Abstract

This study was initiated to evaluate green color retention under three different soil systems. Several turfgrasses were evaluated in multi-layer, USGA, and mono-layer systems. Turfgrass entries were comprised of three cultivars of Korean lawngrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.) as warm-season grass (WSG) and three blends and three mixtures of Kentucky bluegrass (KB, Poa pratensis L.), perennial ryegrass (PR, Lolium perenne L.), and tall fescue (TF, Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) as cool-season grass (CSG). Significant differences were observed in visual turf color and green color retention among soil systems and turfgrasses. Both the multi-layer and USGA systems were highly associated with better color ratings and longer color retention, as compared with the mono-layer system. Seasonal variation of visual turf color greatly occurred from late December to early spring. CSG exhibited longer color retention than did WSG. The latter maintained green color for approximately 6 months, regardless of the soil system. Spring green-up of Korean lawngrass occurred from early to middle May, while it underwent discoloration from late October to early November. Among the CSGs green-up occurred between early March and early April and leaf color was maintained until middle December to early February. Therefore, the CSGs were green for 8.5 to 11 months, depending on turfgrass and soil system. The mean period of green color duration across all soil systems was approximately 10-11, 9-10 and 8.5-9.0 months for PR, KB and TF, respectively. As for the CSG mixtures, the greater the proportion of PR, the longer the green color retention, while the higher the proportion of TF, the shorter the color retention. There was greater variation in green color duration among the CSGs than the WSGs. Across soil systems, color retention differences of 2 to 6 days were observed for the Korean lawngrass, but 7 to 36 days for the CSGs. These results demonstrate that green color retention varied greatly according to soil systems and also among turfgrasses. Selections of turfgrass and soil system should be made using a concept-oriented approach, when establishing garden, park, soccer field, golf course and other sports field. Information obtained in this study can be used to select soil systems and turfgrasses based on the expected degree of leaf color retention.

본 연구는 스포츠용 다단구조, USGA구조 및 약식구조에서 난지형 및 한지형 주요 초종의 연중 녹색 유지 기간을 비교하고자 수행하였다. 공시 초종은 전체 9종류로 들잔디 세 품종과 한지형 잔디 조합종 및 혼합구가 각각 세 종류이었다. 잔디지반 및 초종 별로 연중 색상 품질 및 녹색 유지 기간에 대해 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 지반 간 차이는 약식구조에 비해 다단 및 USGA 구조에서 잔디의 색상이 우수하였으며, 녹색 기간도 더 길게 나타났다. 초종 간 색상 차이는 계절적으로 12월 하순부터 녹화가 시작되는 이른 봄까지 크게 나타났다. 녹색 유지 기간은 한지형 잔디가 난지형 들잔디에 비해 더 길게 나타났다. 들잔디의 평균 녹색유지 기간은 약 6개월 정도였고, 이른 봄 녹화 시점은 5월 1일-5월 14일 사이, 가을에 휴면에 들어가는 시점은 10월 28일-11월 8일 사이로 나타났다. 한지형 잔디는 3월 초순-4월 초순 사이 녹화가 완료되어 동절기인 12월 중순-2월 초순까지 색상이 유지되어 초종에 따라 전체 지반 평균의 푸른 기간이 약 8.5-11개월 사이로 다양하게 나타났다. 잔디지반 유형에 따라 한지형 잔디의 녹색기간은 퍼레니얼 라이그래스의 경우 10-11개월 정도로 가장 길었고, 반면 톨 훼스큐가 8.5-9개월 정도로 가장 짧았다. 켄터키 블루그래스는 9-10개월 정도로 퍼레니얼 라이그래스와 톨 훼스큐의 중간 정도의 녹색 기간을 나타냈으며, 한지형 혼합구의 푸른 기간은 퍼레니얼 라이그래스가 많이 혼합 될수록 길어지고, 톨 훼스큐가 많이 섞일수록 짧아지는 경향이었다. 지반에 따른 초종별 녹색기간 차이는 난지형인 들잔디의 '야지', '중지' 및 '제니스'간의 차이는 2-6일로 짧은 반면, 한지형 잔디는 최소 7일-최대 36일 까지 상당히 크게 나타났다. 즉 초종 및 지반에 따라 녹색 유지 기간 차이가 다르게 나타나기 때문에 정원, 공원, 경기장 및 골프장 등 잔디밭 조성 시 컨셉에 의한 초종 및 지반 선정이 필요하다. 본 연구를 통해 나타난 다양한 결과는 경기장 및 골프장 등 스포츠 잔디밭 설계 시 기대하는 녹화기간에 따라 지반선정 및 초종 선택에 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
