Harvester‐Mounted NIRS as a High‐Throughput Approach for Predicting Forage Nutritive Value

Grass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 1, January-March 2026.
ABSTRACT Near‐infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) is an effective method for quantifying key plant constituents in dried and milled forage samples. However, the labour‐intensive nature of sample preparation for laboratory‐based NIRS limits its application for selection in routine forage breeding.

Amelioration of Salt Stress on Bermudagrass by the Fungus Aspergillus aculeatus

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2017
There is considerable evidence that plant abiotic-stress tolerance can be evoked by the exploitation of a globally abundant microbe. A. aculeatus, which was initially isolated from the rhizosphere of bermudagrass, has been shown to increase heavy metal ...

Identifying challenges in establishing pollinator lawns among current and potential owners

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 10, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Interest in alternatives to traditional turfgrass lawns is growing, with pollinator lawns emerging as a popular option. Although these lawns offer some advantages over traditional ones, such transitions present challenges for homeowners. This study aimed to identify the most common obstacles encountered by current and prospective pollinator ...

Post‐application irrigation effect on surfactant efficacy applied to a sand‐based putting green

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Soil surfactants are applied to recreational turfgrass areas like golf course putting greens to help improve water infiltration, distribution, and uniformity. Most commercially available surfactant labels recommend immediate post‐application irrigation (PAI) to maximize product efficacy.

Exploring divot resistance and recovery of select turfgrasses used on golf courses

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Divots are pieces of the turfgrass sward removed when golf clubs strike playing surfaces with impact energy that exceeds turfgrass shear strength. Divot resistance and recovery are factors affecting turfgrass species and cultivar selection for golf courses.

Autonomous and reel mowers in golf course fairway maintenance: A case study in Italy

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The golf industry is undergoing a technological transformation with the integration of autonomous solutions for turf maintenance. The implementation of autonomous mowers (AMs) offers the potential for maintaining low cutting heights at high frequencies, thereby reducing soil compaction and labor requirements.

Management strategies for preventing and recovering from zoysiagrass winterkill

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp. Willd.) is a warm‐season grass used from tropical to temperate climates, and it generally requires fewer inputs than most other cool‐ and warm‐season turfgrasses. The development of new zoysiagrass cultivars has increased its use in the United States, but its adaptation and specific uses are species and cultivar ...
