Abstract/Contents: | "The severity of Nigrospora blight, caused by N. sphaerica, was measured in a field trial designed to evaluate the influence of soil fertility on diseases of Kentucky bluegrass. The cultivars Nassau and Baron were planted in 1988 where three levels of soil pH, phosphorus and potassium had been maintained for 16 years. During 1990, four levels of chloride (0, 56, 112, 224 kg/ha) were applied every three weeks to each plot using mixtures of ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate. Soil pH was the most important factor in determining the severity of blight with pH values in the range of 4.5 being more conducive than 4.9 or 5.6. Lower choride, phosphorus and potassium levels were more conducive to blight, but to a much lower magnitude than soil pH. Nassau was more susceptible than Baron." |
