Germination Requirements and Management Implications for Kyllinga gracillima (False Green Kyllinga)

Weed Biology and Management, Volume 26, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding weed biology, particularly factors influencing seed germination, can help develop effective weed management strategies. This research evaluated the effects of temperature, light, and water stress on the germination of Kyllinga gracillima (false green kyllinga). Seeds collected in Indiana (IN) and New Jersey (NJ) were subjected to

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),

Scaling Up of a Lightweight Aggregates System Based on Recovery Raw Materials and With Fertilisation Capacity: From Laboratory Prototype to Semi‐Industrial Production

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
Improved glass meltability enabled semi‐industrial prototyping of a residue‐derived PK fertiliser. Firing produced mechanically stable micropellets and induced partial vitrification, pore‐network reorganisation, delayed P release, but restricted K availability; 6‐month field trials on turfgrass and Photinia supported agronomic feasibility.

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 ...

Greenhouse Gas Flux Response in Biochar‐ and Compost‐Amended Lawn Soils Under Simulated Water Saturation Conditions

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding greenhouse gas emission dynamics in lawn soils is important for improving climate change mitigation strategies in urban and suburban landscapes. In this greenhouse mesocosm study, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes were measured from 12 turfgrass soil columns arranged in an unreplicated ...

Ecological Restoration of a Cultivated Wetland to Enhance Nitrogen Retention in a Rapidly Developing Watershed

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract For much of the coastal United States, water quality continues to worsen due to excess nitrogen (N) from agricultural production and urban development. Restoration of freshwater wetlands, especially those connected to streams (i.e., fluvial wetlands), is a promising management option for curtailing watershed inputs of N to coastal embayments ...

Ecohydrologic Processes Modify Urban Rainfall Intensification in Land‐Atmosphere Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Ecohydrologic processes influence urban water and energy cycles including convective rainfall. Coupled land‐atmosphere models, however, lack fine‐scale representation of urban ecohydrology processes. This study integrates these processes into ensemble land‐atmosphere simulations to assess changes in convective rainfall in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Effect of Nitrogen-fixing Microorganisms and Amino Acid-based Biostimulants on Perennial Ryegrass

HortTechnology, 2020
Due to restrictions on pesticide and nitrogen use in high-input European agricultural systems, many of the biostimulants used in horticulture are being incorporated into turfgrass management programs—although often with little understanding.

Comparing Dislodgeable 2,4-D Residues across Athletic Field Turfgrass Species and Time. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
2,4-dimethylamine salt (2,4-D) is an herbicide commonly applied on athletic fields for broadleaf weed control that can dislodge from treated turfgrass. Dislodge potential is affected by numerous factors, including turfgrass canopy conditions. Building on

Effects of spring dead spot and winter injury on athletic fields: I—Surface characteristics

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Spring dead spot (SDS) is the most destructive fungal disease affecting hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy] in the transition zone, producing sunken patches that disrupt athletic field uniformity.
