Abstract/Contents: | "A putting green in Bolton, MA consisting of a mixture of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass was chosen for this study. Top-dressing over the years has resulted in approximately 4 in. of sand soil. Mechanical analysis of the top 4 in. showed it to be 89.1% sand, 8% silt, and 2.9% clay. USDA criteria classify this soil as a coarse sand based on the sand subfractions. Neo-Tec is 50% sesame oil mixed in 50% lecithin and water. The treatment and control were replicated six times (plots were 6t ft x 6 ft) and completely randomized. Neo-Tec was applied at the rate of 2.94 oz/1,000 sq ft in approximately 55 gal water on Jun and again on 3 Jul. Nematodes were recovered by sieving/sugar flotation and identification to genus. Criconemella (ring) and Tylechorhynchus (stunt) nematodes were assessed. The data were subjected to analysis of variance and a test of LSD. There were no differences in turf color or thinning among the treatments. Neo-Tec did not significantly reduce ring or stunt populations. The summer of 2003 had considerable rainfall and it is possible that the excessive rainfall reduced the efficacy of the materials." |
