title: Selecting tolerant grass seedlings and analyzing the possibility for using aged refuse as sward soil.
abstract: In order to test the possibility for recycling use of aged refuse as sward soil, the study determined the responses of Lolium perenne L. (perennial ryegrass), Festuca arundinacea (tall fescue), and Poa annua (annual bluegrass) to its leaching. The growth of three seedlings was significantly inhibited after treatment, especially for longer treatment duration and higher concentration leaching; however, with the better growth and chlorophyll content for shorter time and lower concentration, tall fescue was more tolerant to the stress. Afterwards, several physiological responses of tall fescue were determined. For shorter treatment duration, antioxidant enzyme activities remained unchanged, and no obvious oxidative damage was observed. Prolonging exposure time, lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation occurred after treatment of higher concentration leaching, accompanying by changes of antioxidant status. It implicates that it is possible for using aged refuse as sward soil, and the critical point focused on selecting tolerant grass and controlling exposure condition.
