Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Salinity significantly reduced chlorophyll content and growth parameters in both species.
- Intervention effect Compared with the salt-stressed control, NS200 increased chlorophyll content by 51.4-62.6% across both species.
- Intervention effect Compared with the salt-stressed control, NS200 increased turfgrass quality scores by 25.1-31.2% across both species.
- Intervention effect Compared with the salt-stressed control, NS200 increased weekly clipping dry weight by 165.1-232.4 % across both species.
- Intervention effect Humic acid applied at 300 cc per da gave limited improvements under the same salinity level.
- Intervention effect Nano silicon, particularly at 200 cc per da, is a more effective and consistent strategy than humic acid for improving physiological performance and visual quality of cool-season turfgrasses under moderate salinity stress.
