of the most serious pests of buffalograss, Buchloë dactyloides (Nuttall) Engelmann, and zoysiagrass, Zoysia japonica Steudel, grown for turf in midwestern states. Resistance to the western chinch bug has been identified in both buffalograsses and zoysiagrasses.

Influence of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Silicon on Soybean Growth and Development in the Field
ABSTRACT Applications of silicon (Si) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to soils to increase plant resistance and plant growth and development are potential alternatives in soybean cultivation. Si and AMF promote growth and stress tolerance through increased absorption of essential micro and macronutrients, restriction of toxic ion uptake ...
