Abstract/Contents: | Discusses trials conducted to "assess 1) impact of soil pH, cultivar and seeding rate and 2) mefenoxam (Subdue) fungicide and seeding rate on disease development." Results indicate that "soil pH had no obvious effect on the disease but a subtle increase in cover was observed at the lowest soil pH." Also states that "the two cultivars evaluated in the study had a similar response to the disease...[and] mefenoxam fungicide did not control the Pythium seedling disease nor did this fungicide affect ground cover during establishment." Also mentions a trial conducted on 'Greenwich' velvet bentgrass established as a putting green "to evaluate the management techniques of nitrogen fertilization, light-weight rolling, grooming, and growth regulation for effects on the quality of the putting green playing surface." Describes maintenance techniques used in the study and states that "all management factors produced obvious and expected affects on turf color" and mentions that "[nitrogen] fertilization and grooming were significant main effects on ball roll." Concludes that a ball roll distance of 2.9 to 3.2 m, the goal for putting greens in the northeastern United States, "would not be difficult to achieve on Greenwich velvet bentgrass." |
