Evaluating Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass seeding ratios for sod grown on plastic production

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Sod grown on plastic (SOP) is a sod established on a thin layer of growing medium atop a plastic sheet. It can be harvested with minimal damage to the roots, thereby reducing transplant shock. Kentucky bluegrass (KBG; Poa pratensis L.) is a commonly used cool‐season turfgrass species in sod production and sports fields. However, KBG is slow to

Wear stress of creeping bentgrass as affected by pigmented phosphonate fungicides

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Wear stress can negatively impact the quality of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) putting greens. Phosphonate fungicides formulated with proprietary pigments often include label language indicating plant health benefits, such as alleviating abiotic and biotic stresses.

Timing of cultural and chemical methods to remove perennial ryegrass overseeded in bermudagrass

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) is a warm‐season grass that is often overseeded with cool‐season perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in the fall to provide green cover. Overseeded bermudagrass is desirable from late fall to early spring; however, turfgrass managers face challenges removing it in the spring and summer months.

Tissue biomechanical strength, wear resistance and recovery in C4 turfgrass species: physiological and morphological factors and innovative evaluation techniques.

, 2011
Turfgrass wear effects are known to be the sum of soil compaction and plant tissue injury. As such, tissue intrinsic resistance to several mechanical factors, including traction stress, is a decisive in determining the wear resistance of a turfgrass ...
