World Cup announcer says FIFA's grass mandate will be a 'huge conversation' regarding NFL's turf fields
Seven NFL stadiums are installing grass fields to comply with FIFA regulations for this summer's World Cup, and Fox Sports' Stu Holden believes there could be a ripple effect. Half the league’s stadiums use turf, despite NFLPA Executive Director Lloyd Howell saying that 92% of the league’s players prefer grass. Despite NFL players begging for grass and being told no, the stadiums had no choice but to, as NFLPA head J.C. Tretter once said, "roll out the green carpet of grass.
The perfect pitch is the goal for World Cup grass growers
The perfect pitch is the goal for World Cup grass growers WINNIPEG, Manitoba, June 4 : When billions of fans tune in to the 2026 World Cup, they will be witnessing the culmination of a global grass-growing mission that has scientists, farmers and turf specialists sweating as much as the players. From Mexico to Canada, across 16 stadiums in wildly different climates, the continental tournament is putting turf science to its ultimate test. The goal: creating living surfaces that can withstand...

The World Cup pitches are the result of years of engineering to find just the right grass
The World Cup pitches are the result of years of engineering to find just the right grass Andrew Zinin Lead Editor The World Cup pitches cover so much ground they'll be hard to ignore. The crews that put them there would prefer if fans didn't notice them at all. While it took a herculean effort to engineer the right grass for the different stadiums and to make sure it's in pristine condition for the duration of the tournament, the goal is that it never really attracts attention.

Night-time control of carbohydrate availability in grasses differs radically from that in Arabidopsis
Grass leaves reportedly accumulate sucrose during the day then export it to other organs at night. The control of export at night is not understood. In contrast, Arabidopsis leaves accumulate starch then convert it to sucrose for export at night.
Convergent genome- and gene-level constraints shape repeated environmental adaptation in grasses
Grasses (Poaceae) dominate terrestrial ecosystems and sustain global food security, yet the genomic principles enabling their repeated adaptation to extreme environments remain unresolved. Combining dense phylogenomic sampling, global environmental data, and genomic large language models (gLLMs), we characterize the mutational targets underlying environmental adaptation across 707 genomes from 569 species spanning 17 climate zones. We identify 19-30 phylogenetically independent transitions...
