| Abstract/Contents: | "Light-weight rolling is a common management practice employed to smooth the playing surface and increase ball roll distance (BRD) on golf course putting greens. Anthracnose is a serious disease of annual bluegrass [ABG; Poa annua L. f. reptans (Hausskn) T. Koyama] putting green turf caused by Colletotrichum cereale Manns. Light-weight vibratory rolling has been shown to reduce anthracnose severity on ABG, but the impact of other roller types or location of equipment traffic on this disease is unknown. A 3-yr field trial was established in New Brunswick, NJ in 2006 to evaluate the influence of roller type (i.e., sidewinder, vibratory and non-rolled) and location (center or perimeter) of equipment traffic on anthracnose severity and BRD of ABG turf maintained at 3.2 mm. The study was established as a strip-plot design with 8 replications. Both roller types reduced disease severity 2 to 13% compared to non-rolled turf under moderate disease pressure in 2007 and 2008. The heavier sidewinder roller had less disease than the vibratory roller on 4 of 13 rating dates and perimeter plots, which received increased equipment traffic, had less disease compared to center plots on 6 of 13 rating dates during this period. Results indicate that rolling can be used to increase BRD and improve turf quality without intensifying, and in some cases reducing, anthracnose severity on ABG putting green turf under moderate disease pressure." |
