Abstract/Contents:"Reseachers at Cornell University tested the hypothesis that repeated applications of fungicides to putting greens would have major impacts on microbial populations of both foliar and soil-borne microbes. [Surprisingly], this was not the case. Their results include: The total number of fungal propagules detected was greater in soil at the start of the season than later, but there were no significant effects even after the season-long application of fungicides, regardless of the fungicide applied. On leaves, there were no significant effects of fungicide applications on total numbers of fungi, regardless of time or fungicide application. Most of the fungi detected were in the genus Trichoderma. The relative numbers of filamentous fungi versus yeasts changed substantially on turf leaves as evidenced by both the numbers and plate appearances. However, there was no significant difference in total microbial metabolic activity among fungicide treatments. It does not appear that repeated applications of fungicides have major impacts on soil microbial communities."
