| Abstract/Contents: | "Fungicide use on plant growth retardant (PGR) treated turfgrass prevented or delayed fungal induced disease development but brought about changes in agronomic characteristics of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) and red fescue (Festuca rubra L.). Applying fungicides during the week of pgr application and biweekly thereafter prevented the loss of color and density commonly resulting from pgr use and greatly enhanced overall turf appearance. Fungicide use restricted the encroachment of crabgrass (Digitaria sp.) and other invasive grass or weed species but encouraged the exsertion of seedheads. Fungicide application promoted regrowth and shortened the duration of growth retardation." |
