Just your average day @UTturfgrass ‼️

Mixtures are a simple means of herbicide resistance management. Here's a short video from @turfgirl24 highlighting research conducted in 2020 on herbicide mixtures for goosegrass control in bermudagrass. #TNturf @TennesseeGCSA @TnTurfAssoc @utextension https://t.co/0GEzkX4WIl

Is #PoaAnnua always an issue in your turf? Check out this short video from @UTTurfWeeds & @turfgirl24 explaining on-going research to better understand the biology of this species. @UTIAg @UTPlantSciences @UTAgResearch https://t.co/84hvvPwVZ2

What's it like to be a graduate student in turfgrass? @turfgirl24 & @TylerTalksTurf provide an inside look into their experience @UTPlantSciences cc: @WSSA_GSO @ACSGradStudents @UTKGradSchool https://t.co/zevvowWso5

A recent report from the SOAR foundation featured several UTIA researchers. The report, “Innovation to Profit,” highlights work led by Doug Hayes (BESS), Annette Wszelaki (Plant Sciences), and Jennifer DeBruyn (BESS) to improve the biodegradability of plastic mulches.

Great poster this morning from @UTPlantSciences student @ut_BENtgrass on potentially ALS resistant goosegrass at the Southern Weed Science Society meeting. Excited to see what his future in graduate school holds!

[UT Weed Diagnostics @WeedDiagnostics]

We are hard at work refining our agar assay for screening Poa for herbicide resistance to be used with other modes of action.
