Abstract/Contents:"A recent survey revealed that several fungi may be associated with red thread disease (pink patch or Corticium disease) of turfgrasses. The fungi isolated from such diseased turf fell into two categories: those with pink mycelium bearing no clamp connections and those with pink, clamped mycelium. Isolates without clamp connections were all identified as Laetisaria fuciformis (McAlp) Burds. and this fungus appears to be the predominant incitant of typical red thread disease in Rhode Island and several other locations where the disease commonly occurs. Isolates with clamp connections comprised a heterogenous group of fungi, including Athelia fuciformis (Wakef.) Burds., as well as other basidiomycetes with pink mycelium. Physiological and pathological studies with fungi in the two categories showed consistent differences which may explain previous inconsistencies observed on the incidence of the disease and its control by cultural and chemical means."
