Abstract/Contents:"Chemical growth regulation on golf putting greens has become commonplace in recent years. Turf managers are currently using these materials at increased rates and decreased intervals; and the effects on anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum cereale, are unknown. Nineteen treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Trinexapac-ethyl (TE) was applied at various rates (0.3-, 0.4-, and 0.6-L ha-1) and intervals (7-, 14-d) April to September 2005 and 2006. Mefluidide (2.2-L ha-1) or ethephon (15.9-L ha-1) was applied 6 and 20 April 2005 or 31 March and 12 April 2006 both without and with triexapac-ethyl (0.4-L ha-1) applied at two intervals (7- or 14-d) throughout the season. Anthracnose incidence declined linearly with increased TE rate in 2006, but not in 2005. Anthracnose damage was reduced 18-30% on 3 and 21 July 2006 by TE applied every 7-d compared to 14-d (mean of two rates). Interval of TE did not significantly affect disease in 2005. Mefluidide (ME), without and with TE, reduced disease 51% on 2 July 2005, and 14-39% in 2006. However, ME alone had 38-67% and 19-61% greater disease than the combinations of ME + TE in 2005 and 2006, respectively. No difference was observed between TE and ME + TE in either year. Ethephon (ET), with and without TE, had 30-51% and 24-78% less disease than untreated turf in 2005 and 2006, respectively. Ethephon alone was not different from combinations of ET+ TE over both years. Trinexapac-ethyl was 45% less effective than ET + TE over both years. Trinexapac-ethyl was 45% less effective than ET + TE at reducing anthracnose on 15 July 2005, and 52% less effective on 3 July 2006. Ethephon, without and with TE, had 15-73% less disease in 2006 than ME without and with TE. There is no difference between ET and ME in 2005."
