| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted by the United States Golf Association (USGA) to "1. Identify specific pesticides or other plant health promoting materials that can reduce the severity of bacterial wilt symptoms on golf course putting greens. 2. Determine the effect of plant growth regulators on the incidence, severity and occurrence of bacterial wilt on golf course putting greens. 3. Identify cultural practices that may limit the spread and severity of the disease on golf course putting greens." Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "trials were conducted on practice greens with a previous history of the disease. The practice green at Saucon Valley consisted of 100% creeping bentgrass (A1/A4) and the practice green at Laurel Creek was approximately a 50/50 mix of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass (multiple varieties)." Reports that "because disease pressure was mild, none of the treatments had a positive effect on reducing disease because none was present in the control treatments." Concludes that "in future years, this project will incorporate treatments to systematically examine the timing and rate of fertilizer and PGR [plant growth regulators] applications on the incidence and severity of bacterial wilt related etiolation." |
