Abstract/Contents:"A single fall application of benomyl and two related fungicides, methyl [1-[[(5-cyanopentyl)amino]carbonyl]-1H- benzimidazol-2-yl] and 2-(methoxycarbamoyl)benzimidazole along with triarimol, gave excellent control of stripe smut (Ustilago striiformis) in 'Merion' Kentucky bluegrass turf. Thiophanate methyl was less effective, and thiabendazole was ineffective under the same trial conditions. Application of these systemic fungicides to Merion turf aggravateda smut-associated infections of Helminthosporium vagans and thereby adversely affected sward density. Pentachlor-onitrobenzene (PCNB) maintained good sward density primarily through suppression of H. vagans, because its direct effect in reducing stripe smut was marginal. In combined applications, the complementary activity of some systemic fungicides and PCNB in controlling disease and maintaining turf quality was demonstrated. Anilazine and chloroneb were ineffective substitutes for PCNB. A combined application of benomyl at 4 oz active ingredient and PCNB at 6 oz active ingredient per 1000 ft2 applied in the fall is recommended as a practical means of controlling stripe smut in Merion turf."
