Planting methods of seeding, seed net, sprig net and sprigging were evaluated for influence on the covering rate and the growth of Phragmites spp. The results were as follows. 1. Covering rate was high within 4 months when propagated by sprig net, seeding and sprigging but became same within 5 months afterwards regardless of Planting methods. 2. Growth of leaf height and width was high on vegetative types of Planting methods such as sprig net and sprigging when compared with on seed types of Planting methods such as seeding and seed net. 3. Sprig net showed good covering rate and growth than sprigging when compared within vegetative types of planting. 4. In this study, sprig net was figured out as the best type of Planting methods than any other types of Planting methods for the restoration of a shore vegetation in a urban stream.

4가지 관수 처리 회수가 한국 잔디와 Zoysia-82에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 한국 잔디가 각 관수처리마다 Zoysia-82보다 엽장은 길고 엽복은 넓은 편이었다. 2. Runner의 생장은 Zoysia-82가 왕성했으며, 두 품종 공히 매일 1회 관수, 대비구(자연상태), 5일, 10일마다 1회 관수구순으로 runner의 길이가 길고 1일 생장량도 많았다. 3. 이식시 단위 spring당 각 부위별 건물량은 한국잔디가 더 무거웠으나 생육을 거듭할수록 Zoysia-82가 더 무거웠고, 1일 건물량 증가량도 Zoysia-82가 더 많았다. 4.지표면 피복율은 각 관수처리별 Zoysia-82가 한국 잔디보다 빨랐다. 두 품종 공히 매일 관수구 가장 빨랐고, 대비구, 5일, 10일마다 1회 관수구 순으로 빨랐다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of seedling growth with different seedling rate for machine transplanting with turf. Chosun Zoysia was sown on May 17 with three levels seedling rates. The plant charactersitics were greater in 500g/box plots than the other seedling rates on the seedling box. It ws shown that the 30-40day old seedlings of 1.000 and 2,000g/box seedling plots appeared to be proper methods for Sprigging as the high seedling density. The 70 day old seedling plant with 500g/box were shown to be propoer methods for Sprigging. The seedling periods need to be 60 days for 500g/box plots and 40 days for 1,000 and 2,000g/box plots as forming the mats.

The back-filled soil of the New Incheon International Airport construction site was reclaimed with sea sand in near the Young-Jong island. The primary study was carried out from August 1993 to June 1997 to study soil amendment and to select salt resistance turfgrass species. This study dealt with low maintenance area that included most part of open space of airport site. The second experiment, from October 1996 to August 1998, focused on soil amendment and selection of turfgrass species for alongside runway where turf area was maintained. Through two previous studies, propagation methods with zoysiagrass were tested for alongside runway and surrounding areas at 1998. The study of construction methods with zoysiagrass, vegetative propagation showed better results on visual quality and cover rating compare with seeding propagation. However, significant different between vegetative and seeding propagation was not showed on visual quality and drought tolerance after one year of plot establishment. The cover rating by seeding construction methods reached in excess of 70% of limitation suggested by the Incheon International Airport Cooperation. Zoysia net and sprigging net methods were the most suitable where there requires rapid and high rate of ground cover. Seeding propagation should be acceptable to obtain a resonable cover rating where there allows relatively longer period of completion. Therefore, it should be possible to attain a proper rating of ground cover on the site of open space, alongside runway or areas similar to the New Incheon International Airport which is being built on dredged seashore sand. However, the methods of soil amendment, selecting salt tolerance species, and proper construction procedure should be considered at the a time.

This research was designed to develop the rapid propagation technology of zoysiagrass using carpet production and to provide turf-growing farmers with efficient cultivation methods thor carpet production. Turfgrass cultivar tested in cadet production by seeding was Z. japonica cv. Zenith. Since the surface coverage rate reached to 85% in 2 months after seeding at the rate 6g/$m^2$ in the early part of July, carpet production using ‘Zenith’seeds would be possible to produce within within the same year. Thrfgrasses tested in carpet production by vegetative propagation were Z. japonica, medium type Z. matrella, fine type Z. matrella, and medium type Z. japonica. Planting rates of vegetative parts (sprigs) were 1.2L/$m^2$, 2.4L/$m^2$, 2.5L/$m^2$, and 5L/$m^2$. Two different sizes of sprig were used; 1~2 nodes and 3~4 nodes. Surface coverage rate was 90% in one year after planting at the rate of 2.5L sprigs of medium type Z. japonica. Therefore, the use of sprigs with 3~4 nodes at the planting rate of 2.5L would be suitable for the carpet prodcution. Three months old zoysiagrass carpet (Zenith) was overseeded with Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, and tall fescue at two different overseeding rate. Surface coverage rate was the highest (80%) at the plot overseeded with perennial ryegrass that showed the earliest germination. Suitable overseeding species for the rapid sod formation at the early stage of establishment were tall fescue and perennial ryegrass and desirable overseeding time was from early to middle of September.

This study was carried out to select salt tolerant zoysiagrass breeding lines. Eighty two native zoysiagrasses collected from S. Korea were used in this study. Saline water were prepared by mixing sea water and tap water. ECw levels of saline water treated ranged from 2 to $3dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Zoysiagrass planted in pot by sprigging were soaked into the plastic box containing saline water. Winter injury was investigated under the pot condition. Most of Z. japonica types did not show winter injury. But Z. tenuifolia type, Z. matrella type, and Z. sinica type showed winter injury under the pot condition at Cheonan area. NaCl level in soil was increased from 0% to 0.51% by treatment of saline water. Soil ECe measurement showed upto $170dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Z. tenuifolia type (Z5034), Z. matrella type ('Konhee', Z4109, 'Semill'), Z. japonica type (Z1055, Z1040, Z1008, 'Zenith', 'Millock') and medium leaf type zoysiagrass (Z6096, Z6118, Z6021, Z6074) resulted in below 30% leaf firing under the saline condition. This approach might be useful for selecting salt tolerant breeding lines.

This study was carried out to examine the growth performance of 4 species of cool-season grasses and 4 species of zoysiagrasses under salt injury in Seo-san reclaimed area. Grasses were grown on the plots with capillary water interruption layer (WCWIL) and without capillary water interruption layer (WOCWIL) soil systems. Cool-season grass and seeding-type zoysiagrass plots were seeded on 6 Jun, 2006. Vegetative zoysiagrass 'Junggi' was established by sprigging and 'Senock' and 'Millock' were plugged. Electric conductivities of irrigation water (ECw) ranged from 0.28 to $3.3\;dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Electric conductivities (ECe) of the soil with capillary water interruption layer and without capillary water interruption layer ranged from 0.55 to $9.4\;dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and from 1.84 to $9.4\;dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ respectively. Leaf color, turf quality, coverage rates, and growth rates were rated visually for 2 years. Zoysiagrass 'Junggi', creeping bentgrass, zoysiagrass 'Senock' and 'Millock' showed acceptable growth at salty fairway condition, while Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, Kentucky bluegrass mixed with perennial ryegrass, and seeded zoysiagrass 'Zenith' showed establishment rates below 70%. These results will be useful when choosing turf grass species and cultivars for the golf courses in reclaimed land area.
