Article Synopsis
- Irrigation of grasses is a major contributor to global water use, highlighting the need for better drought resistance and water conservation strategies.
- Researchers studied four zoysiagrass cultivars (Lobo, Zeon, Empire, Meyer) to understand the mechanisms behind their varying drought resistance levels during controlled drying conditions.
- Lobo and Zeon demonstrated better dehydration tolerance and faster recovery, suggesting that effective drought resistance stems from tolerance rather than simply avoiding dehydration, which could inform future breeding programs and help lawn owners choose more resilient grass varieties.
