Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted to determine the most efficient fungicides for snow mold control. States that "a major difficulty in managing snow molds originates fom the complex nature of the causal agents of snow molds...snow mold symptoms may indicate combinations of two different genera, four different species and three different varieties of fungi." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "to evaluate the efficacy of fungicides for snow molds, [researchers] established field plots at two golf courses in Wisconsin: Sentryworld Golf Course in Stevens Point and Gateway Golf Course in Land O' Lakes...Field plots...were arranged in a split-plot design." Reports that "snow mold disease was greater in Land O' Lakes because there were more snow-cover days and lower temperatures than in Stevens Point...In general, Revere 4000 4F (PCNB), Banner Maxx (propiconazole), Terranb SP (chloroneb), Dithane 37WF (mancozeb) and Eagle 20EW (myclobutanil) significantly reduced disease severity...against all snow mold pathogens at Stevens Point, where the disease pressure was low, but only Revere 4000 4F and Banner Maxx maintained relatively consistent efficacy...in controlling two or more pathogens at Land O' Lakes, where disease pressure was high." Concludes that "the first step in developing a snow mold fungicide program is to choose the appropriate fungicides based on the level of disease pressure and the species of snow mold fungi on the golf course. For example...field data indicate that for an area with more than 120 days of heavy snow, the best bet is Revere 4000 4F or Compass 50WDG for pink snow mold; Banner Maxx, Terraneb SP or Daconil WeatherStik (chlorothalonil) for gray snow mold; and Banner Maxx for speckled snow mold."
