Abstract/Contents: | "Shading of golf course putting greens often reduces turf quality (TQ). Observations suggested velvet bentgrass (Agrostis canina L., VBG) was more shade tolerant than creeping bentgrass (A. stolonifera L., CBG). Our objectives were to compare the TQ and growth response of 'Vesper' VBG and 'Tyee' CBG to N rates and growth regulator application under 80% shade. The experimental design was a randomized block, strip-split plot with four replications. Foliar urea N was applied every 14 d at annual N rates of 49, 98, and 196 kg ha-1. Trinexapac-ethyl (TE, 0.00 and 0.05 kg a.i. ha-1) was applied every 28 d. Treatments were applied May through October 2009 and 2010. Data collected were TQ, clipping yield, relative chlorophyll index (RCI), and ball roll distance. Nitrogen rate affected TQ more than TE application, though effects of both factors were significant in both years. Turf quality differences between species only affected TQ in 2010 when CBG had higher TQ than VBG on 9 of 19 dates. Rating date and N rate accounted for most clipping yield differences. In 2009, VBG had less clipping yield than CBG. Differences in RCI were greatest in 2010, with 196 kg ha-1 N having significantly lower RCIs than the other N rates when compared across rating dates. Nitrogen rate and species each affected ball roll distances. Neither VBG nor CBG provided acceptable putting green TQ at 80% shade. Application of TE and 49 kg ha-1 yr-1 N resulted in the highest TQ for the longest duration." |
