Abstract Dollar spot (caused by Clarireedia spp.) is the most commonly occurring turfgrass disease on golf courses in North America, and current disease control programs rely on frequent fungicide applications. The escalating occurrence of fungicide resistance in Clarireedia spp.

Abstract In turfgrass breeding, drought resistance is a primary trait for improvement due to scarcity and reduced quality of water for irrigation. Therefore, in 2010, the turfgrass breeding programs at six public universities joined efforts to address these challenges by cross evaluating breeding lines for the most economically significant warm‐season ...

Freeze tolerance differs between two ecotypes of Paspalum vaginatum (Poaceae)
Morphological and physiological responses to freezing were evaluated in two ecotypes of the perennial turfgrass Paspalum vaginatum. Leaf extension rate, number of active meristems, leaf water potential and net photosynthesis were measured on plants of ...

Soil nitrification (microbial oxidation of ammonium to nitrate) can lead to nitrogen leaching and environmental pollution. A number of plant species are able to suppress soil nitrifiers by exuding inhibitors from roots, a process called biological ...

Abstract In addition to cultural practices, dollar spot disease management requires frequent application of fungicides. Demethylation inhibitor (DMIs) fungicides are applied repeatedly to manage dollar spot in turfgrass systems. This facilitates reduction in DMI fungicide sensitivity among Clarireedia spp. populations. The objectives of this study were

Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) is a warm-season and perennial turfgrass and is known for its cadmium (Cd)-stress tolerance. Here, a Phosphoproteomics analysis was performed to examine the key proteins relating to Cd tolerance in seashore paspalum.

ABSTRACT Enteric methane (eCH4) is a major environmental pollutant emitted by ruminants. To target mitigation measures, it is necessary to accurately estimate GHG emissions from livestock farming. Until now, milk‐producing farms in the peri‐urban areas of South Benin are pasture‐based systems, and have been largely neglected by international research ...

Systemic insecticide reduced the Antonina graminis densities regardless of the N fertilizer dose. High nitrogen fertilizer application maintained acceptable turfgrass quality. The reduction in A. graminis densities improved with increasing nitrogen fertilizer dose.

Salinity-affected and heavy metal-contaminated soils limit the growth of glycophytic plants. Identifying genes responsible for superior tolerance to salinity and heavy metals in halophytes has great potential for use in developing salinity- and Cd ...
