While the root-associated microbial community helps confer stress tolerance in the host plant, it is still largely unknown how the microbiota varies with plant cultivars under water stress. The study aimed to characterize drought-responsive bacteria and fungi in the roots and rhizosphere of different tall fescue cultivars. Intact grass-soil cores were collected from six cultivars grown in a field trial under no-irrigation for 3 years. Tall fescue under irrigation was also sampled from an adjacent area as the contrast. Bacterial and fungal communities in roots, rhizosphere, and bulk soil were examined for abundance, diversity, and composition using quantitative-PCR and high-throughput amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA gene and ITS regions, respectively. Differences in microbial community composition and structure between non-irrigated and irrigated samples were statistically significant in all three microhabitats. No-irrigation enriched Actinobacteria in all three microhabitats, but mainly enriched Basidiomycota in the root endosphere and only Glomeromycota in bulk soil. Tall fescue cultivars slightly yet significantly modified endophytic microbial communities. Cultivars showing better adaptability to drought encompassed more relatively abundant Actinobacteria, Basidiomycota, or Glomeromycota in roots and the rhizosphere. PICRUSt2-based predictions revealed that the relative abundance of functional genes in roots related to phytohormones, antioxidant enzymes, and nutrient acquisition was enhanced under no-irrigation. Significant associations between Streptomyces and putative drought-ameliorating genes underscore possible mechanics for microbes to confer tall fescue with water stress tolerance. This work sheds important insight into the potential use of endophytic microbes for screening drought-adaptive genotypes and cultivars.}, journal={FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY}, author={Hu, Jialin and Miller, Grady and Shi, Wei}, year={2023}, month={Jan} }

Crop coefficients (K c ) have traditionally been utilized to assist in reducing irrigation by comparing reference evapotranspiration (ET o ) to actual evapotranspiration (ET a ) of specific crops. However, K c values are most relevant during times of nonlimiting conditions and do not quantify the amount turfgrasses restrict evapotranspiration (ET) under moderate drought stress. Stress coefficients (K s ) estimate water needs while maintaining minimally acceptable turfgrass quality. The objective of this study was to derive K s values for four bermudagrass ( Cynodon spp.) cultivars managed in the transition zone. Direct measurements of actual evapotranspiration were made through weighing lysimetry during a 2‐year field study. Experimental units were allowed to naturally dry down near wilting point and maintained at a steady level of soil moisture to calculate K s for each cultivar. A lower K s value indicates increased turfgrass tolerance to water stress; whereas a K s value ≥1 suggests higher soil moisture levels are required to sustain turfgrass quality. ‘TifTuf’, ‘Latitude 36’ and ‘Tifway’ were the best performing cultivars with mean K s values of 0.747, 0.766, and 0.796, respectively. ‘Celebration’ had the highest K s value of 0.944. The results indicate certain bermudagrass cultivars can maintain quality with less soil water, and the reduced water requirements may be used to schedule efficient irrigation applications.}, number={1}, journal={CROP FORAGE & TURFGRASS MANAGEMENT}, author={Ketchum, Cory and Miller, Grady and Pinnix, Garland}, year={2023}, month={Jun} }

Still, it is largely unknown what microbes and potential functions are involved in sustaining turfgrass, the major component of urban/suburban landscapes, under drought. We examined microbial responses to water deficits in bulk soil, rhizosphere, and root endosphere of bermudagrass by applying evapotranspiration (ET)-based dynamic irrigation twice per week during the growing season to create six treatments (0%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%, and 120% ET) and respective drought-stressed soil conditions. Bacterial and fungal communities were analyzed via marker gene amplicon sequencing and thereafter drought-reshaped potential functions of the bacterial community were projected. Slight yet significant microbial responses to irrigation treatments were observed in all three microhabitats. The root endophytic bacterial community was most responsive to water stress. No-irrigation primarily increased the relative abundance of root endophytic Actinobacteria, especially the genus Streptomyces. Irrigation at ≤40% ET increased the relative abundances of PICRUSt2-predicted functional genes encoding 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid deaminase, superoxide dismutase, and chitinase in root endosphere. Our data suggest that the root endophytic Actinobacteria are likely the key players to improve bermudagrass fitness under drought by modulating phytohormone ethylene production, scavenging reactive oxygen species, or ameliorating nutrient acquisition.}, number={5}, journal={FEMS MICROBIOLOGY ECOLOGY}, author={Hu, Jialin and Cyle, K.

Pers.) is a widely grown warm‐season turfgrass species characterized by a dense, deep‐rooted canopy and high levels of traffic tolerance. However, most cultivars have poor shade tolerance, which limits the use of these grasses in partly‐shaded areas. The identification of new sources of genetic resistance to shade will expand the germplasm pool available to breeders for developing improved bermudagrass cultivars. In this study, 24 common bermudagrass accessions recently introduced from South Africa were evaluated for their ability to persist under shade. Entries were established in a randomized complete block design with three replications at the Lake Wheeler Turfgrass Field Lab (Raleigh, NC) in the spring of 2019. Following full green‐up in summer 2020, entries were evaluated for performance under full sun, and then a 63% shade cloth was installed over the plots. Traits evaluated under shade included: turfgrass quality, turfgrass density, genetic color, ground coverage, turfgrass regrowth and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). A turfgrass performance index (TPI) was calculated to identify the top performers across all traits. Under full sun, seven accessions had comparable performance with ‘Celebration’ and ‘TifTuf’ across traits. Under shade, ‘Stil03’, ‘Q 47620’, ‘TifGrand’, ‘WIN10F’, Celebration, and TifTuf exhibited the highest TPI. Accessions with superior shade tolerance identified in this study represent novel germplasm that can be used in future breeding efforts to improve shade tolerance in bermudagrass.}, journal={International Turfgrass Society Research Journal}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Melgar, Esdras M.

These organizations desire dense vegetation that has slow vertical growth and minimal weed invasion once established, and zoysiagrass ( Zoysia spp.) is a suitable species for this use. The objective of this study was to compare fall versus spring plantings for establishing zoysiagrass on North Carolina roadsides. ‘Crowne’ (sprigs) and ‘Compadre’ (sprigs and seed) zoysiagrasses ( Zoysia japonica Steud.) were planted in fall 2017 (September, October, November) and spring 2018 (March, April, May) in Lenoir and Yadkin Counties, NC. Data collection was initiated in summer of 2018 and continued through July 2019. The mean percentage of zoysiagrass cover was recorded individually for each establishment timing and method. Zoysiagrass planted with seed achieved coverage quicker than sprigging for all monthly plantings. In Yadkin, March and May seedings achieved 95 and 98% coverage in September 2018, respectively; whereas Compadre's sprigging coverage was 67%. In Lenoir, seed planted in November 2017 and March 2018 achieved 32 and 35% cover by September 2018, respectively, whereas sprig plantings showed <6% coverage. Coverage was faster for spring‐planted materials, but after one calendar year, fall and spring seed planting had similar coverage.

Cultural practices have been shown to help alleviate the pressure of SBD. The objectives of this study were to detail the impacts of N fertility, soil water content, and hollow‐ and solid‐tine cultivation on creeping bentgrass quality. Cultural treatments included four N rates (97, 195, 293, and 391 kg ha −1 yr −1 ), four hollow‐tine core cultivation programs (6.4 mm diam. tines two times yr −1 , 9.5 mm diam. tines two and three times yr −1 , and a non‐cored control), two soil water content levels (low and high), and two summer solid‐tine spiking cultivation treatments (spiked and not spiked). Visual turfgrass quality was measured. A N rate greater than 195 kg ha −1 was needed to maintain acceptable turfgrass quality. High soil water content consistently provided better summer turfgrass quality compared to low soil water content conditions. Nitrogen fertility and soil water content interacted where higher levels of both resulted in the best quality ratings. Hollow‐core cultivation reduced turfgrass quality at the lower N rates; whereas, solid‐tine spiking had no effect on turfgrass quality.

Strategic compost application to disturbed, degraded urban soil may provide benefits to soil properties. This review compared twenty-five peer-reviewed studies that evaluated changes in soil bulk density, infiltration rate, hydraulic conductivity, and water retention where compost was incorporated into urban soils. A wide range of compost rates and incorporation depths were evaluated in these studies across many soil types. Compost incorporation generally reduced bulk density, enhanced infiltration and hydraulic conductivity, and increased water content and plant available water, compared to unamended controls. In the four studies on runoff water quality, compost incorporation often resulted in higher initial nutrient content in runoff water, but also enhanced grass growth and reduced sediment loss. Few studies evaluated multiple compost application rates or incorporation depths, and the ways in which compost application rates were reported varied widely between studies making it difficult to directly compare them. Four studies investigated the long-term effects of compost incorporation, and there was no clear pattern of why some soils display enhanced physical properties over time and others do not. Compost was largely reported to have a positive effect on degraded urban soils. Little research has focused on the longevity of compost in urban soils after one application, and thus, this would be a valuable topic of further investigation.}, journal={Journal of Environmental Management}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Kranz, Christina N. and McLaughlin, Richard A. and Johnson, Amy and Miller, Grady and Heitman, Joshua L.}, year={2020}, month={May}, pages={110209} }

Therefore, it is important to consider concurrent water use potential of popular grass species such as tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt-Davy]. The primary objective of this field study was to compare water use characteristics of ‘TifTuf’ a recently released bermudagrass cultivar with reported drought tolerance with a commonly planted tall fescue/bluegrass mix in North Carolina. A secondary objective was to quantify minimum irrigation requirements during establishment from sod when planted during spring and summer. Direct measurements of actual evapotranspiration (ETa) were made through weighing of non-water stressed lysimeters planted with ‘Triple Threat’ tall fescue and TifTuf hybrid bermudagrass. Actual evapotranspiration rates during the first 14 days after planting (DAP) were 3.3 and 4.3 mm d−1 for bermudagrass and tall fescue, respectively, averaged across spring plantings. Tall fescue ETa 14 DAP was no different during summer establishment, while bermudagrass ETa increased to 4.3 mm d−1. After 14 DAP, cumulative bermudagrass ETa was 44% less than tall fescue when established in spring. Cumulative bermudagrass ETa was similar to tall fescue (3% less) following summer establishment. Both grasses provided acceptable turf quality (TQ ≥ 6), when planted during spring, unlike tall fescue which resulted in unacceptable TQ following summer establishment. Results indicate the use of TifTuf bermudagrass can provide acceptable quality in the landscape while significantly reducing turfgrass water use compared to Triple Threat tall fescue when adapted to localized conditions.}, journal={AGRICULTURAL WATER MANAGEMENT}, author={Pinnix, Garland D. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2019}, month={Aug} }

Accurate turfgrass crop coefficients are critical when scheduling irrigation based on reference evapotranspiration (ETo). Currently, locally derived turfgrass crop coefficients are lacking in the transition zone.

Here, the high throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was used to evaluate how long-term defoliation management and grass growth habits (propagation types and photosynthetic pathways) modulated the soil microbial community. The investigation included three cool-season C3 grasses (creeping bentgrass, Kentucky bluegrass, and tall fescue) and three warm-season C4 grasses (bermudagrass, St. Augustinegrass, and zoysiagrass). Creeping bentgrass and bermudagrass were managed as putting greens with a lower mowing height; tall fescue spread in a tussock manner via tiller production whereas other grasses propagated in a creeping manner via rhizomes and/or stolons. Ordination analysis showed that both bacterial and fungal communities were primarily separated between putting green and non-putting green systems; and so were N-cycle gene relative abundances, with the putting greens being greater in N mineralization but lower in nitrification. Compared to warm-season grasses, cool-season grasses slightly and yet significantly enhanced the relative abundances of Chloroflexi, Verrucomicrobia, and Glomeromycota. Tall fescue yielded significantly greater bacterial and fungal richness than non-tussock grasses. As the main explanatory soil property, pH only contributed to < 18% of community compositional variations among turfgrass systems.

To maximize aesthetic quality, turf colorants must be applied when certain conditions are present. The objective of this field study was to evaluate the presence of leaf moisture during turf colorant application to dormant turfgrass and its effect on measured color parameters (color, intensity, and hue angle). Four turf colorants were applied to wet and dry (i.e., irrigated and non-irrigated) dormant ‘Tifsport’ hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.)

Average colorant color and intensity ratings were 14 and 10% higher when dormant turfgrass was irrigated prior to colorant application, respectively. Color and intensity ratings were unaffected by leaf wetness following applications of Endurant Premium and Green Turf Paint applications. However, color and intensity ratings increased by 38 and 26%, respectively, when turfgrass was irrigated prior to the application of Green Lawnger and Ultradwarf Super. Negative effects (i.e., streaking) commonly seen during application of turf colorants higher in viscosity were alleviated as a result of pre-application irrigation. Hue angles quantified from digital images were unaffected by the presence of leaf wetness during colorant application.

Numerous products are marketed as Fe chelates but few have been confirmed to increase Fe solubility in soils. The objective of this study was to determine the solubility of Fe from 10 common Fe fertilizers applied to 11 North American soils. Brookston, Cecil, Fuquay, Hallandale, Marietta, Marvyn, Nunn, Pinavetes, Stephenville, Troup, and Zook soils were incubated with soluble Fe applied as sulfate; glucoheptonate; polysaccharide; humate; oxide; citrate; 1,2 dicarboxyethyl D,L aspartic acid (IDHA); ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA); and ethylenediamine‐ o ‐hydroxyphenylacetic acid (EDDHA).

In each soil 1 h after application, greater than 95% of applied Fe was rendered insoluble from sulfate, glucoheptonate, polysaccharide, humate, and oxide. The chelates FeEDTA, FeDTPA, and FeEDDHA resulted in increased Fe solubility compared with untreated soil within each sampling time in most soils with Fe solubility at 21 d ranging from 5 to 40% of applied Fe. The natural organic chelate (NOC), FeIDHA, increased Fe solubility in 3 of the 11 soils for 1 d, but soluble Fe from FeIDHA declined to that of untreated soils thereafter.

Turf colorant applications that occur in colder temperatures increases the risk of colorant transfer onto absorbent materials. Turf colorant selection is imperative as certain products are able to adhere to the turfgrass canopy better than others. Turf colorants are used to provide green color to turfgrasses during times of stress and dormancy. When used to treat dormant turfgrass, proper application timing is imperative to increase functionality. The objective of this field study was to evaluate effects of air temperature on colorant transfer onto an absorbent material. Seven turfgrass colorants were applied to dormant ‘Tifway’ hybrid bermudagrass [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy] and ‘El Toro’ zoysiagrass ( Zoysia japonica Steud.) at three air temperatures (25, 45, and 60°F). Colorant transfer for each air temperature treatment was sampled at 1, 2, 4, and 7 days after application (DAA) by dragging an absorbent cloth the length of treated turfgrass plots. When applied at 25°F, colorant transfer was 2.2 and 2.3 times greater than the amount transferred at 45 and 60°F, respectively. Regreen, Fairway, Perennial Ryegrass, and Premium all exceeded the threshold for colorant transfer (0.030 reflectance) 7 DAA when applied at 25°F. Spaint was the only product to have an acceptable measure of colorant transfer across air temperatures. Additionally, Regreen did not have an acceptable level of colorant transfer at any point during evaluations. When applied at 45 and 60°F, colorant transfer for Spaint, Green Turf Paint, and Green Dye Turf were at least 5 and 6 times lower, respectively, compared to other colorants. Data implied increased potential for colorant transfer when applied at 25°F compared to 45 or 60°F and illustrate variability in product transfer potential.}, number={1}, journal={CROP FORAGE & TURFGRASS MANAGEMENT}, author={Pinnix, Garland D. and McCauley, Raymond K. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2018}, month={Jun} }

As new zoysiagrass ( Zoysia spp.) cultivars are released, field studies on N responses and mowing heights conducted over several years under different environments are needed to determine best management practices. This study was initiated to (i) characterize a general response (color, density, turf quality) to N fertilization rate, mowing height, and their interactions among zoysiagrass cultivars; and (ii) establish appropriate mowing height and N rate recommendations for each of the cultivars studied. Four Japanese lawngrass cultivars ( Z. japonica Steud.) and four manilagrass cultivars ( Z. matrella L. Merr.) were evaluated in Citra, FL, for 4 yr and in Raleigh, NC, for 2 yr under three N rates (73, 171, and 268 kg ha −1 yr −1 ) and two mowing heights (2.5 and 5.0 cm for Japanese lawngrass; 0.6 and 1.2 cm for manilagrass). Genetic differences were evident among the zoysiagrass cultivars. Nitrogen rate had a greater impact on most of the observed characteristics when the grass was actively growing, but the effect of mowing height was only significant during spring green‐up.

It is essential to understand underlying factors controlling water loss to more precisely predict irrigation requirements and develop new strategies for improving effective use of water. In this study, we investigate two key components of potential water loss from a bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) system that have not previously been examined in detail: 1) water loss in darkness, and 2) water loss through evaporation directly from the soil. The experiments were conducted in controlled environment chambers with intact cores from the field. An automated gravimetric system and soil moisture probes allowed precise measurements of water loss over ranges of vapor pressure deficits (VPD). The gravimetric and soil probe results indicated that substantial evapotranspiration occurred in darkness, at rates 40 to 60% of that in the light across VPDs. Simulations using field weather data from dry and humid environments indicated nighttime water loss rates would be expected to be 30 to 40% of that in the light. Using cores treated with a fast-acting, desiccating herbicide that eliminated transpiration but kept core resistances intact, evaporation directly from the soil surface was estimated to account for 40% of total water loss in the light and 60 to 70% in the dark. The results, collectively, indicated that water loss in darkness must be separately accounted for to accurately estimate daily evapotranspiration totals and irrigation requirements. Furthermore, because of the very high potential for evaporative water loss in the light and dark, efforts to improve water use efficiencies in the turfgrass system should include strategies that regulate both transpiration by the plant and evaporation from the soil surface.}, journal={AGRICULTURAL AND FOREST METEOROLOGY}, author={Rosas-Anderson, Pablo and Taggart, Matthew J. and Heitman, Joshua L. and Miller, Grady L. and Sinclair, Thomas R. and Rufty, Thomas W.}, year={2018}, month={Oct}, pages={73–79} }

A commonly used method relies on commercial software package SigmaScan Pro to quantify mean hue angle, saturation, and brightness values from turf images, and to calculate a dark green color index as the measure of color. To enable turf image analysis to function on an open‐source platform, a method was developed within ImageJ to batch process turf images for color parameters. This Java‐based ImageJ plugin quantifies hue angle, saturation, and brightness values and calculates a dark green color index. In addition, information on the variability of these color parameters can be simultaneously acquired. This new method was used to quantify color parameters of turf images collected from field plots of tall fescue ( Schedonorus arundinacea Shreb. Dumort.), Kentucky bluegrass ( Poa pratensis L.), ryegrass ( Lolium ssp.), hybrid bermudagrass ( Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy), and creeping bentgrass ( Agrostis stolonifera L.). While color parameter values differed little between ImageJ and SigmaScan, the time saved in processing images using ImageJ was considerable. Aside from software, analysis of color parameters acquired from the five turfgrass species indicated that hue angle alone can adequately measure turf color in digital images. Results also demonstrated that, in addition to light source, camera settings should remain fixed during photo capture to avoid introducing errors.

In this study, two South African hybrid (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy) bermudagrass accessions (‘WIN10F’ and ‘STIL03’) and three standard cultivars (Celebration, Tifgrand, and ‘Tifway’) were compared for their ability to persist under 63% shade, two mowing heights, two trinexapac-ethyl (TE) treatments, and two nitrogen fertility rates. The experimental design was a strip-strip-split plot and digital image analysis was used to measure percent turfgrass cover, percent turfgrass spread after cup-cutter removal, and percent turfgrass re-growth after divot formation. Turf quality was measured using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Differences among genotypes, TE treatments, and mowing heights were observed across all response variables in 2014 and 2015. Differences in fertility treatments were observed in NDVI, percent turfgrass growth, and percent turfgrass recovery within and across years. Significant differences were observed for the interactions between entry by plant growth regulator (PGR) treatments, entry by mowing height, and mowing height by PGR. These results suggest shade management recommendations should be dependent on genotype and site-specific considerations. The development and implementation of specific management plans for certain bermudagrass varieties will contribute to the more widespread use of Cynodon spp. in shaded environments.}, journal={Urban Forestry & Urban Greening}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Dunne, Jeffrey C. and Miller, Grady L. and Arellano, Consuelo and Brandenburg, Rick L. and Schoeman, A. and Milla-Lewis, Susana R.}, year={2017}, month={Aug}, pages={169–177} }

Daily water loss and canopy temperature were measured every 24 h using gravimetric techniques and an infrared digital thermometer, while lab experiments examined the thickness of white and black paint on the leaf surface. In nonpainted bermudagrass canopies, daily water loss increased ( P ≤ 0.0001) with canopy temperature from 29 to 36°C, while in painted bermudagrass canopies it decreased ( P ≤ 0.0001) as canopy temperature increased from 29 to 40°C. Yellow and white paint impacted transpiration and canopy temperature the least, while black and blue caused the greatest reductions in transpiration and highest increases in canopy temperature. Cross‐sections of painted Tifway indicate that paint may limit evaporative cooling by clogging stomata. Increased absorption of radiant energy by paint coupled with limited evaporative cooling result in increased heat stress and decreased turfgrass performance in painted canopies.}, number={4}, journal={Crop Science}, publisher={Crop Science Society of America}, author={Reynolds, William Casey and Miller, Grady L. and Livingston, David P. and Rufty, Thomas W.}, year={2016}, pages={2016} }

Inorganic soil amendments are used to increase moisture and nutrient retention and may influence N and P leaching. This study was conducted to determine whether N and P leaching could be reduced using soil amendments and surfactant‐modified soil amendments. Treatments included a control (sand), sand–peat, zeolite, calcined clay, hexadecyltrimethylammonium–zeolite, and hexadecyltrimethylammonium–calcined clay. Lysimeters were filled with a 30‐cm rootzone layer of sand–peat (85:15 by volume), below which a 5‐cm treatment layer of amendments was placed. A solution of NO 3 –N, NH 4 –N, and orthophosphate‐P (2300, 2480, and 4400 μg mL −1 , respectively) was injected at the top of each lysimeter, and leachate was collected using an autocollector set to collect a 10‐mL sample every min until four pore volumes were collected. Uncoated amendments, sand, and peat had no influence on NO 3 –N retention, whereas hexadecyltrimethylammonium‐coated amendments reduced NO 3 –N leaching to below detectable limits. Both coated and uncoated amendments reduced NH 4 –N leaching, with zeolite reducing NH 4 –N leached to near zero regardless of hexadecyltrimethylammonium coating. Pure sand resulted in a 13% reduction of applied orthophosphate‐P leaching, whereas peat contributed to orthophosphate‐P leaching. Surfactant‐modified amendments reduced orthophosphate‐P leaching by as much as 97%. Surfactant‐modified soil amendments can reduce NO 3 –N, NH 4 –N, and orthophosphate‐P leaching and, thus, may be a viable option for removing leached N and P before they enter surface or ground waters. Core Ideas Soil amendments did not reduce NO 3 –N leaching. Modified soil amendments reduced NO 3 –N, NH 4 –N, and orthophosphate‐P leaching. Zeolite was most effective at reducing NH 4 –N leaching.}, number={5}, journal={JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY}, author={Shaddox, Travis W. and Kruse, Jason K. and Miller, Grady L. and Nkedi-Kizza, Peter and Sartain, Jerry B.}, year={2016}, pages={1549–1556} }

The objective of this study was to quantify actual evapotranspiration (ETa) and to develop crop coefficients (Kc) for four warm-season turfgrass species, namely ‘Tifway’ bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. x Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt-Davy), ‘Empire’ zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.), ‘Floratam’ St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walter) Kuntze], and ‘Argentine’ bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge). Crop coefficients were derived by dividing ETa (measured directly from lysimeter weight change over 24 to 72-h periods) by reference evapotranspiration (ETo) calculated from the ASCE–EWRI Standardized Method using onsite weather station data. Data were collected over three seasons from non-stressed, well-watered turf. For 17 of the 30 measurement periods, Kc did not differ among the 4 species, and on 24 of 30 periods zoysiagrass, bermudagrass, and St. Augustinegrass Kc did not differ from one another. A trend toward elevated Kc was observed in bahiagrass in years 2 and 3, particularly during early spring measurement periods. Kc values for all species fluctuated across seasons and years, peaking to ∼0.8 during active growth periods when vapor pressure deficit and solar radiation were greatest, and declining to ∼0.3 in late fall and winter. Root growth differences among the species appeared to have a stronger relationship to ET rates than did shoot growth rate. Results demonstrated that the commonly recommended warm-season turf coefficient of 0.6, while approximating overall average annual ETa, under-predicted ETa during active growth periods and over-predicted ETa during late fall and winter periods, when turf was slowly growing or quiescent. The results indicate seasonal refinement of Kc values may be needed to more effectively meet consumptive water use requirements of warm-season turfgrasses.}, journal={AGRICULTURAL WATER MANAGEMENT}, author={Wherley, B. and Dukes, M.

The main objective of this study was to quantify the residential irrigation water use in Cary, North Carolina. A subobjective was to develop distributions of monthly reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and gross irrigation requirements (GIRs) for the area using long-term weather data. As part of the subobjective, an investigation was performed to compare daily measured solar radiation with two empirical methods of estimating solar radiation (Rs). The goal of this investigation was to determine the relative accuracy of these methods and to evaluate the impact of using Rs estimates in the computation of ETo and GIR for the Raleigh-Durham area, where Cary is located. Irrigation water use data from 2005 to 2007 for 120 randomly sampled residences were evaluated. The average lawn area of the sampled residences was 713  m2.

Twenty-four residential sites were selected, in clusters of four, representing six geographical areas within the town. Each geographical cluster included one site of each treatment. The treatments were standard irrigation controller with an add-on soil moisture sensor system (SMS); standard irrigation controller with an add-on evapotranspiration-based adjustment system (ET); standard irrigation controller using seasonal runtimes based on historical climate data (ED); and a control group which used a standard irrigation controller with no intervention (CON). Weekly water usage was obtained from irrigation meter readings and turf quality was characterized using a visual rating and a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) meter. Maximum water savings were achieved by the SMS treatment (42% less than CON), followed by ET and ED treatments. No statistical difference in average weekly water use was found between the ET group and the ED group provided with controller run-time guidance. The mean weekly visual turf quality index was highest for the SMS treatment, but only statistically different from the ED group. Average weekly NDVI was greatest for the ED group, although average NDVI values were not statistically different among any of the groups. Although water use was less during the 2009 study period contrasted against the three previous years for those receiving some form of intervention (ED, ET, and SMS), the same trend in water use was found by the CON group, rendering any findings in change in behavior inconclusive. Variability in water application by cooperator groups receiving an intervention decreased in the study period compared to the three previous years, suggesting an impact.}, number={4}, journal={JOURNAL OF IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE ENGINEERING}, author={Nautiyal, M. and Grabow, G.

Research was initiated to determine the effect of calcium silicate on silicon uptake, turf quality, and its residual activity in providing plant available Si in two turfgrass systems. During 2005 and 2006, calcium silicate (CaSi, 12% Si) was applied as a topdressing at eight rates ranging from 0 to 342 kg m−2 to a ‘Tifdwarf’ (Cynodon dactylon × C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy) green in the spring and to the same plots overseeded with ‘Wintergreen’ rough bluegrass (Poa trivialis L.) in the fall. At initiation of the study, dolomitic limestone and magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) was applied to equilibrate calcium across all treatments based on the highest rate of CaSi. Every 28 days, treatments were rated for turf quality and then harvested to determine Si accumulation. One month after applying CaSi in 2005, Si concentration in the leaf tissue of Tifdwarf had increased linearly with increasing rates. This response continued through the months of May, June, July, August, and October with a 9%, 21%, 40%, 22% and 21% increase in Si concentration in the leaf tissue between the control and the 342 kg m−2 rate, respectively. Although the rate response remained, there was an overall drop in average percent Si accumulation in leaf tissue across the treatments beginning three months after the first application. Similar responses were noted with the overseeded rough bluegrass with a 46%, 85%, 69%, 111% and 58% increase in Si concentration in the leaf tissue between the control and the 342 kg m−2 rate, respectively. In contrast to the bermudagrass, over the five month period following application, the residual activity of Si in rough bluegrass remained high, suggesting that rough bluegrass might be a better Si accumulator in comparison to Tifdwarf bermudagrass. The second run of the experiment (2006–2007) and the residual trial had the same response with Si concentration in the leaf tissue increasing as the amount of CaSi applied increased. Although turfgrass quality was not well correlated to CaSi rate for Tifdwarf bermudagrass, there was an increase in quality ratings for rough bluegrass from December 2005 to April 2006.}, number={11}, journal={JOURNAL OF PLANT NUTRITION}, author={Espinosa, Adriana and Miller, Grady L. and Datnoff, Lawrence E.}, year={2013}, month={Sep}, pages={1719–1732} }

Visible light and photosynthesis share the same wavelengths (400–700 nm), and it was hypothesized that alterations in visible light to produce specific colors would lead to reductions in photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and total canopy photosynthesis (TCP). Lab experiments using a spectroradiometer and LICOR 1800‐12 integrating sphere examined the impacts of 10 colors of athletic field paint on PAR as well as wavelengths within PAR. These colors were then applied weekly for 5 wk to ‘Tifway’ bermudagrass [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt Davy], and TCP was measured using a gas exchange system 24 h after each application. Spectroradiometry analyses revealed the significant effects of paint color ( P ≤ 0.001) on reflection, transmission, and absorption of PAR. Lighter colors including white, yellow, orange, and red reflected 47 to 92% of PAR while darker colors including green, black, and dark blue absorbed 87 to 95% of PAR. Accompanying gas exchange measurements revealed that TCP was most negatively correlated with absorption of PAR ( r = −0.959, P ≤ 0.001) and that darker colors negatively impact TCP more than lighter colors. The results clearly indicate that damage to turfgrasses with long‐term painting will be difficult to avoid, and this is particularly true with darker colors of paint.}, number={5}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Reynolds, William Casey and Miller, Grady L. and Rufty, Thomas W.}, year={2013}, pages={2209–2217} }

This column lysimeter study was conducted to examine NO 3 – leaching from two Kentucky bluegrass ( Poa pratensis L.) cultivars differing in NO 3 – uptake capacity. Subsurface soil compaction was included as a second factor. Tillers of Julia and Midnight Kentucky bluegrass, previously identified as having high and low NO 3 – uptake capacity, respectively, were grown in column lysimeters. Each column was filled with Wagram loamy sand with or without a subsurface compaction layer 8.5 cm below the surface. The two cultivars were established and then treated to impose moderate N deficiency. Potassium nitrate was applied in solution at 49 kg N ha –1 followed by daily heavy irrigation. Leachate was collected and analyzed for NO 3 – ‐N. Cumulative N leaching loss of applied N ranged from 2.6 to 19% and 2.8 to 21% for Julia and Midnight, respectively. In two out of three trials, both cultivars absorbed NO 3 – very efficiently in noncompacted soil, with only trace amounts of NO 3 – leaching. While NO 3 – ‐N loss averaged 4.7% of applied N in noncompacted soil across all trials, subsurface soil compaction increased that to 8.9%. Results indicated that despite being identified as more efficient for NO 3 – uptake, NO 3 – leaching from Julia was generally similar to that from Midnight. Soil conditions and differences in root morphology and/or architecture may played a more important role than root uptake capacity in determining NO 3 – leaching from these Kentucky bluegrass genotypes.}, number={4}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Zhang, Chenxi and Miller, Grady L. and Rufty, Thomas W. and Bowman, Daniel C.}, year={2013}, pages={1722–1733} }

It is proposed that selecting turfgrass genotypes with higher NO 3 − absorption abilities could reduce NO 3 − leaching. This study examined the intraspecific difference in NO 3 − absorption among Kentucky bluegrass ( Poa pratensis L.) genotypes and how such a difference affects N absorption when roots are in competition for soil N. A nutrient solution screening procedure was used to identify Kentucky bluegrass genotypes having high vs. low NO 3 − uptake capacity. Tillers of 60 Kentucky bluegrass cultivars were rooted and transferred to a continuous flow solution culture system. After establishment, plants were treated to develop moderate N deficiency. Isotopically labeled ( 15 N) KNO 3 was introduced at high (1 mM) and low (0.05 mM) concentrations to screen for differences in NO 3 − uptake. After a brief uptake period, plants were harvested, dried, and analyzed for 15 N content to determine N uptake rate. There were significant differences among genotypes for uptake rate at both high and low N concentrations. The 60 genotypes exhibited a wide range of uptake rates, with strong correlation between rates at high and low N. The cultivars Julia and Midnight were selected as representing cultivars with efficient and inefficient NO 3 − uptake, respectively. Julia had NO 3 − uptake rates averaging 56% higher than Midnight. A subsequent lysimeter study examined whether higher NO 3 − uptake capacity would translate into increased N absorption under competitive conditions. Tillers of the two cultivars were planted as a mixed stand in soil or sand column lysimeters. After establishment, 15 N‐labeled KNO 3 solution at high (2 or 1mM) and low (0.05mM) concentrations was applied to each column. After an uptake period, individual plants of each cultivar were harvested for 15 N analysis. Results indicated that Julia absorbed 20 to 50% more NO 3 − than Midnight at the high N concentration and 25 to 71% more NO 3 − more than Midnight at the low N concentration. Most differences were statistically significant. This indicates that differences in NO 3 − absorption by Kentucky bluegrass identified in solution culture translate into differences in absorption of soil N.}, number={3}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Zhang, Chenxi and Rufty, Thomas W. and Miller, Grady L. and Bowman, Daniel C.}, year={2013}, month={May}, pages={1179–1188} }

The main objective of this study was to evaluate two types of commercially available irrigation control technologies: one based on evapotranspiration (ET) estimates and the other based on feedback from a soil-moisture sensor (SMS). Irrigation treatments were combinations of controller technology: a timer-based standard controller system (TIM), an add-on (1 set point) SMS system (SMS1), and an evapotranspiration (ET)-based system (ETB), and watering frequency: weekly, twice per week, and daily (1, 2, and 7 days per week, respectively) plus a 10th treatment of an on-demand (2 set point) SMS system (SMS2). Both irrigation efficiency and adequacy were best for the SMS2 treatment when averaged over all three years. The SMS1 treatment provided good irrigation efficiency, but irrigation adequacy suffered, most noticeably with the twice per week treatment. The ET treatment provided good irrigation adequacy, but had the poorest irrigation efficiency. SMS treatments resulted in average water savings of 39% in SMS1 treatments and 24% in the SMS2 treatment compared to the timer-based treatments, whereas the ET treatments applied 11% more water, on average, than the timer-based treatments.

 @article{reynolds_miller_rufty_2012, title={Athletic Field Paint Impacts Light Spectral Quality and Turfgrass Photosynthesis}, volume={52}, ISSN={["0011-183X"]}, DOI={10.2135/cropsci2012.01.0059}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT Athletic field paints are applied to turf surfaces with little or no acute injury. However, field managers notice chronic declines in turfgrass health after repeated applications. This study examines athletic field paint impacts on spectral quality and associated turfgrass photosynthesis. Growth chamber experiments evaluated effects of red and white athletic field paint as well as one, two, three, and four repeated weekly applications on total canopy photosynthesis (TCP) of perennial ryegrass ( Lolium perenne L.). Paint treatments were applied weekly for 6 wk with TCP recorded 24 h after each application using a gas exchange system. Spectroradiometry experiments evaluated reflection, absorption, and transmission of light at various wavelengths based on paint color, dilution, and thickness. Over a six week period all treatments reduced TCP based on color ( P ≤ 0.0001) and dilution ( P ≤ 0.0001). Red no‐dilution paint produced a 75% reduction in TCP over 6 wk while white 1:1 diluted paint only produced a 19% reduction. Spectroradiometry data suggests this is likely due to reductions in photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) with red paint absorbing 51% of incident PAR while transmitting and reflecting 6 and 43%, respectively. White paint transmitted 5% of PAR while reflecting 95%. Alterations in light spectral quality resulting from athletic field paint applications can impact PAR, which may result in reduced turfgrass health.}, number={5}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Reynolds, William Casey and Miller, Grady L. and Rufty, Thomas W.}, year={2012}, month={Sep}, pages={2375–2384} }

Previous research developed an index known as the dark green color index (DGCI) via DIA as an indicator of turf color. The objective of this study was to use DGCI variability to better predict a visual rating (VR) index used to evaluate tall fescue ( Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) color under different irrigation treatments. To develop DGCI statistics, two freeware software packages (Image J and R) were used to extract and process information from digital images. The model to predict VR from DIA was developed and calibrated using candidate DGCI statistical moments from 120 images in a calibration data set using a multiple linear regression procedure. Fitness of calibration and validation models were verified using the adjusted coefficient of determination, root mean square error, and the Mallow's C p statistic. The two‐variable model produced more precise estimates (adjusted R 2 = 0.926 and 0.899) than the model that only used one term in predicting the VR values (adjusted R 2 = 0.879 and 0.843) for calibration and validation sets, respectively. These data suggest incorporating a measure of color uniformity improves the use of DGCI in predicting VR values compared to using only the mean of DGCI values to predict VR values. Model refinements may be needed for other turf species, but current work suggests using additional statistical moments such as SD improves VR estimate precision and accuracy.}, number={5}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Ghali, Ihab E. and Miller, Grady L. and Grabow, Garry L. and Huffman, Rodney L.}, year={2012}, month={Sep}, pages={2365–2374} }

The study is being conducted by North Carolina State University, on properties bordering Duke Energy managed lakes, in North Carolina and South Carolina, that withdraw lake water for landscape irrigation. Assessment of current irrigation water use began in 2009 with a survey to which over 1,400 residences responded (reflecting a 7.4% return rate). Survey results were used to select thirty-six residences (twelve on each of three lakes along the Catawba River) for further evaluation. Water meters with loggers were installed on the main lines of irrigation systems of the selected residences in the summer of 2009 to monitor lake water withdrawals for landscape irrigation under current practices. Two weather stations and four atmometers were also installed in the region to monitor reference evapotransporation during the study. Three types of smart irrigation technologies (two ET-based controllers and one soil-moisture sensor system) were installed at twenty-seven of the study sites at the beginning of the 2010 irrigation season. The technologies were distributed such that each lake had six sites with ET-based controllers, three sites with soil-moisture sensors, and three sites with no intervention, which would serve as a comparison group. Metering of irrigation water withdrawals continued throughout the 2010 irrigation season after installation of smart irrigation technologies. Turf quality assessments were made throughout the year using a visual turf quality rating and a Normalized Difference Vegetative Index (NDVI) obtained with a turf color meter. The study will conclude with data collected in the 2011 irrigation season.}, booktitle={World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2011}, publisher={American Society of Civil Engineers}, author={Vick, Jr., R.

In this transition zone study, we characterized temporal and spatial aspects of OM accumulation, in an attempt to assess the effectiveness of management and to begin to uncover the processes controlling C sequestration. Root zone samples were collected from sand‐based putting greens at 49 golf courses of various ages, generating 212 individual observations. Organic matter accumulated hyperbolically over time in the top 2.5 cm; apparent critical levels of 40 g kg −1 were exceeded within 5 yr. At a depth of 2.5 to 7.6 cm, accumulation was much slower and linear over time, and critical levels were not reached even after 20 yr. Oxygen levels were never depressed more than 15%, indicating that intensive management of the upper soil profile was successfully allowing gas exchange into the root zone. Carbon accumulated in the soil profile hyperbolically, reflecting changes in the large OM pool near the soil surface. The sequestration rate of 59 g m −2 yr −1 over 25 yr was less than that observed by others examining soil under bentgrass greens in different environments. The evidence indicates that OM and C accumulation are strongly influenced by increasing microbial degradation rates as turfgrass systems age.}, number={3}, journal={Agronomy Journal}, publisher={American Society of Agronomy}, author={Carley, Danesha Seth and Goodman, David and Sermons, Shannon and Shi, Wei and Bowman, Dan and Miller, Grady and Rufty, Thomas}, year={2011}, pages={604} }

In October 2008 and June 2009, circular patches of blighted seashore paspalum ranging from 30 cm to >3 m in diameter were observed in fairways, tees, and roughs established with ‘Supreme’ seashore paspalum at Roco Ki Golf Club in Macao, Dominican Republic. Affected patches were initially chlorotic followed by reddish brown necrosis of leaves and leaf sheaths. Reddish brown-to-gray lesions were also observed on leaf sheaths during the early stages of necrosis. During periods of wet or humid weather from June through October, basidiocarps were produced on necrotic plant tissue and identified as Marasmiellus mesosporus Singer (2). Three isolates were obtained by plating symptomatic leaf sheaths that were surface sterilized with a 0.5% NaOCl solution on potato dextrose agar amended with 50 ppm each of streptomycin, chloramphenicol, and tetracycline (PDA+++). Sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of rDNA, obtained from these three isolates and three stipes of basidiocarps, were identical to each other and 99% similar to a M. mesosporus sequence deposited in the NCBI database (Accession No. AB517375). To confirm pathogenicity, a M. mesosporus isolate obtained from symptomatic plant tissue was inoculated onto 6-week-old P. vaginatum (‘Seaspray’) planted (0.5 mg seed/cm 2 ) in 10-cm-diameter pots containing a mixture of 80% sand and 20% reed sedge peat. Two weeks prior to inoculation, the isolate was grown on a sterilized mixture of 100 cm 3 of rye grain, 4.9 ml of CaCO 3 , and 100 ml of water. Infested grains were placed 0.5 cm below the soil surface for inoculation. Pots were inoculated with five infested grains or five sterilized, uninfested grains with three replications of each treatment. After inoculation, pots were placed in a growth chamber with a 12-h photoperiod set to 30°C during the day and 26°C at night. Approximately 20% of plants in inoculated pots were necrotic 7 days postinoculation and this increased to 75% by 21 days postinoculation. Diseased plants in inoculated pots exhibited symptoms similar to those observed in the field. Leaves were initially chlorotic with brown lesions on lower leaf sheaths and eventually turned necrotic, reddish brown, and collapsed. Pots receiving uninfested grains were healthy and showed no symptoms on all rating dates. At 21 days postinoculation, basidiocarps were observed emerging from three colonized plants at the base of the oldest leaf sheath near the crown. Three reisolations were made on PDA+++ from stem lesions surface sterilized with a 0.5% NaOCl solution. All reisolations were confirmed as M. mesosporus by culture morphology and ITS sequence data. M. mesosporus was previously reported causing disease on American beachgrass (Ammophila breviligulata Fernald) in North Carolina (1) and recently in Japan (3). The pathogen was initially placed in the genus Marasmius and reported as the cause of the disease Marasmius blight (1). Subsequent morphological observation found that the pathogen belonged in the genus Marasmiellus (2). To our knowledge, this is the first report of M. mesosporus causing Marasmiellus blight on seashore paspalum, a high-amenity turfgrass. References: (1) L. Lucas et al. Plant Dis. Rep. 55:582, 1971.

A previous study showed that soil moisture sensors systems (SMSs) could lead to irrigation water savings during relatively wet/normal weather conditions. This research, as a follow-up comparison, was conducted under dry weather conditions. The first objective was to statistically evaluate the water savings potential of different commercially available SMSs during the first half of 2006. In the second half, the objectives were to quantify irrigation water use and to evaluate turfgrass quality differences among: (1) a time-based irrigation schedule system with and without a rain sensor; (2) time-based schedules compared to SMS-based systems; and (3) SMS-based systems under different irrigation frequencies. The experimental area was located in Gainesville, Fla. and consisted of common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] plots. Four commercially available SMSs (brands Acclima, Rain Bird, Irrometer, and Water Watcher) were used to bypass scheduled irrigation cycles when the soil water content at the 7- to 10-cm depth was above field capacity. Time-based treatments with and without rain sensor feedback were set up as comparisons for irrigation depth applied, and a nonirrigated treatment for turf quality comparison purposes was implemented. Due to the dry weather conditions and/or infrequent rain events during the experiment, the nonirrigated plots (as well as a broken SMS treatment) resulted in turfgrass quality below the minimum acceptable level. The rest of the treatments had at least minimum acceptable turf quality. The treatment with rain sensor resulted in 13 to 24% less water applied than without the rain sensor treatment. Most SMS-based treatments resulted in significant irrigation water savings compared to the treatment without rain sensor, which ranged from 16 to 54% in the first half, and from 28 to 83% in the second half of 2006, for three of four SMS brands tested.}, number={3}, journal={JOURNAL OF IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE ENGINEERING}, author={Cardenas-Lailhacar, Bernard and Dukes, Michael D. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2010}, month={Mar}, pages={184–193} }

Resistant or tolerant grasses could reduce the need for chemical control. This research was initiated to assess the host status and relative tolerance of six warm‐season genotypes—four zoysiagrasses ( Zoysia Willd.), one St. Augustinegrass [ Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze], and one bermudagrass [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy]—to the sting nematode by two screening methodologies in sequential glasshouse trials in 2007. All entries were hosts with final sting populations 1.7 to 11.0 times greater than initial inoculation levels. Results indicate that evaluating root lengths of unestablished sprigs under sting nematode pressure may improve the identification of genotypes with greater genetic tolerance than in methods using established plants. Total root lengths were not reduced by sting nematodes in UFZ‐10, indicating greater tolerance than found in other entries. Treatments of ‘Empire’, ‘Cavalier’, ‘Emerald’, ‘TifEagle’, and ‘Floratam’ inoculated 45 d after planting exhibited total root length reductions of 24, 29, 29, 32, and 37%, respectively, when compared with uninoculated controls. The observed variability suggests that gains from selecting for sting nematode resistance or tolerance are possible in zoysiagrass.}, number={2}, journal={Crop Science}, author={Schwartz, B.M. and Kenworthy, K.E. and Crow, W.T. and Ferrell, J.A. and Miller, G.L. and Quesenberry, K.H.}, year={2010}, pages={723–729} }

Three brands of evapotranspiration (ET) controllers were selected based on positive water savings results in arid climates. ET controllers were evaluated on irrigation application compared to a time clock schedule intended to mimic homeowner irrigation schedules. Three ET controllers were tested: Toro Intelli-sense; ETwater Smart Controller 100; Weathermatic SL1600. Other time-based treatments were TIME, based on the historical net irrigation requirement and RTIME that was 60% of TIME. Each treatment was replicated four times for a total of twenty St. Augustinegrass plots which were irrigated through individual irrigation systems. Treatments were compared to each other and to a time-based schedule without rain sensor (TIME WORS) derived from TIME. The study period, August 2006 through November 2007, was dry compared to 30-year historical average rainfall. The ET controllers averaged 43% water savings compared to a time-based treatment without a rain sensor and were about twice as effective and reducing irrigation compared to a rain sensor alone. There were no differences in turfgrass quality across all treatments over the 15-month study. The controllers adjusted their irrigation schedules to the climatic demand effectively, with maximum savings of 60% during the winter 2006–2007 period and minimum savings of 9% during spring 2007 due to persistent dry conditions. RTIME had similar savings to the ET controllers compared to TIME WORS indicating that proper adjustment of time clocks could result in substantial irrigation savings. However, the ET controllers would offer consistent savings once programmed properly.}, number={12}, journal={AGRICULTURAL WATER MANAGEMENT}, author={Davis, S. L. and Dukes, M. D. and Miller, G.

These “Smart Irrigation” technologies include evapotranspiration (ET)-based controllers and soil moisture sensor (SMS) controllers. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of these technologies, along with rain sensors, based on irrigation applied and turfgrass quality measurements on St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walter) Kuntze). Testing was performed on two types of SMS controllers (LawnLogic LL1004 and Acclima Digital TDT RS500) at three soil moisture threshold settings. Mini-Clik rain sensors (RS) comprised six treatments at two rainfall thresholds (3 mm and 6 mm) and three different irrigation frequencies (1, 2, and 7 d/wk). Two ET controllers were also tested, the Toro Intelli-Sense controller and the Rain Bird ET Manager. A time-based treatment with 2 days of irrigation per week without any type of sensor (WOS) to bypass irrigation was established as a comparison. All irrigation controller programming represented settings that might be used in residential/commercial landscapes. Even though three of the four testing periods were relatively dry, all of the technologies tested managed to reduce water application compared to the WOS treatment, with most treatments also producing acceptable turf quality. Reductions in irrigation applied were as follows: 7–30% for RS-based treatments, 0–74% for SMS-based treatments, and 25–62% for ET-based treatments. The SMS treatments at low threshold settings resulted in high water savings, but reduced turf quality to unacceptable levels. The medium threshold setting (approximately field capacity) SMS-based treatment produced good turfgrass quality while reducing irrigation water use compared to WOS by 11–53%. ET controllers with comparable settings and good turf quality had −20% to 59% savings. Reducing the irrigation schedule (treatment DWRS) by 40% and using a rain sensor produced water savings between 36% and 53% similar to smart controllers. Proper installation and programming of each of the technologies was essential element to balancing water conservation and acceptable turf quality. Water savings with the SMS controllers could have been increased with a reduced time-based irrigation schedule. Efficiency settings of 100% (DWRS) and 95% (TORO) did not reduce turf quality below acceptable limits and resulted in substantial irrigation savings, indicating that efficiency values need not be low in well designed and maintained irrigation systems. For most conditions in Florida, the DWRS schedule (60% of schedule used for SMS treatments) can be used with either rain sensors or soil moisture sensors in bypass control mode as long as the irrigation system has good coverage and is in good repair.}, number={11}, journal={AGRICULTURAL WATER MANAGEMENT}, author={McCready, M.

Water applied and turf quality from one ET-based system and two sensor-based systems were compared to a system using a standard time-based irrigation schedule. The effect of irrigation frequency was also a part of the study. Estimates of turf ET were obtained from the Penman-Monteith equation using on-site weather data, and also from an atmometer. Results from the twenty week evaluation in 2007 showed that on average the "add-on" soil-moisture-based system evaluated applied the least amount of water while the ET-based system evaluated applied the most water. Weekly irrigation frequencies used the least amount of water, followed by bi-weekly and daily frequencies in increasing amounts when averaged across all technologies. Minimally acceptable turf quality was maintained by all technologies and frequencies through most of the study, but turf quality declined substantially the last month of the study for the add-on system and standard timer-based system. The "on-demand" sensor-based system resulted in the best combination of water efficiency and turf quality.}, booktitle={World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2008}, publisher={American Society of Civil Engineers}, author={Grabow, Garry L. and Vasanth, Arjun and Bowman, Dan and Huffman, Rodney L. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2008}, month={May} }

The objectives of this study were to determine the critical minimum P application rate and soil and tissue P concentration of St. Augustinegrass grown in sandy soils. Three studies were conducted in a glasshouse using a Pomona sand, two Tavares sands, and a Pottsburg sand. Established pots of ‘Floratam’ St. Augustinegrass received P at 0, 0.14, 0.27, 0.54, and 1.09 g m−2 every four weeks for 16 weeks for Study 1 and 12 weeks for Studies 2 and 3. Critical minimum tissue P concentration was determined to be 1.8 g kg−1 on dry weight basis. Minimum P application rate was 0.14 g m−2 4-wk−1 to obtain acceptable turfgrass quality and growth rate. Additional growth was not observed when Mehlich-1 P level was greater than 7, 8, 9, and 5 mg kg−1 for Pomona sand, Tavares sand (a), Pottsburg sand, and Tavares sand (b), respectively. Phosphorus fertilization would not be recommended if soil Mehlich-1 P concentration is above 10 mg kg−1 for sandy soils or tissue P level is beyond 1.8 g kg−1 on dry weight basis. Phosphorus application of 0.14 g m−2 4-wk−1 is recommended when P is required.}, number={3}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Liu, Min and Sartain, J. B. and Trenholm, L. E. and Miller, G.

The objectives of this research were to quantify irrigation water use and to evaluate turf quality differences between (1) time-based scheduling with and without a rain sensor (RS); (2) a time-based schedule compared to a soil moisture sensor (SMS)-based irrigation system; and (3) different commercially available SMS systems. The experimental area consisted of common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] plots (3.7m×3.7m), located in Gainesville, Fla. The monitoring period took place from July 20 to December 14, 2004, and from March 25 to August 31, 2005. SMS-based treatments consisted of irrigating one, two, or seven days a week, each with four different commercial SMS brands. Time-based treatments with or without RS and a nonirrigated treatment were also implemented. Significant differences in turfgrass quality among treatments were not detected due to the sustained wet weather conditions during the testing periods. The treatment with the rain sensor resulted in 34% less water applied than that without the rain sensor (2-WORS) treatment. Most SMS brands recorded irrigation water savings compared to 2-WORS, ranging from 69 to 92% for three of four SMSs tested, depending on the irrigation frequency. Therefore, SMS systems represent a promising technology because of the water savings that they can achieve during wet weather conditions while maintaining acceptable turfgrass quality.}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering}, author={Cardenas-Lailhacar, B. and Dukes, M.

This manuscript gives a preliminary report on the evaluation of three commercially available evapotranspiration (ET) based controllers in residential landscaped plots with respect to irrigation application and landscape quality compared to a homeowner irrigation schedule. The irrigation treatments were as follows: T1, Weathermatic Smart Line Series controller; T2, Toro Intelli-sense; T3, ETwater Smart Controller 100; T4, a time-based treatment; and T5, 60% of T4. This paper reports preliminary results from May 25, 2006 to November 30, 2006. T1 overestimated ETo by 32%, but applied less water than all other treatments during the summer season. Water savings occurred even though ETo was overestimated due to an underestimation of the crop coefficient for warm season turfgrass programmed into the controller (0.60) and due to frequent irrigation event bypass during the rainy summer season. The Weathermatic controller applied 11% and 14% less water than the theoretical gross irrigation requirement during the summer and fall seasons, respectively. The Toro Intelli-sense controller applied 126 mm in the fall, which was 40% less than theoretical requirements, and had the most accurate ETo of all the controllers. The ET water controller overestimated ETo by 7% and applied 63% more irrigation water than was required theoretically. During this preliminary testing, the ET controllers did not result in turf quality below acceptable levels.}, booktitle={World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2007}, publisher={American Society of Civil Engineers}, author={Davis, Stacia and Dukes, Michael D. and Vyapari, Sudeep and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2007}, month={May} }

These technologies include soil moisture sensors, rain sensors and evapotranspiration (ET) based controllers. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of these various technologies based on irrigation applied and turf grass quality measurements. Testing was performed on two types of soil moisture sensors (SMS, LawnLogic® and the Acclima Digital TDT® RS500) at low, medium, and high soil moisture threshold settings. Mini-Clik® rain sensors comprised seven time-based treatments, with three treatments pre-set for 3 mm of rainfall and the remaining 4 rain sensor treatments had sensors pre-set to bypass irrigation for 6 mm of rainfall. Two ET controllers were also tested, the Toro Intelli-Sense controller and the Rain Bird® ET ManagerTM. A time-based treatment with two days of irrigation per week and no rain sensor (2-WORS) was established as a comparison. SMS-based treatments resulted in 0–63% reductions in water use compared to 2-WORS. Rain sensor treatments resulted in 7–33% reductions in water use. ET-based irrigation resulted in 36% to 59% reductions in water use compared to 2-WORS. The SMS treatments at the low threshold settings resulted in high water savings, but reduced turf quality to unacceptable levels. The medium threshold setting SMS-based, time-based and both of the ET-based treatments produced good turf grass quality while reducing irrigation water use compared to 2-WORS.

A new generation of synthetic turfgrass is made of plastics with different composite materials, and is supported by a sand and/or rubber infill material and subsurface base layer. Synthetic turfgrass is being increasingly used on many athletic fields, such as soccer, football and rugby, as well as in urban landscapes. It is superior to natural grass in aspects, such as lower maintenance, no irrigation required, and surface uniformity. However, high temperatures on synthetic turfgrass surface during hot weather may be dangerous and could result in heat related health problems, such as heat stroke. The objective of this study was to evaluate the temperature increase among different synthetic turfgrass types and to predict temperature increase on the synthetic turfgrass surfaces. In this study, four types of synthetic turf grasses (1 – 4) with four infill materials and base layers (A – D) were installed in central Florida, surrounded by large irrigated natural grass fields. Temperature measurements were taken at 23.5 cm above the ground and 5 cm below the ground. The results indicated that there were no differences in air temperatures above the ground between the synthetic turfgrass and the natural turfgrass, due to the small size of the plots and the high wind speed during the daytime. The temperature below the surface (base temperature) for the synthetic turfgrass was always higher than the natural surfaces at noon time. The base temperature differences between the two surfaces were higher in July and August and lower in November. Overall, the infill temperature difference increased with an increase of the depth of the base layer and the color of synthetic turfgrass. Base temperature increase on synthetic turfgrass (Tsyn) was linearly related to the incoming solar radiation (Rs). Relationships based on solar radiation and temperature on natural surfaces (Tnat) (both natural grass and bare soil surface) were developed for all units (Tsyn – Tnat = a Rs + b) so that the temperature increase on synthetic turfgrass could be predicted.}, booktitle={World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2007}, publisher={American Society of Civil Engineers}, author={Jia, Xinhua and Dukes, Michael D. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2007}, month={May} }

Measurement of infiltration rate is important in proper golf course design development and other scenarios that require estimates of runoff. This study compared several commonly performed double-ring infiltration methods as follows: 30- (inner) and 60-cm (outer) diameter rings with a constant water depth (head), 15- (inner) and 30-cm (outer) diameter rings with a constant head, and 15- (inner) and 30-cm (outer) diameter rings with a falling inner head. In addition, a Mariotte siphon device was fabricated to maintain a constant inner head for the 15-cm diameter rings. The 15- and 30-cm rings with the constant head resulted in significantly higher infiltration rates compared to 30- and 60-cm diameter rings with a constant head and 15- and 30-cm rings with a falling head. This was due to variation in the 30- and 60-cm test inner ring water level that had to be maintained manually and because of the non-constant water level in the 15- and 30-cm falling head test. Thus, we concluded that the constant head 15- and 30-cm double-ring test was adequate to represent the infiltration rate in the sandy soils tested. The Mariotte siphon device made it easy for one person to conduct a test while maintaining a constant inner head under infiltration rates ranging from 22 to 225 mm/h.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Applied Turfgrass Science}, publisher={American Society of Agronomy}, author={Gregory, Justin H. and Dukes, Michael D. and Miller, Grady L. and Jones, Pierce H.}, year={2005} }

The goal of this project was to document irrigation system uniformity in Central Florida and to quantify distribution uniformity of residential sprinkler equipment under controlled conditions. The catch-can testing procedure used was a modified version of both the American Society of Agricultural Engineers standard and Florida Mobile Irrigation Laboratory (MIL) procedures. The modified version included a larger sample size to ensure complete sample collection over the entire irrigated area. The standard MIL procedure may overestimate the uniformity for residential systems. From the tests on residential irrigation systems, the average low quarter distribution uniformity (DUlq) value was calculated as 0.45. Rotary sprinklers resulted in significantly higher DUlq compared to fixed pattern spray heads with 0.49 compared to 0.41, respectively. From uniformity tests performed on rotor and spray heads under ideal conditions, rotor heads had more uniform distributions than the spray heads of 0.55 compared to 0.49, respectively. Spray heads had better uniformity when fixed quarter circle nozzles were used as opposed to adjustable nozzles. Both residential irrigation system and controlled tests resulted in (DUlq) at the low end of industry guidelines. Residential irrigation system uniformity can be improved by minimizing the occurrence of low pressure in the irrigation system and by ensuring proper spacing is used in design and installation.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering}, publisher={American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)}, author={Baum, Melissa C. and Dukes, Michael D. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2005}, month={Aug}, pages={336–341} }

These SMSs may interrupt scheduled irrigation cycles, depending on the soil moisturestatus. Other treatments compared plots with or without a rain sensor. A non-irrigated treatment wasalso implemented. No significant differences in turfgrass quality among treatments were detected,which was evidenced by good quality in non-irrigated plots. Treatment without-rain-sensor used 45% more water than the with-rain-sensor treatment. Not all SMSs tested performed the same. Sensorsfrom brand A recorded irrigation water savings ranging from 59% to 88%, brand B from 73% to 82%,and brand D from 46% to 81%, depending on the scheduled irrigation frequency.

With one of the largest state populations in the U.S. that is rapidly growing, competition between urban, agricultural, and other water users is increasing. This project measured residential irrigation water use and irrigation system uniformities in central Florida. Three treatments were established as follows: typical irrigation practices (T1), irrigation based on historical evapotranspiration (T2), and water wise landscape plus irrigation designed to minimize water use (T3). T1 homes averaged 143 mm of irrigation per month in 2003 while T2 and T3 averaged 103 and 74 mm, respectively. This corresponds to a 28 and 48% reduction in irrigation water use compared to the typical practices, respectively. Distribution uniformity (DU1q) of homes tested averaged 0.40–0.50 which was statistically lower than irrigation heads tested under controlled conditions and also lower than industry standards.

Kuntz.] is the preferred warm‐season turfgrass for Florida's commercial and residential landscapes with an estimated 0.7 million hectare under growth and management. Limited published information is available on St. Augustinegrass response to plant growth retardants (PGRs). A 2‐yr study was implemented to monitor St. Augustinegrass turf quality, lateral stolon growth, percent cover, mowing frequency, cumulative turfgrass clippings, and seedhead suppression following PGR application. Treatments were applied on 23 June 1995 and 22 June 1996 as a single application (SIA) at label use rate (LUR) or as twin split applications (TSA) at half LUR each: the sequential application was only used when mowing interval equaled the untreated. The PGRs and rates were flurprimidol [α‐(1‐methylethyl)‐α‐[4‐(trifluoro‐methoxy)phenyl]‐5‐pyrimidine‐methanol] and paclobutrazol [(+/−)‐(R*,R*)‐β‐[(4‐chloro‐phenyl)methyl]‐α‐(1,1‐dimethylethyl)‐1 H ‐1,2,4‐triazole‐1‐ethanol] at 1.12 kg ha −1 for SIA and 0.56 kg ha −1 for TSA, trinexapac‐ethyl [4‐(cyclopropyl‐α‐hydroxymethylene)‐3,5‐dioxocyclohexane carboxylic acid ethylester] and mefluidide [ N ‐[2,4‐dimethyl‐5‐[[trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amino]phenyl]acetamide] at 0.28 kg ha −1 for SIA and 0.14 kg ha −1 for TSA, and imazapic [(±)‐2‐[4,5‐dihydrol‐4‐methyl‐4‐(1‐methylethyl)‐5‐oxo‐1 H ‐imidazol‐2‐yl]‐5‐methyl‐3‐pyridine‐carboxylic acid] at 0.028 kg ha −1 for SIA and 0.014 kg ha −1 for TSA. Responses were observed for a 12‐wk period following initial application, and turf quality was acceptable (>7) for all PGRs. Turf quality for imazapic was generally better than the untreated for Weeks 6 to 10. Greatest control of lateral stolon growth 10 wk after initial application was achieved with TSA of imazapic (68%) and mefluidide (61%). Percent cover 12 wk after initial application was lowest for SIA and TSA imazapic (66 and 53%, respectively). Greatest reduction in mowing frequency was provided by trinexapac‐ethyl (50%), while flurprimidol and mefluidide reduced mowing frequency by 26 and 20%, respectively. The only PGR that reduced cumulative turfgrass clippings (CTC) was trinexapac‐ethyl (63%). Greatest seedhead inhibition during peak production (about 35%) was provided by imazapic and mefluidide. The two most effective PGRs were trinexapac‐ethyl (reduced mowing frequency and CTC) and imazapic (controlled lateral stolon growth and seedhead production), while mefluidide demonstrated some potential. Combinations of these products could be examined in future studies.}, number={4}, journal={Crop Science}, publisher={Crop Science Society of America}, author={McCarty, Lambert B. and Weinbrecht, Jan S. and Toler, Joe E. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2004}, pages={1323} }

The objectives of our research were to: (1) evaluate herbicides preemergence and postemergence for control of tropical signalgrass and (2) compare control of tropical signalgrass and other problem weeds (torpedograss, blanket crabgrass, and India crabgrass) with postemergence herbicides. In preemergence herbicide field trials, only benefin + oryzalin, imazapic, imazapic + 2,4-D, and oryzalin provided ≥75% tropical signalgrass control 8 wk after application (WAA). By 11 WAA, only benefin + oryzalin and imazapic + 2,4-D provided ≥75% tropical signalgrass control. In greenhouse experiments, eight herbicide treatments were applied postemergence to tropical signalgrass seedlings at the two-, four-, six-, and eight-leaf stages. Asulam and CGA 362622 provided ≥89% tropical signalgrass control at all application timings. Imazaquin controlled tropical signalgrass ≥98% when applied before the eight-leaf stage.

Offering a survey course as a means for introducing students to agriculture is a concept with popular appeal. As a recruiting effort, and as a method of introducing students to horticulture, the Environmental Horticulture Department at the University of Florida, Gainesville, designed a one-credit course for nonmajors. The course was structured to provide a broad overview of horticulture, emphasizing plant use to enhance interior and exterior environments. The intent was to develop a course somewhat similar to an entry-level course for majors, but with each lecture devoted to a single, self-contained topic. When feasible, hands-on activities were incorporated within the classroom presentation. The course ORH 1030-Plants, Gardens, and You was offered for the first time in Summer 1997. It is now offered every semester. The course has one faculty assigned each semester and various other faculty members, including teaching, research, and extension specialists, participate as guest lecturers. Methods to improve the course are discussed by the faculty presenters and the course coordinator each term. Student response to ORH 1030 has been favorable, ratings are high and enrollment in the course has continued to rise from 30 to our current cap of 100. As a means of ensuring that we are meeting the needs of our students and to aid in targeting potential students, a survey was administered in Spring 2000. Students enrolled in the course were surveyed at the beginning and the end of the semester to gain insight into student demographics, horticulture background and experience, reasons for enrollment in the class, and overall interest in the course.}, journal={HortTechnology}, publisher={American Society for Horticultural Science}, author={Bradley, Jennifer Campbell and McConnell, Dennis and Kane, Michael and Miller, Grady}, year={2003}, month={Jan}, pages={196–199} }

Tissue samples were collected from Florida golf courses, representing different cultivars grown under various conditions and fertilizer regimes. Tissue samples were analyzed using NIRS and traditional wet chemistry (Mehlich-1 extracts analyzed using inductively coupled argon spectrophotometer) before results were statistically compared. Results from wet chemistry analysis averaged 15% lower than those obtained from NIRS. Although results for certain cultivars and elements were positively correlated (`Tifdwarf' Ca, r 2 = 0.72; P < 0.01), precision across all cultivars and nutrients was not sufficient (accounted for only 26% of variability) to indicate that NIRS would be an effective management tool for the elements evaluated in this study.}, number={6}, journal={HortScience}, publisher={American Society for Horticultural Science}, author={Miller, Grady L. and Thomas, Adam}, year={2003}, month={Oct}, pages={1247–1250} }

Growth differences were apparent among cultivars. A 1N-0P-0.8K or 1N-0P-1.7K ratio is insufficient for optimum growth of bermudagrass during establishment, even when planted on a soil high in P. Increased coverage rate with additional P was optimized at a ratio of 1N-0.4P at all four sites. Increased coverage with P was greatest on the sand-based greens, probably due to the very low initial P levels of the soils.

Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy] were examined during drought stress. Soil amendments had variable effects on turf quality. In general, turf grown in ZeoPro®- and Profile®-amended sand had the highest quality. Data indicated that the evaluated soil amendments have the potential to influence soil water content, ultimately influencing transpirational response to drought stress. Amended sand contained 1% to 16% more transpirable water compared with non-amended sand. Turfgrass grown in Axis®- and Isolite®-amended sand required 0.4 to 1.4 days longer to reach the endpoint (transpiration rate of drought stressed plants <12% of well-watered plants) during a period of rapid water depletion. Data from this study suggest that the total volume these amendments occupied in the root zone, following a single filling of core aerification holes in sand, may positively influence soil moisture status, resulting in an increase in drought avoidance.}, number={2}, journal={HortScience}, publisher={American Society for Horticultural Science}, author={Miller, Grady L.}, year={2000}, month={Apr}, pages={213–216} }

The first objective of this study was to evaluate the use of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) to schedule N fertilization on two dwarf‐type bermudagrasses [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy]. The second objective was to test the accuracy of NIRS‐predicted mineral tissue concentrations. The third objective was to study the effect of N fertility on thatch development. ‘Tifdwarf’ and ‘FloraDwarf’ bermudagrasses grown on sand–peat (9:1 by volume) were subjected to five treatments using time, NIRS‐predicted N thresholds, and a visual quality rating threshold to schedule applications of (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 for 20 wk per growing season in 1997 and 1998. There were positive linear relationships between total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) and NIRS‐predicted N in 1997 (r 2 = 0.76; slope = 0.96) and 1998 (r 2 = 0.92; slope = 1.06). NIRS‐scheduled fertility resulted in similar quality with less fertilizer than time or visual quality‐based fertility. The NIRS mineral concentration predictions for K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, and Cu were positively correlated with traditional laboratory methods, but there was not sufficient precision in measurements to use NIRS for determination of these nutrients. Thatch development and yields were greater in treatments receiving higher rates of fertilizers, suggesting that excessive growth rates due to high rates of applied fertilizer may have contributed to thatch development.}, number={3}, journal={Agronomy Journal}, publisher={American Society of Agronomy}, author={Rodriguez, Ian R. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2000}, pages={423} }

The objective of this study was to evaluate the capacity of a hand-held chlorophyll meter (SPAD-502) to provide a relative index of chlorophyll concentrations, N concentrations, and visual quality in St. Augustinegrass [ Stenotaphrum secondatum (Walt.) Kuntze]. Two experiments were conducted in a greenhouse in 1998 to evaluate the utility of SPAD readings. Established pots of `Floratam' were subjected to weekly foliar Fe treatments at Fe rates of 0 and 0.17 kg·ha –1 for 4 weeks. Six weekly nitrogen fertilizer treatments were applied in the form of ammonium sulfate at N rates of 0, 5.75, 11.5, 17.25, and 23 kg·ha –1 for 4 weeks. Greenhouse SPAD readings were not affected by Fe treatment, but N treatments resulted in differences in SPAD readings, visual quality, and chlorophyll concentrations. The readings were positively correlated with chlorophyll concentrations ( r 2 = 0.79), visual ratings ( r 2 = 0.74), and total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) ( r 2 = 0.71). Readings taken from field-grown `Floratam', `Floratine', and `Floralawn' St. Augustinegrass were poorly correlated ( r 2 < 0.63) with chlorophyll concentrations and TKN. Unless future techniques improve dependability of the SPAD meter under field conditions for measuring chlorophyll and N concentration of a stand of turfgrass, the usefulness of such readings for the management of St. Augustinegrass seems limited.}, number={4}, journal={HortScience}, publisher={American Society for Horticultural Science}, author={Rodriguez, Ian R. and Miller, Grady L.}, year={2000}, month={Jul}, pages={751–754} }

Six rates of K ranging from 0 to 390 kg·ha -1 were applied twice per month each growing season from 1992 to 1994. The cultivars were established on both a sand-peat (9:1 by volume) and loamy sand. Potassium chloride and K 2 SO 4 were compared as sources of K, and were applied simultaneously with N applications. Extractable soil K and leaf tissue K concentrations increased with increasing K rates. There was a critical K fertilization level (74 to 84 kg·ha -1 ) for each cultivar and medium combination beyond which no increase in tissue concentration was observed. Increasing K fertilization resulted in a decrease in extractable Ca and Mg in both media with corresponding decreases in tissue Ca and Mg concentrations.

Forage samples of Terral ‘817’ wheat, ‘Jenkins’ triticale, and ‘Morrison’ triticale were harvested at growth stages 5.0, 6.5, and 8.0 and AA concentrations and yield determined. Wheat and triticale forage samples were incubated in Dacron bags for 24 h in the rumen of cows to determine the comparative ruminal degradability of their EAA. Forage production among the three cultivars in 1987‐1988 was similar, but in 1988‐1989, Jenkins produced 15% more forage than Terral 817, which produced 14% more forage than Morrison. Essential amino acid concentrations in Jenkins triticale forage were equal to or greater than Terral 817 wheat or Morrison triticale; however, Morrison grain had a greater concentration of all EAA, except lysine, than did grain of Terral 817 or Jenkins. The EAA in Terral 817 forage averaged 25% higher in potential degradability in the rumen than EAA in Jenkins. Terral 817 and Morrison maintained a higher grain yield response to forage removal in contrast to Jenkins. Differences in forage yield, grain yield, and EAA concentration could not always be separated by species. The data suggest that triticale may produce forage and grain yields equal or greater than that of winter wheat while providing a better source of ruminally undegradable EAA.}, number={1}, journal={Agronomy Journal}, publisher={American Society of Agronomy}, author={Miller, Grady L. and Bunting, L.

Pers.] turfs. Research was conducted to evaluate two bermudagrass cultivars field‐grown on a high sand based soil mix and a native soil for the influence of applied K on cold resistance. A field study with six K rates ranging from 0 to 390 kg ha −1 growing month −1 were applied to ‘Tifdwarf’ and ‘Tifway’ bermudagrass [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy] established on a sand‐peat (9:1 by volume) and a Uchee loamy sand (loamy, siliceous, thermic Arenic Hapludult) during 1992–1994. Potassium chloride or K 2 SO 4 were compared as sources of K and were applied with twice monthly N applications. Elemental soil and plant leaf tissue concentrations were measured periodically during the course of the study. By means of an electrolyte leakage (EL) method, predicted lethal temperatures were identified for rhizome samples removed from the field monthly from October through March of 1992–1993 and 1993–1994. Lethal temperatures estimated by EL were compared with those obtained by means of a recovery growth method. Extractable K in the growth media (12‐204 kg K ha −1 ) and leaf tissue K concentrations (8.9–17.3 g K kg −1 i DM) increased with increasing K rates. Application of high rates of K had no effect on predicted lethal temperatures or plant regrowtho Lethal temperatures for Tifdwarf ranged from °5.8 to −7.0°C, whereas those of Tifway varied from −6.8 to −8.4°C. High K rates appear to not increase bermudagrass rhizome cold resistance; therefore, there may be no benefit to using rates beyond those that provide sufficient K levels for normal growth.}, number={5}, journal={Crop Science}, publisher={Crop Science Society of America}, author={Miller, Grady L. and Dickens, Ray}, year={1996}, pages={1290} }

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of forage harvest management on subsequent grain yields of triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack) and wheat to determine the growth stage for cessation of forage harvest to optimize grain and forage production. The effect of defoliation until Feekes Growth Stage (GS) 5.0, 6.5, or 8.0 on forage production and grain yield components of ‘Terral 817’ wheat, ‘Jenkins’ triticale, and ‘Morrison’ triticale was investigated for two growing seasons at Baton Rouge, LA. Plots harvested up to GS 8.0 produced the greatest forage yield both years. There were no significant differences in mean grain yield of the three cultivars between undipped check plots and plots harvested until GS 5.0 either year. A favorable combination of forage and grain yields in 1987–1988 was achieved if the final forage harvest was made at GS 5.0, but the highest yield combination in 1988–1989 was produced by continuing forage harvest until GS 8.0. Clipping significantly reduced lodging and disease incidence during the 1988– 1989 growing season. Defoliation until GS 8.0 resulted in reductions in number of stems m −2 , number of spikelets per head, and weight per seed by 37, 11, and 18%, respectively, resulting in a grain yield reduction of 44% compared with the undefoliated plants. Forage utilization should be terminated by the first node stage to minimize grain yield reductions due to tiller mortality, shortened heads, and poor kernel fill.}, number={5}, journal={Crop Science}, publisher={Crop Science Society of America}, author={Miller, G.
