Performance of Two Seashore Paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.) Varieties Growing in Shallow Green Roof Substrate Depths and Irrigated with Seawater

Abstract: The continuing decline in global drinking water reserves necessitates finding alternative water sources for turfgrass irrigation, especially in southern semi-arid Mediterranean countries. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential of using seawater for irrigating two varieties of seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.), “Marina” and “Platinum ΤΕ”, growing in shallow green roof substrates, and to determine their recuperative capacity after the termination of the salt stress period. The greenh… Show more

“…from 5 December 2019 to 30 May 2020. The experimental setup was similar to that of a previous study by the authors [20]. It involved 24 polyvinyl chloride (PVC) lysimeters with an inner diameter of 300 mm and a surface area of 0.07 m 2 (Figure 1), arranged on levelled benches.…”

“…The green turf cover (GTC) percentage was calculated throughout this study by taking digital images of each lysimeter on each irrigation date, following the methodology by Ntoulas and Varsamos [20]. The GTC was assessed through digital image analysis using SigmaScan Pro Version 5.0 software (Systat Software Inc., San Jose, CA, USA), as outlined by Richardson et al [35].…”

“…Control pots were irrigated with distilled water. After the targeted salinity levels were achieved, the irrigation water depending on field capacity was applied for a period of seven weeks (March 07 to April 26 at each year) at greenhouse condition [25]. Fifty days after emergence, seedlings were taken by gentile washing the soil, and each seedling were separated into roots and shoots [16].…”
