Turfgrass Physiology and Stress Adaptation is a comprehensive reference work on the science and management of turfgrass plants. Examining how turfgrass plants grow, how they adapt to various environmental conditions, and how they are managed in areas with limited resources, this book approaches the subject from both a physiological and environmental standpoint. Encompassing both the basic science and applied practices for maintaining turf, Turfgrass Physiology and Stress Adaptation is a valuable resource for both scientific knowledge and practical technique. Divided into four sections, the book begins with an introduction to warm-season and cool-season turfgrass species. Other key topics include a comprehensive discussion on physiological and metabolic processes controlling turfgrass growth and development, an examination of the ways turfgrass plants cope with environmental stresses, and the potential role biotechnology will play in enhancing turf in the future. Aimed primarily at turfgrass educators, scientists, practitioners, and students, Turfgrass Physiology and Stress Adaptation is an invaluable tool for anyone interested in turfgrass science and management.
