| Abstract/Contents: | "Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis 'Classic') established either from seed or sod in a subsoil amended with a commercial composted poultry litter (2-2-2 N/P2O5/K2O; Borderline LLC, Baker, WV), was evaluated for the incidence of Drechslera leaf spot. The study was designed as a randomized complete block with four replicated 10x15-ft plots. The top 8 in of the sit loam was removed to simulate construction disturbance prior to establishing plots in Sept. 2003. Compost was then incorporated into the upper 5 in of the subsoil at regimes of 0,10,20 or 40% vol/vol. The turf was maintained at a mowing height of 3 in during the growing season. Two hundred individual leaf samples from five arbitrarily chosen 1 sq ft areas were examined for the presence of Drechslera leaf spot during late June and early July 2004. Percentage of infected leaves were determined. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and means separated by LSD (P=0.05). Our data suggested that higher regimes of composted poultry litter in the subsoil resulted in lower incidence of Drechslera leaf spot in newly established Kentucky bluegrass. A deviation from this trend, however, was observed for seeded grass on June 28th, where plots with 0% compost exhibited low disease incidence, for reasons not clearly understood. We speculate that the vigor and health of the grass that received compost treatments, which appeared better than grass with no compost, contributed toward their ability to better resist the disease. Severity of the disease si expected to be monitored in 2005." |
