Abstract/Contents:"Roundup Ready® creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) may provide a management tool to control annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) infestation in putting greens and fairways. Unfortunately, conversion of existing golf course greens and fairways can take several months. The objective of this study was to determine the best timing for application of Roundup® (glyphosate, N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) during conversion to Roundup Ready® creeping bentgrass to eliminate competition from conventional grasses. The study was conducted on an established 'Pencross' creeping bentgrass green and on fairway areas of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) and creeping bentgrass. One plot in each replication was stripped of sod and Roundup Ready® creeping bentgrass was seeded into bare soil. The remaining plots were core aerified, verticut, and overseeded. All areas were seeded on 3 Sept. 2002. Treatments included applications of 2.24 kg a.i. ha-1 glyphosate at intervals before and after seeding. The best timing of glyphosate application for fairway conversion was before seeding or shortly after seeding. Applications timings later than 28 days after seeding resulted in competition from conventional turf, thereby increasing the time required to achieve full cover of Roundup® Ready creeping bentgrass. It was determined that fairway areas seeded in late summer could be converted successfully and be open to play early the following spring. Conversions of green using these methods, however, would require that the area remain closed for several months after seeding, therefore additional research is being conducted at Iowa State University to develop other conversion methods for greens."
