In order to reduce the prune times, cost of management and maintenance, and provide a theoretical basis for the application of trinexapac-ethyl, two Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) cultivars, Tifsport and Tifgreen were used to investigate the effects of different trinexapac-ethyl concentration(0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 l/hm~2)and frequency(3, 6 and 10 d)on the growth performance, biomass and root/shoot ratio by randomized plot design. The results showed that the height, leaf and internode length and aboveground biomass could be reduced by the application of the trinexapac-ethyl, at the same time, the le...
