| Abstract/Contents: | "Black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel), is a key pest of turfgrasses, such as creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) on golf course putting greens, tee boxes and fairways. Golf courses typically require high levels of maintenance to sustain their aesthetic properties, thus superintendents routinely rely upon cultural and chemical treatments to accomplish this objective. Four commonly-used turfgrass management agents were evaluated for their effects on black cutworm feeding preferences, development, and survival. Treatments were applied to 'Penncross' creeping bentgrass, and included: 1) a silicate-based biostimulant (StandUp™); 2) a plant growth regulator (trinexapac-ethyl, Primo™); 3) a boscalid-based fungicide (boscalid, Emerald™); and 4) a moisture-controlling agent (oxirane-methyloxirane, DewCure™). The treatments were evaluated in a feeding preference test and a development and survival assay in the laboratory in early 2008. The results of this study indicate that there are no differences in feeding preferences or development of black cutworm larvae fed the chemically-treated vs. control plant material. Our results suggest that the boscalid-based fungicide (Emerald™) may reduce the survival of black cutworms to adulthood, but may not provide meaningful suppression of damaging larvae." |
