Abstract/Contents: | Describes the BioJect System, stating that it was developed by Ecosoil Inc., and it is "capable of delivering an organism, proven in the laboratory to provide biological control of dollar spot, brown patch and pythium diseases of turf." Presents research at the University of Massachusetts to evaluate BioJect's ability to suppress dollar spot on fairways and nematodes on greens, and the ability of BioJect to "distribute the bio-control organism through the system." Concludes that "when applied in the correct amount [the BioJect] is capabe of eliminating or reducing the need for some fungicides. However, the inadequacies of the BioJect System to deliver the populations needed for control leaves many questions unanswered. So the answer at this stage to whether the BioJect works or not is an ambiguous yes and no." |
