Abstract/Contents: | "Several composts, which were included in both bioassays and field trials, were found to be suppressive to Pythium graminicola on creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris). This study was started to determine the the role of the actinomycetes present in these composts in this suppression. Of 104 strains of actinomycetes isolated from a variety of composts, 85% were found to suppress seed rot and damping-off caused by Pythium graminicola in bioassays. Eight consistently-suppressive strains were included in a field trial in which actinomycete-infested compost-amended sand was applied as a monthly top-dressing. No strain gave significant control of Pythium root rot or Brown patch, while 5 strains were shown to significantly control Dollar spot. These results illustrate both the potential and the limitations of using compost-inhabiting actinomycetes for biocontrol of soil-borne diseases of turfgrass." |
