| Abstract/Contents: | "Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) has a modest response to nitrogen (N) fertilization, especially during establishment, and there is no indication about its preference for mineral form. A greenhouse study was conducted to determine the effect of urea and nitrate as nitrogen sources on zoysiagrass. Plants were planted in sand and treatments were applied with a nutrient solution at five urea: nitrate ratios (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 5:75, 0:100). Results of growth analysis indicate that zoysiagrasses prefer a solution with a 50:50, 75:25, or 100:0 ratio with ā„50% urea. Root and stem mass were higher in treatments with urea. This study demonstrates that zoysiagrass' preference for N form affects growth when grown in a sand rootzone, which could lead to reduced N inputs and/or improved establishment in these soils." |
