Characterization of soil microbial population dynamics in newly constructed sand-based rootzones. (Turfgrass Science).(Statistical Data Included)

From: Crop Science | Date: September 1, 2002| Author: Bigelow, Cale A.; Bowman, Daniel C.; Wollum, Arthur G., II | Copyright information

Modern sand-based golf course putting greens are constructed for optimum soil physical properties. However, since they are sand based and synthetically prepared, it is often perceived that they support a less numerous and diverse microbial population than comparable native soils. This field study was conducted to monitor the microbial properties of five newly constructed sand-based rootzone mixtures planted to creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera var. palustris Huds. Farw.) during the f...
