Abstract/Contents:Profiles the Turf Pathology Diagnostic Laboratory at the University of California-Riverside, stating that "the staff inspects turf samples submitted to the lab by superintendents from across [California] for disease identification, basic salinity, pH levels and nitrate testing. The staff then prescribes appropriate control recommendations." Profiles Frank Wong, Ph.D., turfgrass pathologist, stating that "by being a high profile advocate of disease prevention, Wong has forged strong alliances among the turf community." Describes Wong's work at the laboratory, and concludes that "Wong hopes that by proving the value of an aggressive local turf diagnostic lab, support from the turf industry will grow."
