Genetic Characteristics and Environmental Parameters for Growing Turfgrass in Closed and Retractable Dome Stadiums
نویسنده
چکیده
Vigorous plant growth without sunlight is routinely achieved in commercial hydroponic lettuce and tomato production using electric lamps. This same technology can be used to maintain live turf grass in closed athletic stadiums. It can also be used to supplement natural sunlight in retractable roof stadiums. The challenge is to determine the optimal combination of genetic characteristics and environmental parameters to grow turf in a closed stadium using artificial light and to quantify the benefits of supplemental lighting in retractable dome stadiums.

Genetic and Phenotypic Parameters for Semen Characteristics and Their Relationship with Scrotal Circumference in Black Bengal Bucks
Black Bengal goat is the heritage and one of the potential genetic resources of Bangladesh. Genetic and phenotypic parameters for semen characteristics and their relationships with scrotal circumference in Black Bengal bucks were estimated in this experiment. Genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanen...
متن کاملDevelopment of closed-loop supply chain mathematical model (cost-benefit-environmental effects) under uncertainty conditions by approach of genetic algorithm
In the current world, the debate on the reinstatement and reuse of consumer prod-ucts has become particularly important. Since the supply chain of the closed loop is not only a forward flow but also a reverse one; therefore, companies creating integ-rity between direct and reverse supply chain are successful. The purpose of this study is to develop a new mathematical model for closed loop suppl...
متن کاملEffect of humic acid and mulches on some characteristics of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)
Application of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality. However, limited research has investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its planting stage, a factorial experiment based on a completely rando...

Environmental pollution and emissions, along with the increasing production and distribution of goods, have placed the future of humanity at stake. Today, measures such as the extensive reduction in emissions, especially of CO2 and CO, have been emphasized by most researchers as a solution to the problem of environmental protection. This paper sought to explore production routing pro...
