| Abstract/Contents: | "This experiment was conducted to determine the effectiveness of pyrethroid and chlorpyrifos formulations to reduce natural adult populations of ABW on a golf course fairway in Bedford County. The fairway consisted primarily of annual bluegrass (70%) and Kentucky bluegrass (30%). Applications were made when flowering dogwood was in full bloom. Treatment plots were 5 x 6 ft, arranged in a RCB design and replicated four times. Liquid formulations were applied in 1 gal of water with a hand held sprinkling can followed with another gal of water. At treatment time (28 Apr), the following soil and environmental conditions existed: air temperature, 56°F; soil temperature at 1 inch depth, 60°F; soil temperature at 2 inch depth, 59°F; RH, 52%; amount of thatch, 0.1875-0.25 inch; soil textural class, silt loam; soil particle analysis: 23.0% sand, 57.3% silt, 19.6% clay; soil percent water (percent by wt), 31.2; organic matter, 6.3%; soil pH, 5.8; water pH, 7; application time, noon; and clear skies. Granular formulations only were irrigated with 0.11 inch water immediately after treatment. Posttreatment counts were made on 4 Jun. ABW control was evaluated by removing two 4 inch cup cutter sod samples from each replicate and recording the total number of ABW life stages (larva, pupa, adult) per sample. Totals were then converted to a ft count. ABW adults were actively observed on golf course fairways, greens, and roughs before treatment. All treatments provided significant control. The newly introduced pyrethroid formulations DeltaGard G and SC provided excellent reduction in comparison to Simitar [Scimitar] and dursban treatments. No phytotoxicity was noted." |
