| Abstract/Contents: | "Interplanting perennial peanut into turfgrass have been proposed as an alternative to reduce N fertilizer needs in warm-season turfgrasses. In hay systems, nitrogen transfer from a legume to a grass depends on root sloughing or legume plant death. The objective of this study was to evaluate the nitrogen transfer and turfgrass response of four legumes on 'Pensacola' bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge) maintained as a lawn. The legumes selected included a stoloniferous perennial peanut (PP) (Arachis pintoi cv. 'Golden Glory'), two rhizomatous PP (A. glabrata Benth 'Ecoturf' and 'Cowboy'), and a southern US native stoloniferous legume (Mimosa strigilosa Torrey & A. Gray). The mixtures were established at Jay, FL in 2021 and evaluated through 2023. Plots were regularly mowed, and clippings were returned. The nitrogen tissue concentration and green color of bahiagrass were evaluated under monoculture and mixed with the legumes. The δ15N natural abundance technique was used to calculate the percentage of N derived from the atmosphere (%Ndfa). Association with the legumes increased tissue N in bahiagrass. Negative δ15N in the bahiagrass monoculture supports the claims that bahiagrass can fix N2. The %Ndfa in bahiagrass was 30-40%; similar to forage systems. The %Ndfa in the monoculture and bahiagrass + Golden Glory was 39% higher than bahiagrass associated with mimosa. Increased tissue N in bahiagrass + mimosa was attributed to higher VWC. Greater tissue N did not result in increased turfgrass color after 2 years." |
