| Abstract/Contents: | "For the second consecutive year, a putting green in Bolton, MA was chosen for the evaluation of Neo-Tec, a sesame oil product. In 2004, a 2X rate of Neo-Tec was applied three times as opposed to a 1X rate applied twice in 2003. The green consisted of a mixture of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass. Top-dressing over the years resulted in approximately 4 in. of sandy 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 6 ft x 6ft) and completely randomized. Neo-Tec was applied at the rate of 5.88 oz/1,000 sq ft in approximately 55 gal water on 25 May, and again on 8 and 23 Jun. Nematodes were recovered by wet sieving/sugar flotation and identified to genus. Criconemella (ring) and Tylenchorhynchus (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 but the nematode populations were below damaging levels. Neo-Tec did not significantly reduce ring or stunt populations; although, the Neo-Tec treated ring populations tended to lag being the untreated control. This was the second consecutive year for testing Neo-Tec on these plots." |
