| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of biological controls to annual bluegrass, explaining that "the distinct disadvantage of broad spectrum herbicides is that non-target plants may also be affected." Reports that "a naturally occurring bacterium that attacks annual bluegrass was found in Michigan in 1984 and 1985." States that "the weed was killed within one week after inoculation" and that "in all experiments, the Kentucky bluegrass and creeping bentgrass continued to grow undisturbed." Concludes that "biological herbicides may provide effective alternatives to chemical pesticides, particularly those that are harmful to people and the environment." |
