Changes in TQ and TCI of Guanzhong and Yangjiang turfgrasses were monitored under multiple shade intensities over time (Table 1). No significant differences in TQ and TCI at any shade intensity were observed in Yangjiang after five days (d) of shade exposure compared to CK, but significant decreases were observed in Guanzhong. Obviously, with the increased shading treatment levels and days, the TQ and TCI in Guanzhong decreased significantly compared with that in Yangjiang. After 20 d of shade exposure, TQ and TCI of Yangjiang were only significantly different from the control under 90.6% shade but were still above a score of 6 that was still higher than the minimal acceptable quality. However, the TQ and TCI scores for Guanzhong declined below an acceptable value of 5 in 61.2% and 90.6% shade. After 35 and 50 d of shade exposure, TQ and TCI scores exhibited a continued decline in both cultivars under 61.2% and 90.6% shade. In comparison with Guanzhong, the TQ and TCI scores for Yangjiang after 50 d of 90.6% shade exposure never fell below 5. Thus, Yangjiang clearly maintains better TQ and TCI under prolonged and intense shade compared with Guanzhong.

-
After 50 d shade stress, both cultivars exhibited reduced biomass accumulation as shade intensity increased (Table 2). However, the total biomass (TB), above-ground biomass (AGB), and below-ground biomass (BGB) of Yangjiang were all significantly higher than those of Guanzhong, especially under 61.2% and 90.6% shade levels. A slight but insignificant decrease in the accumulation of all three types of biomass occurred when both cultivars were subjected to 30.4% shade. Significant reductions in biomass were noticeable once shade intensity reached a moderate level of 61.2%. Under 61.2% and 90.6% shade treaments, the TB in Guanzhong were significantly decreased 17.65% and 21.43% than that in Yangjiang, respectively. Additionally, the ratio of above-ground to below-ground biomass (RAB) for both cultivars increased as shade intensity increased. However, the RAB for Yangjiang was greater than Guanzhong at all levels of shade intensity. Two cultivars showed the same trend of allocating more biomass to shoots than roots under shade stress indicting by 65.8% of AGB and 56.7% of BGB in Yangjiang and 63.3% of AGB and 53.8% of BGB in Guanzhong contrasting with controls under 90.6% shade level. In comparison, the AGB and BGB in Yangjiang exhibited significantly 31.58% and 21.43% higher than that in Guanzhong, respectively.

-
The average daily growth rate of Guanzhong and Yangjiang declined with increasing shade intensity and prolonged exposure to shaded conditions (Table 3). Compared to CK, the growth rate of Guanzhong decreased by 34.93% whereas the growth rate of Yangjiang decreased by 12.36% when exposed to 15 d of 30.4% shade. After 30 d of 61.2% shade, the growth rate of Guanzhong and Yangjiang decreased by 79.39% and 75.29% in comparison with CK, respectively. After 45 d of 90.6% shade, the growth rate of Guanzhong and Yangjiang decreased by 89.70% and 77.65% than that in CK, respectively. Notably, the average daily growth rate of Yangjiang was lower than in Guanzhong under all shaded conditions. After 30 d of 30.4% shade, the growth rate of Yangjiang lower 36.79% than that in Guanzhong. Meanwhile, the daily growth rate decreased 15.00% in Yangjiang compared to Guanzhong under 45 d of 61.2% shade level. It was also worth noting that the daily growth rate has no significant difference in Yangjiang compared to Guanzhong under 30 and 45 d of 90.6% shade treatment. In summary, the growth rate of Yangjiang was impacted less by shade stress than Guanzhong.

-
Chl can be an indicator of turfgrass leaf color intensity for examining turf quality and turf visual esthetic. Shading gradients had a distinct effect on chlorophyll (Chl) abundance for both Guanzhong and Yangjiang (Table 4). As shade intensity increased, the abundance of Chla, Chlb, and total Chl declined for both cultivars. However, Chla, Chlb, and total Chl levels were higher in Yangjiang compared with Guanzhong under all shade treatments. When exposed to 30.4% shade, Chla, Chlb, and total Chl contents decreased in Guanzhong by 6.64%, 6.93%, and 6.83% compared with CK, respectively. The abundance of Chla, Chlb, and total Chl in Yangjiang decreased by 2.57%, 5.47%, and 4.51% than that in CK with 30.4% shade treatment, respectively. When exposed to 61.2% shade, Chla and Chlb contents in Yangjiang were 13.79% and 19.71% higher than in Guanzhong, respectively. This trend was the same when the cultivars were exposed to 90.6% shade. In particular, the total Chl was remarkably higher 18.41% in Yangjiang compared with Guanzhong under 90.6% shade level. Finally, the ratio of Chla/b was lower in Yangjiang compared with Guanzhong due to more Chlb accumulation as the shade intensity increased. Moreover, Chla/b had significant difference between the two cultivars only under 90.6% shading treatment, in which Guanzhong was 17.78% higher than Yangjiang.

-
To reflect the status of plant photosynthesis, chlorophyll a (Chla) fluorescence was measured in two cultivars. The value of quenching coefficient (qP), electron transfer rate (ETR), and maximal fluorescence (Fv/Fm) in both cultivars under shade treatments decreased relative to the un-shaded condition. Yangjiang exhibited a smaller decline in these metrics compared with Guanzhong under multiple shade conditions (Fig. 2). This difference was particularly stark at 61.2% shade when Yangjiang had a significantly higher qP than Guanzhong with no significant differences in qP at 30.4% or 90.6% shade (Fig. 2a). Yangjiang also had significantly higher ETR and Fv/Fm values than Guangzhong at all shade intensities except for the un-shaded control (Fig. 2b & c). In general, Yangjiang exhibited greater photochemical capacity to adapt to severe shading conditions than Guanzhong.

Changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant enzyme activities
-
When exposed to 30.4% shade, the activity of the antioxidant enzymes catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and peroxidase (POD) increased relative to the controls for both Yangjiang and Guanzhong, and especially the peaks of activities in Yangjiang persisted at 61.2% shade level. However, only the SOD activity was notably increased by 13.20% in Yangjiang than in Guanzhong under 30.4% shade, while the POD and CAT activities in both cultivars had no significant difference. As the shading intensities increased, CAT, SOD and POD showed a decreased trend for both cultivars, however, these enzymes activities in Guanzhong decreased fast and significantly lower than Yangjiang (Fig. 3a−c). In particular, the POD and CAT activities in Yangjiang were significantly higher by 58.33% and 32.54% than those in Guanzhong under 90.6% shade. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation increased with increasing shade intensity for both cultivars (Fig. 3d). Obviously, in comparison with Guanzhong, the content of H2O2 was significant decreased 20.23% and 22.69% in Yangjiang in 61.2% and 90.6% shade, respectively. In general, antioxidant enzyme activities were higher and H2O2 accumulation was lower in Yangjiang compared with Guanzhong at each shade intensity (Fig. 3d).

Effects of shade on leaf anatomy
-
Overall leaf thickness and thickness of the upper and lower epidermal cells of both Guanzhong and Yangjiang were significantly reduced under all shade levels (Table 5). With 61.2% shade, the leaf thickness of Guanzhong was reduced by 16.01% relative to the CK whereas that of Yangjiang was only decreased by 9.85% (Table 5). A similar trend was observed for upper epidermal cell thickness, which was decreased by 37.77% and 61.99%, respectively, in Guanzhong compared with CK under 61.2% and 90.6% shade (Table 5). Upper epidermal cell thickness in Yangjiang leaves compared to CK was reduced by 20.37% and 36.35% under 61.2% and 90.6% shade, respectively (Table 5). Compared with the CK, the thickness of lower epidermal cells for both turfgrasses decreased sharply by up to 60.90% for Guanzhong and 52.36% for Yangjiang under 90.9% shade (Table 5). The diameter of the vascular bundle in Guanzhong and Yangjiang leaves also decreased significantly (Fig. 4). Under control condition, Guanzhong and Yangjiang had a typical complete nearly circular Kranz anatomical structure containing the outer layer of mesophyll cells and the inner layer of vascular bundle sheath cells (Fig. 4). With increasing shading levels, the cell volume of the Kranz exhibited a decrease trend in both cultivars. Comparatively, Guanzhong had greater decrease in volume of Kranz cells (Fig. 4).

The two Chinese bermudagrass cultivars used in this study, Yangjiang (Cynodon dactylon Yangjiang) and Guanzhong (Cynodon dactylon Guanzhong), were developed by Jiangsu Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences (China). Sods of the two cultivars were collected at the Turf Research Centre of Northeast Agricultural University (Harbin, China) and cultivated in plastic containers 50 cm long, 30 cm wide, and 15 cm high. The cultivation substrate was local black loam soil (16.8 g·kg−1 of organic matter and pH 7.0). The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse for establishing the canopy and roots. The greenhouse environment was 65% ± 5% relative humidity, 13 h illumination (1,429 ± 89 µmol·m−2·s−1), and 30°C/25 °C (day/night). During cultivation, turfgrasses were clipped to about 4.5 cm every week and watered every other day with 1,000 mL water for each container (12 cm water in depth). One month after planting, a gradient of shading treatments was imposed for both cultivars.
Shade treatments
-
The experiment was conducted using a two-factor randomized block design with four levels of shading treatments using black shading cloth from 15 July 2019 to 3 September 2019. There were four replicates for each shading level for each cultivar. Shade levels were as follows: 30.4% (49.35 ± 1.94 mol·m−2·d−1, pots were covered with a single layer of a shade cloth), 61.2% (27.51 ± 1.79 mol·m−2·d−1, pots were covered with two layers of a shade cloth), 90.6% (6.66 ± 0.42 mol·m−2·d−1, pots were covered with three layers of a shade cloth), and the un-shaded control group (66.73 ± 4.17 mol·m−2·d−1). The shade cloths were only removed for short periods (< 15 min) from covered pots to trim and collect data during the treatments and on assessment dates. Light intensity was monitored by a light meter (Spectrum 3413F, US), with the levels expressed as [(PARCK − PARshade) / PARCK] × 100%, where PAR (mol·m−2·d−1) was the photosynthetic active radiation represented by daily light integral[11].
Measurements
Turf quality (TQ) and turf color intensity (TCI)
-
According to a combination of the NTEP (The National Turfgrass Evaluation Program) standard and general visual scoring method, TQ and TCI of the two cultivars were measured after shading treatment for 5, 20, 35, and 50 d. A rating scale of 1 through 9 were recorded with 9, 5, and 1 representing excellent, the lowest acceptable value, and very poor, respectively[35,36]. Three replications for each cultivar were used in each treatment.
Growth rate and biomass
-
Daily growth rate was recorded during the shading period by selecting 10 random locations in the turfgrass container and recording the height of the grass using a ruler. The average growth rate was obtained by measuring the daily increment in shading periods of 1 to 15, 16 to 30, and 31 to 45 d, separately. Plants were harvested and the dry weight of above-ground biomass (AGB) and below-ground biomass (BGB) was measured as described by Saud et al.[37]. The total biomass (TB) was the sum of AGB and BGB. The ratio of above- to below-ground biomass (RAB) was calculated by dividing AGB by BGB.
Chlorophyll (Chl) content and chlorophyll a fluorescence
-
After shading treatment for 50 d, the leaves of two cultivars were collection for Chl content measurement. The abundance of Chl and Chla was determined as previously described by Xie et al.[14]. Briefly, 0.1 g fresh leaf of each sample was weighed into a 5 ml tube and added 2 ml of 95% ethanol. After 72 h of dark treatment, the extract solution was measured absorbance at 665 nm, 649 nm, and 470 nm using a spectrophotometer (UV-2450). Total Chl is equal to Chla plus Chlb. The ratio of Chla to Chlb was represented by Chla/b. Chl fluorescence parameters were measured using a Chla fluorescence imaging system (IMAGING-PAM, Walz, Germany). The samples handled with shading stress for 50 d were first dark treated for 20 min. The selected sample's area of interest (AOI) value (Ft) was adjusted to be between 0.1 and 0.2, and the light intensity for actinic light parameters was set to 86 µmol·m−2·s−1. Saturation pulse light frequency was set to 20 s/times and the intensity was set to 4,000 µmol m−2·s−1. The photochemical quenching coefficient (qP), electron transfer rate (ETR), and PSII maximum chemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) were all determined. Four replications for each cultivar were used in each treatment.
Quantification of antioxidant enzyme activities and H2O2
-
The leaves of two cultivars were collected after shading 50 d to measure antioxidant enzyme activities and H2O2 content. A total of 0.5 g of fresh leaves were ground in 2 mL of 50 mM phosphate extraction buffer (pH 7.8) at 5−10 °C. The supernatant was collected by centrifuging the mixture at 12,000g for 15 min at 4 °C. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) activities as well as the abundance of H2O2 were quantified following the methods described by Dong et al.[15]. Four replications for each cultivar were used in each treatment.
Leaf anatomical structures
-
Fully developed leaves after shading for 50 d were cut into 0.5 cm segments and the middle part of the leaf was embedded in a formalin aceto-alcohol (FAA) mixture for tissue fixation. Detailed experimental steps for making paraffin sections are described by Xie et al.[14]. Leaf anatomy was observed using a light microscope (BX61, OLYMPUS, and Tokyo Japan).
Data analysis
-
The experiment was performed using a two-factor randomized block design with four biological and three technical replicates. Statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS v10.0 software (SPSS, Inc., Chicago IL, USA). Statistically significant differences were calculated based on two-way ANOVA, with p < 0.05 as the critical significance level. The tables were made using Microsoft Excel 2016 and graphs were plotted using Prism v9.0 (GraphPad Company, San Diego, CA, USA).

Abstract: Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) shade tolerance is a trait of immense importance to the turfgrass industry. However, little is known about shade tolerance of turf-type bermudagrass native to China. Additional knowledge of the mechanism of shade tolerance in bermudagrass is required to identify specific plant features that promote shade tolerance and assist breeding efforts worldwide. This study examines shade tolerance of two different bermudagrass cultivars, Yangjiang (prostrate form) and Guanzhong (upright form), which were developed in China. Each cultivar was subjected to 0, 30.4, 61.2, and 90.6% shade levels during growth and assessed for turf quality, turfgrass color intensity, biomass allocation, growth rate, antioxidant enzyme activity, leaf anatomy, and photochemical properties. Results generally demonstrated that turf quality and turf color intensity were lower in Guanzhong compared with Yangjiang on the 90.6% shade testing days. Yangjiang exhibited a less severe reduction of growth rate, leaf thickness, root to shoot ratio, and chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b ratio (Chla/b) under 90.6% shade compared with Guanzhong. Both cultivars exhibited a decrease in photochemical efficiency as determined by reduced qP, ETR, and Fv/Fm values. Photochemical efficiency was impacted less in Yangjian, and superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) enzymes activities were greater than in Guanzhong when exposed to severe shade. When exposed to 90.6% shade level, Yangjiang had better turf quality than Guanzhong as determined by morphological, anatomical, and physiological features. Breeding efforts focused on these shade tolerance features will lead to improved bermudagrass germplasm and aid turf management in shade environments.
