    Conversion from perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) to zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.) in the transition zone of the USA may reduce irrigation and fungicide requirements. However, environmental conditions under ...
  • Estimation of visual quality and canopy characteristics of turfgrass using spectral reflectance and digital imagery
    Lee, Hyeonju (Kansas State University, 2008)
    Radiometric methods may provide more objective and quantitative assessments of turf quality and density than visual ratings and may be useful in measuring green leaf area index (LAI), aboveground biomass, and chlorophyll ...
