Abstract/Contents: | "Damage by the bermudagrass mite, Eriophyes cynodoniensis, has increased the last few years. It can cause a significant loss of stands of bermudagrass, Cynodon spp., especially when other biotic or abiotic stresses are present. Commercial cultivars and 47 other bermudagrass genotypes were screened for their susceptibility to the bermudagrass mite under greenhouse culture. Results include: The cultivars, 'Cardinal', 'Greg Norman 1', 'Midlawn', 'TifSport', and 'Tifway' expressed no symptoms (terminal rosetting) during the 9-week test period and may be resistant to the mite. However, in previous studies, 'Tifway' has showed 44% susceptibility and therefore these cultivars may not all be resistant. Three hybrids also exhibited zero terminals with symptoms. Most of the commercial cultivars including many of the newer ultradwarf bermudagrass cultivars are highly susceptible to this mite and had 14 to 59 infested/rosetted terminals per plant." |
