Alternative covering approaches to protect ultradwarf bermudagrass putting greens from winterkill
Abstract Winterkill remains a constant concern for warm‐season putting greens in the transition zone, particularly on ultradwarf hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers × C. transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy]. Using protective covers is an essential management strategy to prevent winterkill on putting greens.

ABSTRACT Drip irrigation displaces soil air at the emitter and transiently depresses dissolved oxygen (DO) in the wetted root zone, and recovery is slow in fine‐textured, slightly saline soils. Whether aeration of the irrigation stream can be combined with nitrogen (N) management to raise water productivity while safeguarding grain quality in winter ...

Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (a w); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress
