The Introduction to Turfgrass Science course in the Bowls Central Academy has a new unit called C3 and C4 Photosynthesis: A Brief Primer
The unit covers the basic principles of Photosynthesis and then digs a bit deeper into the differences between Cool Season and Warm Season Photosynthesis to explore the fascinating sugar production process going every day in our turf.
The Unit is available now in the Academy.
Members will find it under the Course link in the My Account area.
The Introduction to Turfgrass Science course in the Bowls Central Academy has been updated to include a new Unit on Grass Seed Production, including a closer look at how new gras seed cultivars are developed. The unit goes in depth to look at the seed and development and production process and includes: Breeding, Testing, Preparation for Commercial Availability, Control of Quality, Labelling and Record Keeping, Shelf Life of Seed, Reliable Replication of Specific Cultivars.
The Unit is available now in the Academy.

The micro-life in the soil makes nutrients, the building blocks of plant tissue, available in plant useable form
The main difference between the two groups is the way in which they photosynthesise or produce food for themselves. The first product of photosynthesis in cool season grasses is a 3 Carbon sugar molecule so these grasses are commonly referred to as C3 grasses. In warm season grasses the first
Cytokinins, auxins, and gibberellins are three important plant hormones that play crucial roles in plant growth, development, and overall health.
