Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that turfgrass disease treatment involves more than applying fungicide. States that "while turfgrasses may be affected by diseases all year long, individual turfgrass diseases are prominent for only a few months each year, usually due to weather patterns and the resulting environmental effects." Lists four steps to disease management: "First, the disease must be correctly identified. Second, the eenvironmental conditions or management methods that are promoting infection and disease development must be determined. Third, identify the short-term management techniques that will alter or eliminate these conducive conditions or that will suppress the fungal pathogen while the disease is active. Fourth, (especiailly if this is a recurring disease problem), identify the long-term management techniques that can be implemented to prevent disease development or minimize the damage to the turfgrass from the disease." |
