Abstract/Contents:"Successful biological control of yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) by P. canaliculata (P.c.) in field studies probably required increase in disease development following early-season application of the fungus. In greenhouse studies, mean tuber biomass (number of tubers x weight/tuber) for plants inoculated with P.c. 6 or 10 wk after planting was 18.2 and 15.2 g/pot, respectively, compared with 19.5 g from the controls. Inoculation of C. esculentus on a weekly basis beginning 4 wk after planting resulted in mean biomass values of 10.8, 8.1, 6.9, 5.9 and 5.9 g for 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 inoculations, respectively. Reduction in tuber biomass from treatment with P.c. occurred under a 16-hr and not under a 13-hr photoperiod. These results suggest that plant age at the time of inoculation is an important factor in biocontrol of nutsedge."
