Abstract/Contents:"Pythium spp. were isolated from nonoverseeded bermudagrass and from bermudagrass overseeded with cool-season turfgrass species from October 2000 to July 2001 from two sites in Florida. Pythium spp. were isolated from nonoverseeded and overseeded, and fumigated and nonfumigated, bermudagrass plots from October 2001 to July 2002 from one of the two sites. The vast majority of isolates of Pythium spp. were obtained from the bermudagrass, rather than the cool-season turfgrass species (Poa trivialis or Lolium perenne) used as overseed. In the first year at the Ft. Lauderdale site, Pythium graminicola dominated (91% of isolates obtained). In the first year at the Gainesville site, P. graminicola (56% of isolates) and P. irregulare (36%) dominated; however, after fumigation and replanting, P. graminicola comprised only 11% of all isolates. P. irregulare comprised 30% of all isolates, but was found only in nonfumigated plots. A different species, P. ultimum var. ultimum, not isolated in the first year, was recovered (34% of isolates) from the replanted field in February and March. In preemergence pathogenicity tests, three of four isolates of P. irregulare were moderately to highly pathogenic on Poa trivialis, but not on L. perenne, and isolates of Pythium graminicola and P. ultimum var. ultimum were not pathogenic on either turfgrass species. Pathogenic Pythium spp. may survive from season to season on bermudagrass and, under favorable conditions, may cause damping-off or blight on the overseeded cool-season turfgrass."
