Silicon application increases drought tolerance of kentucky bluegrass by improving plant water relations and morphophysiological functions. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournal, 2014 Drought stress encumbers the growth of turfgrass principally by disrupting the plant-water relations and physiological functions. The present study was carried out to appraise the role of silicon (Si) in improving the drought tolerance in Kentucky ...

Biostimulants in the Production of Forage Grasses and Turfgrasses
Agriculture, 2023 Biostimulants are becoming more prevalent in the production of forage and turfgrasses. Many can be classified as natural biostimulants, including humic acids (HA), fulvic acids (FA), protein hydrolysates (PHs) and seaweed extracts (SWE), in addition to ...

Invasive grass and litter accumulation constrain bee and plant diversity in altered grasslands
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Ecologists consider biological invasions one of the primary drivers of global change. Many remaining grasslands in North America have extensive invasions of exotic grass species that have replaced native plant species.
