Abstract/Contents:Profiles spring dead spot (SDS), "a major pathogen of bermudagrass, particularly in its northern range of adaptation where winter temperatures are lowest. SDS symptoms include large, bleached patches of turf that do not green up when the rest of the turf breaks dormancy in the spring." States that "control of SDS requires an integrated approach that uses (1) resistant bermudagrass varieties to limit disease, (2) cultural practices to encourage recovery and survival and (3) fungicide applications to manage disease as it occurs." Explains that "the development of SDS-resistant bermudagrass cultivars has been slow, primarily due to the time-consuming and costly process of field testing." Also discusses the effect of cultural practices on disease severity, stating that "nitrogen fertility, particularly with fast release sources of N [nitrogen], is one practice that can increase disease severity if applied in the late summer or early fall." States that "fungicide control efforts have also been extremely variable over time and among locations, making the development of recommendations extremely difficult" but that "overall, the best results have been seen with split applications of Rubigan that have either been watered in or applied in a large spray volume."
