| Abstract/Contents: | "A fungicide trial was conducted on an 8-year-old sward of tall fescue cv. 'Kentucky 31' grown on a clay loam soil (pH 5.8) at the University of Georgia-Griffin campus. Fertilizer treatments consisted of 1.0 lb nitrogen (Lesco 24-4-10) per 1,000 sq ft applied on 8 Jun and 6 Jul. The turfgrass was maintained at a height of 3-in. by mowing once a week. Turfgrass cultural practices were similar to those prescribed for maintenance of tall fescue lawns in Georgia. Treatments were arranged as plots (5 ft x 5 ft) in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Initial applications were applied on 16 Jun. Granular formulations were weighed and mixed with sterilized sand prior to application. The fungicide /sand mixture was distributed equally in each replicated plot using a canister with perforated lid. The application interval was every 21 days. Rhizoctonia solani inoculum was obtained by growing the fungus in a wheat-barley-oats mixture, previously soaked in water overnight and then double sterilized in an Erlenmeyer flask. Turf was inoculated 24 hours after the initial fungicide applications by hand-dispersal of grain infested with R. solani into the foliar canopy. The plots received approximately 0.1-in. of irrigation water 3 times daily (11:00 AM; 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM) for 3 weeks to ensure nightly foliar wetness for infection. Normal irrigation was received at 3:00 AM after the first 17 days. Visual estimates of disease severity were made using the Horsfall-Barratt rating scale, and then translated to percent disease severity. Data were subjected to analysis of variance, and means were statistically separated using Fisher's protected LSD at α=0.05. Rhizoctonia solani infection progressed rapidly, reaching greater than 32% disease severity by 27 Aug. All treatments suppressed disease for the duration of the study. No phytotoxicity was observed in any of the treatments." |
