PLANT MANAGEMENT NETWORK Launches
Applied Turfgrass Science

A new publication, Applied Turfgrass Science (www.appliedturfgrassscience.org) is now available for turfgrass professionals from the PLANT MANAGEMENT NETWORK (PMN). Applied Turfgrass Science is an electronic, peer-reviewed journal for golf course superintendents; sports, grounds, and landscape professionals; researchers; and educators worldwide. Applied Turfgrass Science is also a forum for turfgrass professionals to exchange ideas, promote new products, and discuss new initiatives, developments, and issues that face the turfgrass industry.

“We are very excited about this new journal as it provides a great outlet for applied turfgrass research and management of this information,” says Applied Turfgrass Science Editor Michael Richardson.

“Applied Turfgrass Science presents tremendous value to both researchers and end-users. Turfgrass researchers and educators benefit from the ability to quickly publish applied research in a peer-reviewed journal, and end-users benefit from information delivered in a timely, user-friendly format. We encourage scientists, extension personnel, educators, and turfgrass managers to explore the many benefits of Applied Turfgrass Science and the PLANT MANAGEMENT NETWORK,”
said Richardson.

Applied Turfgrass Science is currently accepting author manuscripts. Interested authors should visit www.plantmanagementnetwork.org/guidelines/. 
 

 Applied Turfgrass Science is the fourth journal published by PMN. Other journals published by PMN (www.plantmanagementnetwork.org) include Crop Management, Plant Health Progress, and Forage and Grazinglands. PMN also features field trial reports, including Biological and Cultural Tests for Control of Plant Diseases, Fungicide and Nematicide Tests, and Commodity Variety Trials, plus PMN Image Collections, PMN Education and Training Center, and a Plant Science Database that includes more than 4,000 plant and crop science documents provided by PMN partners.

PMN is a not-for-profit forum and communication source made possible by PMN Partners, providing applied, multidisciplinary plant management information.
