Abstract/Contents: | Discusses Microdochium (pink snow mold), explaining that "despite its name, snow is not required for the development of pink snow mold. Under normal conditions, the fungus is most active at air temperatures ranging from 32-45 [degrees Fahrenheit]." States that "symptoms of pink snow mold differ depending on when [observed]. Pink snow mold symptoms, seen as snow cover melts away, are circular patches of dull white turfgrass matted together, sometimes with a pink ring surrounding the patch." Suggests that pink snow mold was a problem in the spring of 2006 because of "the consistently wet conditions" and "the early spring green-up." |
