Turfgrass Biology, Use, and Management

Sustainability is a key framework for analyzing biological systems--and turfgrass is no exception. It is part of a complex that encompasses turfgrass interactions with different environments and the suitability of different turfgrasses for specific environments. In addition to its biological role, t...
