Kentucky bluegrass 는 경기장과 골프장의 Tee 나 Fairway 등에 가장 많이 사용이 되는 한지형잔디 초종중의 하나이다. 그러나 Kentucky bluegrass 는 뿌리층이 얕고 그늘에 약한 단점들이 있다. Kentucky bluegrass 의 가장 큰 단점중의 하나는 성장을 위해 수분이 많이 요구되는 초종이다. 올바른 수분관리는 잔디의 시각적 색감과 품질을 유지하기 위해 아주 중요한 요소중의 하나이다. 잔디의 성장을 위해 수분을 공급하는 관수 방법에는 light and frequent (LI) 적은양을 빈번하게 관수하는 방법과, deep and infrequent (DI) 많은양을 필요시에 공급하는 두가지의 방법이 있다. 본 실험은 Kentucky bluegrass 의 생육을 위한 관수빈도의 차이를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 실험을 위해 무관수, 매주 4회, 그리고 매주 1회의 3가지 관수방법이 사용되었다. 무관수 처리구의 경우 인위적인 관수는 수행되지 않았으며 Kentucky bluegrass 의 생육을 위해 수분공급은 강수량에 의해서만 이루어졌다. 본 실험결과 2011년 기상조건하에서 강우량에 의존한 무관수는 7,8 월에 최소수용품질을 나타내기 어렵다고 판단되며, 관수빈도에 따른 Kentucky bluegrass 생육의 차이는 나타나지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Creeping bentgrass 는 골프장의 티나 퍼팅그린 그리고 경기장과 같이 집중관리가 요구되는 곳에 가장 많이 사용되는 잔디의 종류중 하나이기도 하지만 Kentucky bluegrass에 침입하는 방제하기 어려운 잡초이기도 하다. Mesotrione은 선택성 제초제이며 처음에 옥수수를 위해 등록이 되었으며, 광엽잡초를 방제하기 위한 발아전 혹은 발아후 제초제로 이용이 되고 있다. Mesotrione가 creeping bentgrass를 방제하기 위한 효과는 많은 선행연구에 의해 보고가 되어 왔다. Mesotrione이 creeping bentgrass 방제에 효과가 있어도 방제가 된 후 피해가 발생한 곳의 회복은 Kentucky bluegrass의 지하부와 rhizome 등에 의해 회복되기 까지는 시간이 오래 걸린다. 덧파종은 일반적으로 피해를 입은 곳을 회복 시키거나 밀도를 높이기 위해서 사용이 된다. 실험의 목적은 mesotrione과 덧파종이 Kentucky bluegrass에 침입한 creeping bentgrass를 방제하고 회복하기 위한 효과를 조사하기 위해서 수행이 되었다. 0, 0.05 and 0.10 m $ml^{-2}$의 세가지 mesotrione농도와 15와 30 g $m^{-2}$ 두가지의 Kentucky bluegrass 덧파종량의 총 6가지 처리가 적용이 되었다. Mesotrione과 Kentucky bluegrass 덧파종을 동시에 처리 하는 것은 creeping bentgrass 방제에는 효과가 있으나 Kentucky bluegrass 회복에는 효과가 나타나지 않았다. Creeping bentgrass방제 효과는 mesotrione의 처리에 의한 것이며 덧파종에 의한 것은 아닌 것으로 나타났다. Mesotrione의 효과를 극대화 하기 위해서는 본 실험결과 $20^{\circ}C$ 이상일 때가 더 효과가 좋은 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to select the appropriate herbicide, which is needed to control the bentgrass in kentucky bluegrass(Poa pratensis) fairway effectively. The best control of bentgrass was observed at /$0.3mL\m^2$ of dithiopyr applied on Kentucky bluegrass. A field experiment was conducted to determine the priming effects on seed germination of Kentucky bluegrass. Ground covering rates by turfgrass were investigated under field conditions for 70 treatments by thirty days after treatment. The solid matrix priming(SMP) treatments on Kentucky bluegrass reduced the number of days requited for emergence and improved final cover ratings. Primed seeds of Kentucky bluegrass (incubated for five days at $20^{\circ}C$) resulted in most rapid germination and covering rate.

A turfgrass rootzone foundation is one of the important iufluences on the growth of cool-season turfgrass such as Kentucky bluegrass, which is usually grown on korean golf courses and athletic fields in Korea. This study was carried out to evaluate the growth of Kentucky bluegrass on 4 types of turfgrass root-zone foundations: a 2cm thickness of Sand 90%+Peat humus 8%+Zeolite 2% mixture on a subsoil base (C), a 20cm thickness of Sand 90%+Peat humus 8%+Zeolite 2% mixture (S), a 20cm thickness of Sand 45%+fine sand(a sort of Bomyungsa) 45%+Peat humus 8%+Zeolite 2% mixture (S+F), and a 20cm thickness of Sand 45%+fine sand(a sort of Bomyungsa) 45%+Peat humus 8%+Zeolite 2% mixture on a 20cm thick drainage layer (S+F(G)). Visual ratings of Kentucky bluegrass on the C foundation were low throughout the experiment when compared to S, S+F, and S+F(G) foundations, which contained high contents of sand with a high water infiltration rate. However, poor growth of Kentucky bluegrass in the summer of 1991 on the S foundation was likely to be caused by a too high water infiltration rate (185.8cm/hr). The growth of Kentucky bluegrass on the S+F(G) was good while the growth was a little weak at the developing stage on the S +F foundation. If the cost had to be considered when constructing golf courses and athletic fields, The S+F foundation without the drainage layer would be the best choice in terms of low cost and good quality of Kentucky bluegrass compared to the S+F(G). In this result, the infiltration rate was regarded as the most influential factor to the growth of Kentucky bluegrass on rootzone foundations.

Winter turfgrass injury is one of the critical problems of many golf courses in Korea. Turfgrass loss from freezing injury due to low temperature leads to many types of damages including weed invasion, increased herbicide cost, increased soil erosion, and expensive re-establishment. Although Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) which is the most widely used among cool-season grasses in Korea is well known as cold tolerance species, freezing injuries to Kentucky bluegrass during winter are often found. Protecting the turfgrass crown is necessary to recover from low temperature stress in winter because shoots and roots can be recovered from the crown. Turf covers may protect the crowns from direct low temperatures and desiccation. Six different turf covers were installed to cover Kentucky bluegrass during a period of low temperatures. Turf covers had positive effects for spring green-up of Kentucky bluegrass based on the study. Applying any type of turf covers on Kentucky bluegrass resulted in an increase average and minimum temperature compared to the uncovered plot. Among turf covers, clear PVC film without holes produced the longest root length and the highest turfgrass quality.

The purpose of this study was to determine the vegetative growth of two cool season turfgrasses during summer season in Korea. Ten respective cultivars of Kentucky bluegrass [Poapratensis L.] and perennial ryegrass [Lolium perenne L.] were exposed to unshaded, 30% and 60% shade for 4odays. First mowing height was 7cm, and then clippings were harvested every ten days at the same height. Shading increased the total length of clippings of all cultivars of two turfgrasses, but fresh and dry weight were significantly decreased. The highest shoot length obtained at 30% shade in Kentucky bluegrass and at 60% shade in perennial ryegrass. 'Rugky', 'Sydsport', 'Wabash' and 'Baron' of Kentucky bluegrass and 'Repel', 'Omega II', 'Ovation', 'Linn', 'Bell' and 'Manhattan' of perennial ryegrass showed relatively high tolerance to shade. Especially, in 'Citation II' perennial ryegrass, fresh and dry weight were increased by 30% shade. The number of tillers generally decreased with increasing shade. In 30% shade, 'Midnight' Kentucky bluegrass and 'Omega II' perennial ryegrass were least reduced and 'Baron' Kentucky bluegrass and 'Pennant' perennial ryegrass were most reduced. The cultivars of lower growth habit in full sunlight showed shade tolerance compared to those of higher growth habit.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of the nitrogen fertilization levels on the content of $NH_4^+$-N in soil of 'Suffolk' Kentucky bluegrass and zoysiagrass. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1.According to the nitrogen fertilization levels, the content of $NH_4^+$-N in soil of Kentucky blue-grass and zoysiagrass was not significantly different. The content of $NH_4^+$-N in soil of Kentucky bluegrass and zoysiagrass was highest in June and December and lowest in March and September. 2.The content of $NH_3^-$-N in soil was increased by increasing the nitrogen fertilization levels in both Kentucky bluegrass and zoysiagrass. However, the deeper the depth of soil the less the content of $NO_3^-$-N in soil. In 40~60cm soil depth, the content of $NO_3^-$-N in soil was lower than 10ppm in average. Even in June, which was the highest month of the content of $NO_3^-$-N in soil, the content of $NO_3^-$-N in soil was not overpassed the degree of 20ppm.

Potassium is well-known to improve turfgrass tolerance to environmental stresses such as low temperature and drought stress. Low mowing height reduces leaf area of turfgrass that is main place for photosynthesis and carbohydrate production. Closely-mowed turf would suffer from summer decline by low level of carbohydrate resulted from low photosynthesis of reduced leaf area. The objective of the study is to investigate K rate and mowing height for Kentucky bluegrass. The K rate treatments were 5, 10, and $20g\;K_2O\;m^{-2}$ for the low, medium and high K rates, respectively. The bi-weekly mowing treatment was made for treatments. Mowing was implemented at 40 and 100 mm using a rotary mower. Regardless K rates, the high mowing height would be required when the air temperature is higher than $28.5^{\circ}C$ and high turfgrass quality of Kentucky bluegrass is needed. When the air temperature is optimal for cool-season grass, the high mowing height and the low K rate is needed for the root length of Kentucky bluegrass.

In this study, we analyzed the relationships between weather factors and photosystem II activity (F_v/F_m), as a measure of photochemical efficiency, in three cool-season turfgrasses commonly planted on golf courses in Jeju, South Korea: perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.), and creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds.). In all three turfgrasses, F_v/F_m was higher during late summer than during early summer. However, in late summer, F_v/F_m was significantly lower in perennial ryegrass than in the other two species. In early summer, F_v/F_m in perennial ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass was positively correlated with mean low temperature and extreme minimum temperature, whereas, in late summer, this parameter in Kentucky bluegrass and creeping bentgrass was positively correlated with relative humidity, and in creeping bentgrass was negatively correlated with mean high temperature, mean low temperature, and extreme maximum temperature. These results indicate that raising low temperatures is favorable for perennial ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass in early summer, whereas, in late summer, the lowering of high temperatures proves to be beneficial for creeping bentgrass, and raising relative humidity is conducive to the growth of Kentucky bluegrass and creeping bentgrass. These findings will contribute to improving the selection and management of turfgrasses on golf courses and sports fields.
