Fig. 2 Canopy photosynthetic rate (Pn) (A) and photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) (B) of Kentucky bluegrass under optimum temperature and well-watered conditions (control), drought (D), heat (H), and the combination of two stresses H+D. Vertical bars indicate LSD values for treatment comparisons at a given day of treatment. Arrows indicate when plants were rewatered

Fig. 3 Root dry weight of Kentucky bluegrass under optimum temperature and well-watered conditions (control), drought (D), heat (H), and the combination of two stresses H+D in the 0- to 20-, 20- to 40-, and 40- to 60-cm soil layers at 25 d of D or H alone and 12 d of the combined stresses. Means followed by the same letters within each soil layer were not significantly different based on LSD test

Fig. 4 Effects of drought preconditioning on canopy photosynthetic rate (Pn) (A) and photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) (B) of Kentucky bluegrass under subsequent heat stress. Pre+H, drought preconditioning under subsequent heat stress; Non+H, non-preconditioning under heat stress; Pre+D+H, drought preconditioning under the combination of drought and heat stresses; Non+H+D, non-preconditioning under the combination of drought and heat stresses. Vertical bars indicate LSD values for treatment comparisons at a given day of treatment
