Abstract/Contents:Presents a research project conducted to "determine the influence of management practices on the incidence and severity of anthracnose on annual bluegrass putting green turf." States that an "initial study was established in 2003 to evaluate the impact of...putting green management...on anthracnose." Reports that "after three years of observation, it was evident that maintaining adequate nitrogen fertilization...is critical to reducing anthracnose severity on annual bluegrass putting greens." Explains that "prior to...research, ultra-low mowing (<3.2 mm [millimeters]), increased mowing frequency, and lightweight rolling were thought to increase anthracnose severity." Reports that "acceptable ball roll distance (2.9 to 3.2 meters) was obtained at 3.2- to 3.6 mm mowing height when combined with either doublecutting everyday and/or vibratory rolling every other day without increasing (and in many cases reducing) anthracnose severity." Discuses the potential effects of seedhead suppression and vegetative growth regulation, topdressing practices, irrigation management, and equipment traffic stress on anthracnose severity. Lists "best management practices for anthracnose control", including nitrogen application, mowing and rolling, the use of plant growth regulators (PGRs), irrigation, and topdressing.
