| Abstract/Contents: | "Dissimilatory sulfate reduction in the soil profile has been shown to be associated with pathogenic conditions in some highly maintained turfgrasses. The relationship is hypothesized to result form supplemental application of elemental sulfur and sulfur containing compounds. In affected soils, turfgrass vigor quickly declines; death may soon follow. Toxic metabolites such as sulfide, produced by reducing condition, may initiate the decline. These same metabolites, when reacting with metal cations, produce a black sulfide precipitate layer which further encourages reducing conditions by chemically scavenging oxygen and hindering drainage. The objectives of this preliminary research are to define the inputs leading to such reducing conditions and turf decline, and to develop cultural strategies for managing these inputs. |
