| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses "dollar spot disease caused by the fungus Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett...[which] attacks both warm- and cool-season species, and damage is most severe on low-cut, highly maintained sites." Presents a study conducted "to determine the effects of cultural practices on controlling dollar spot and the influence of leaf wetness duration on the development of dollar spot on Penncross creeping bentgrass." States other objectives of the field study, including "to determine whether mowing at different times (4 a.m., 10 a.m. or 10 p.m.) alters leaf wetness duration and affects dollar spot incidence on creeping bentgrass/annual bluegrass turf; whether mowing frequency (daily or on alternate days) affects dollar spot incidence; [and] whether using a squeegee to remove dew affects dollar spot incidence as effectively as mowing." States that the "study was conducted on established turf at the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station in St. Paul [Minnesota] in 2004 and 2005." Describes the data collection, stating that "air temperature, relative humidity and leaf wetness data were collected for later use in estimating leaf wetness duration." Discusses the results, including "dew removal"; "mower blades"; "squeegee vs. mowing"; and "controlled environment experiment." Concludes that "timing dew removal so that it divides the length of continuous leaf wetness in half and minimizes leaf wetness duration was the most effective in reducing dollar spot." |
