| Abstract/Contents: | SUMMARY: "Fungicides appeared to induce thatchiness in Kentucky bluegrass by increasing the rates of root and rhizome production and not by reducing the rate of litter decomposition in a Cornell University study. Fourteen fungicides, one nematicide and five mixed-fungicide programs were applied repeatedly (up to nine times per year), over a four-year period to field-grown Kentucky bluegrass turf. Measurements were made of thatch depths, root and leaf clippings weights, shear strength of sod, and decomposition rates for thatch implanted into the turfs. Compounds that caused thatch to become deeper than in the untreated control included benomyl, cadmium succinate, fenamiphos, iprodione, and manocozeb. Treatments in which these pesticides were used were characterized by sod shear strengths greater than in the control. Thatch accumulations were related mostly to the amounts of roots in the surface 4 centimeters. None of the fungicides studied significantly reduced the apparent rate of thatch decomposition." |
