Factors influencing wintering turfgrass field use in Atlantic brant

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Atlantic brant Branta bernicla hrota increasingly use turfgrass fields, such as baseball fields and golf courses, throughout their wintering range. Most studies have focused on their primary food source, submerged aquatic vegetation, while studies of other goose species worldwide have examined field use in different contexts, including agricultural ...

GROWING GREEN IN US SUBURBIA: Property Value, Race and Domestic Landscaping Aesthetics in Mid‐Century America

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Much of the current popular and academic literature on the provision of green spaces is dominated by the assumption that ‘nature’ is an unalloyed positive, and that socioeconomic and racial exclusion from access to green spaces is a problem of unequal spatial distribution rather than of the form and content of particular urban designs.

Genome-wide association for multiple quantitative traits in forage oat germplasm based on specific length amplified fragment sequencing

Frontiers in Plant Science
Oats (Avena sativa L.) is an ideal forage species due to its excellent production performance, high nutritional value, and robust adaptability. In the present study, we analyzed plant height (PH), panicle length (PL), stem diameter (SD), node number (NN),

Estimating Net Primary Production of Turfgrass in an Urban-Suburban Landscape with QuickBird Imagery

Remote Sensing, 2012
Vegetation is a basic component of urban-suburban environments with significant area coverage. As a major vegetation type in US cities, urban turfgrass provides a range of important ecological services.

Response of Kentucky Bluegrass Turfgrass to Plant Growth Regulators

Agronomy, 2023
Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are widely used in turfgrass management. This study aimed to find the influence of different rates of PGRs on Kentucky bluegrass visual quality.

Rolling after the application of a contact fungicide does not reduce efficacy on putting greens

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Golf course superintendents are often challenged by labor shortages and must find creative ways to complete maintenance tasks, such as rolling putting greens immediately after a fungicide application, before golfers arrive. However, there is concern that rolling immediately after a fungicide application could reduce its efficacy. The objective

Combined effects of lance nematode populations and use of plant growth regulators on creeping bentgrass putting greens

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used to optimize turfgrass growth, reduce management inputs, and potentially mitigate diseases. However, golf course superintendents have reported anecdotal evidence linking increased PGR‐induced phytotoxicity with high populations of lance nematodes (Hoplolaimus galeatus).

Sunlight, LED and HPS lighting modulate Bacillus mycoides response to shade stress in perennial ryegrass

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research
Aim of study: To investigate the combined effects of supplemental lighting technologies, light-emitting diode (LED) and high-pressure sodium (HPS), perennial ryegrass cultivars, and Bacillus mycoides inoculation on early turfgrass establishment under ...

Alternative covering approaches to protect ultradwarf bermudagrass putting greens from winterkill

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
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.

Evaluation of fine fescue taxa for sod production: Tensile strength, harvest timing, and comparisons to conventional cool‐season species

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
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.).
