Abstract/Contents: | "Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne graminis) are gradually becoming more prevalent on golf courses throughout New England. These nematodes can be particularly damaging to turf, as a result of their intimate relationship with plant hosts. Symptomology is general in nature and difficult to diagnose. Typically, these and other nematodes are considered stress related diseases. Only through soil sampling and extractions can identification be made conclusively. Many grass species have been reported as being susceptible and no genetic resistance effective against Meloidogyne graminis has been identified. Control of these organisms can be a perennial problem and Nemacur is the only chemical registered for use on golf courses with nematode problems. Timing of application is also critical for efficacy against root-knot nematodes." |
