Research advances in mechanisms of turfgrass tolerance to abiotic stresses: From physiology to molecular biology. Examination of cold deacclimation sensitivity of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass. ![]() Comparative assessment of metabolic responses to cold acclimation and deacclimation in annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass. University of Massachusetts Winter School for Turf Managers (certificate program) STOCKSCH 391B Turfgrass Science and Management Seminar (co-taught) STOCKSCH 397P Introductory Plant Physiology STOCKSCH 275 Turfgrass Physiology and Ecology In addition to addressing fundamental questions on mechanisms of abiotic stress resistance, we also conduct applied research to help guide turf industry professionals on the selection of stress-resistant grass species and cultivars, and to aid in the development of best management practices aimed at reduced water, fertilizer, and pesticide use. Our goal is to identify plant traits and stress response pathways associated with tolerance to different environmental stresses that are relevant in terms of global climate change, including temperature extremes and drought. My research program is centered on gaining greater insight into physiological mechanisms of plant adaptation to environmental stresses, using perennial grasses as an experimental system. in Plant Biology (2006), Rutgers Universityī.S.
