Enhancing spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses through late‐winter scalping
Abstract Rapid spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses in the transition zone is often desired to improve early‐season turfgrass quality, thereby increasing the acceptance of these species in arid and semi‐arid climates. This study evaluated the effects of late winter scalping on spring green‐up speed in 41 cultivars of bermudagrass (Cynodon spp ...

Screening bermudagrass genotypes for improved forage production
Abstract Cynodon is a diverse genus of great economic importance to the southeastern United States. However, the bermudagrass stem maggot (BSM; Atherigona reversura Villeneuve) is threatening bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) throughout the region. Long‐term solutions require the development and release of BSM‐tolerant bermudagrass genotypes.

Mitigation of salt stress on low temperature in bermudagrass: resistance and forage quality
Climate change causes plants encountering several abiotic stresses simultaneously. Responses of plants to a single stress has been comprehensively studied, but it is hard to speculated infer the effects of stress combination based on these researches ...

Abstract Traditionally, turfgrass color has been assessed through visual ratings or light box‐based digital image analysis, methods that are either subjective or labor‐intensive. In this study, we evaluated the potential of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based multispectral and red‐green‐blue (RGB) imagery as a high‐throughput alternative for capturing ...

Determining Nitrogen Fertilizer Cost Using Turfgrass Response
Numerous nitrogen (N) sources are used in turfgrass management and vary from soluble to slow-release. Determining the least expensive N source can be confusing for consumers. Price per ton and price per pound N are common price comparison methods.

Evaluating soil amendments for establishment of centipedegrass sod
Abstract Soil amendments are frequently incorporated prior to turfgrass sod installation to improve rooting and establishment; however, these materials represent a substantial cost to contractors, sod producers, and homeowners. Despite the widespread use of compost, topsoil, and sand, limited information exists on whether these amendments provide ...

Newly established bermudagrass response to topramezone and photosystem II-inhibitor herbicides
Bermudagrass is the most troublesome and difficult-to-control perennial grass weed in Florida sugarcane. Once established, it may be effectively controlled only during the sugarcane fallow period using a combination of nonselective herbicides and tillage.
