Abstract/Contents:"A fungicide trial was conducted on an 18-yr-old sward of creeping bentgrass grown on a sand/peat root zone (pH 6.2) at the University of Georgia-Griffin campus. Fertilizer treatments consisted of 1.0 lb and 0.5 lb nitrogen (Lesco 24-4-10) per 1,000 sq ft applied on 22 Apr and 2 Sep, respectively. The turfgrass was maintained at a height of 0.2-in. by mowing three times per week. Treatments were arranged as plots (3.3 ft x 4 ft) in a randomized complete block design with four replications. An initial fungicide application was made on 5 May; subsequent applications were at 14-day intervals. Fungicides were applied using 2.0 gal of water per 1,000 sq ft with a hand-held, CO2-pressured boom sprayer at 30 psi using XR TeeJet 8002VS nozzles. On 6 May the experimental plots were inoculated with a bentgrass isolate of Sclerotinia homoeocarpa grown on a tall fescue/barley/wheat seed mixture previously soaked in water overnight and then double sterilized in an Erlenmeyer flask. The plots received approximately 0.24 in. of irrigation water daily at 15:00 and 17:00 hr to ensure foliar wetness for infection. Visual evaluation of dollar spot infection centers was conducted at 7- to 14-day intervals starting on 9 May. Values were subjected to analysis of variance and means were separated using Student-Newman-Keuls α=0.05. Dollar spot incidence progressed rapidly, reaching >=136 dollar spot centers by 6 Jun. Throughout the study, all treatments provided significant (α<0.05) disease suppression compared to the non-treated check. No phytotoxicity was observed with any of the treatments at any of the rates. Turf quality was closely correlated (inversely) to the number of infection centers."
