Combining Trinexapac‐Ethyl with a Soil Surfactant Reduces Bermudagrass Irrigation Requirements [PDF]
Core Ideas We describe the use of a plant growth regulator and a soil surfactant for water conservation. We investigated whether the beneficial effects of a surfactant and a plant growth regulator on drought stressed bermudagrass were enhanced when applied in combination versus individually.

Potassium fertilization effects on dollar spot of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass
Abstract The effect of potassium on dollar spot of annual bluegrass (ABG; Poa annua L. forma reptans (Hausskn.) T. Koyama) and creeping bentgrass (CBG; Agrostis stolonifera L.) is poorly understood. Two field trials were conducted in 2020 and 2021 to determine the effect of K fertilization on dollar spot of ABG and CBG turf grown on a sand mat layer ...

Optimizing ethephon application timing for ‘Meyer’ zoysiagrass seedhead suppression
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp. Willd.) is a desirable, low‐input turfgrass species used on golf courses. However, prolific zoysiagrass seedhead production in the spring can increase golf course maintenance costs and reduce aesthetics. Previous research demonstrates that a single autumn ethephon application can suppress zoysiagrass seedhead ...

Effects of ethephon on growth and morphology of perennial grasses [PDF]
In 1880, von Sachs first popularized the concept of chemical messengers that were synthesized by the plant and then translocated throughout it to control the growth and formation of plant organs.

Abstract Warm‐season turfgrasses, especially hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers × Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy), continue to be widely used on golf course putting greens in tropical and subtropical climates globally and are also gaining popularity in the transition zone region of the United States.

Is there a relationship between clipping weight and volume on golf course fairways?
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are regularly used on golf courses to reduce mowing requirements. PGR efficacy is commonly assessed via measurements of clipping weight; however, this process is time consuming and requires specialized equipment. Golf course superintendents have started to evaluate PGR efficacy via measurements of clipping volume.

Management strategies for preventing and recovering from bermudagrass winterkill
Abstract Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp. Rich) is a warm‐season grass that is widely planted throughout tropical, sub‐tropical, and even temperate climates, and it generally requires fewer inputs than most cool‐season turfgrasses. In recent years, the area of adaptation for bermudagrass has progressively expanded to cooler climates due to the development of
