Abstract/Contents:"An experimental compound under development by DuPont was applied to golf course rough turf (maintained at 2 to 3.5 inches) on 5 Jul 2005 and sampled 16 Sep to determine the efficacy of the compound against Japanese beetle (JB) and European chafer (EC) larvae. The test was conducted at Stockbridge Golf Club, Stockbridge, MA. The conditions at the time of application were as follows: air temp, 79Ā° F; soil temp, 72Ā° F; water pH, 7.1; soil pH 7.4, buffered pH 7.3; CEC 13.7 Meq/100g; scattered clouds, calm. Treatment plots were 8 ^D#x 8 ft, replicated five times, and arranged in a CRB design. All sprayable formulations were applied with a watering can (3 qt water per plot). All granular formulations were applied using a jar with a perforated lid. Plots were irrigated with 0.2 inch of water within 1 h after application. Product efficacy was evaluated on 16 Sep by inspecting (on site) five 4.25-inch-diameter cores from near the center of each plot. Each core was recorded separately, and all counts were included in statistical analyses (Fisher's Protected LSD, P ā‰¤ 0.05). The total grub population in untreated check plots was at or slightly above the commonly accepted threshold population (10 to 15 larvae per sq ft). All treatments reduced insect populations of both species significantly, including Merit 75WP and Merit 0.5G, which were included as industry standards."
