Abstract Population growth intensifies the production of waste from agricultural and industrial sources, among others, directly impacting soil and water resources. The use of techniques involving magnetic field applications has been investigated as a potential approach to improve soil–water interactions, although its effects are still not fully ...

Leaf economics and tissue turnover dynamics in four perennial C4 grasses
Abstract Warm‐season perennial grasses are important components of pasture systems in the United States, yet their functional characteristics and relationships with productive attributes remain poorly understood. This study evaluated tissue flow dynamics and leaf economic traits in four C4 forage grasses: eastern gamagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides (L.) L.

Seeding rate and reseeding potential of ball clover in binary mixtures with annual ryegrass
Abstract Legumes can form symbiotic associations with rhizobia and fix atmospheric nitrogen (N), contributing N to forage systems when grown in mixtures with non‐N‐fixing species. Ball clover (BC; Trifolium nigrescens Viv.) is a cool‐season annual legume with strong reseeding potential due to its production of hard seed.

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 Sod is an important specialty crop used to establish turfgrass and to control soil erosion in new construction and roadsides. Most sod farms in the northern U.S. grow Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.), but recent research indicates potential for growing various low‐input grasses, such as fine fescue taxa (Festuca L. spp.).
