| Abstract/Contents: | "Techniques to rapidly identify Al tolerant turfgrasses are needed. The objectives of this study were to evaluate three media for screening turfgrasses for Al tolerance under greenhouse conditions, and compare turfgrasses for their Al tolerance using solution culture. Eight genotypes (exhibiting a range in Al tolerance) each of Poa pratensis L., fine fescue (Festuca spp.), and Agrostis spp. were screened in solution, sand, and acid Tatum soil (clayey, mixed, thermic Typic Hapludult). Grasses were seeded into the media and grown for four weeks before evaluating relative shoot and root growth. Additionally, the same eight genotypes of each genus were seeded and grown for 10 weeks, in Tatum soil. A strong positive correlation between the 4 week and 10 week screening in Tatum soil indicated that shorter term screening may be a practical approach. Relative root and shoot growth of the turfgrasses were strongly correlated (r = 0.67 to 0.95) when grown in acid Tatum soil for 10 weeks suggesting that clipping yield may be a cost effective indicator of Al tolerance in field trials. In a second experiment, fine fescue was the most Al tolerant genus compared with Poa pratensis, Lolium perenne L., and Festuca arundinacea Schreb. (tall fescue) grown in Al-enriched solutions." |
