Abstract/Contents: | Presents a research initiative to study the effects of anthracnose basal rot and the annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) on annual bluegrass (Poa annua). Explains that researchers have lauched a survey for golf course superintendents across North America to participate in. Lists the goals of the initiatve, including to "fill critical gaps in [the] understanding of the anthracnose pathogen and ABW"; "identify and develop...control options for suppressing anthracnose"; "develop improved integrated pest management (IPM) decision tools for anthracnose management"; and to "develop best management practices for annual bluegrass to help reduce economic and environmental costs." Concludes that "although this project involves numerous turfgrass researchers, the participation of turf managers will be essential to its success. Researchers are optimistic about finding improved management strategies for suppressing anthracnose." |
