Abstract/Contents:"Texas landscapes were severely affected by an extended period of drought during the hot summer months of 1980. Large areas of poorly developed and dying St. Augustinegrass on residential landscapes were observed from June to September. Field studies of Dallas area homelawns indicated a common occurence of a stolon die-back condition associated with dark brown-black lesions on stolon internodes. Laboratory observations and isolatioins from infected stolon internodes associated with severe diesase activity with a Nigrospora sp. tentatively identified as N. sphaerica (Sacc.) Mason. Inoculation studies demonstrated pathogenicity of the fungus on stolon internodes with greatest lesion activity at 27 C. Disease activity by the fungus was most severe on closely clipped or thinned turf where stolon internodes were exposed to desiccation and high temperature injury during the summer."
