結縷草屬（Zoysia）為早熟禾科（Poaceae）中的一屬，種類約有四至五種。蔓延狀的該種草狀植物，生長在中國、日本，及部分東南亞國家的平坦沙地。一般來說，結縷草發現者為奧地利植物學者Karl·von·Zois。 因為能夠適應溫度變化，且不用太過刻意洒水維持生命，因此今被大量種植為草坪，另外，也是高爾夫球場常用的草皮用植物之一。 这是一篇與植物相關的小作品。你可以通过编辑或修订扩充其内容。 查 论 编 取自“https://zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=結縷草屬&oldid=25405256” 分类：结缕草属 隐藏分类： 含有英語的條目 全部小作品 植物小作品
