Abstract/Contents: | "MCW-2 (fluensulfone) is a new nematicide with a novel mode-of-action produced by Makhteshim Agan. In 2011, two field trials at the University of Florida evaluated a 1.5% a.i. granular formulation of MCW-2 as a post-plant nematicide for turf sod production and golf course uses. The sod trial was on 'Empire' zoysia (Zoysia japonicum) infested with damaging numbers of Hopolaimus galeatus. Treatments were MCW-2 1.5 G at 4 kg a.i./ha applied as a single application or split into two applications of 2 kg a.i./ha each applied 4 wk apart, and untreated control. Efficacy was evaluated by measurement of H. galeatus population density, and sod strength (measure of sod harvestability). The golf course turf trial was conducted on Tifdwarf bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon xC. transvaalensis) infested with damaging numbers of Belonolaimus longicaudatus. Treatments were MCW-2 1.5 G at 4 kg a.i./ha applied as a single application, split into two applications of 2 kg a.i./ha each applied 4 wk apart, or split into 4 applications of 1 kg a.i./ha each applied 4 wk apart, and untreated control. Efficacy was evaluated by measurement of B. longicaudatus population density, percent green cover (measure of turf health), and root length. In the sod experiment the single application of 4 kg a.i./ha reduced the population density of H. galeatus in the soil and improved sod strength compared to the untreated control. In the golf course experiment all the MCW-2 treatments reduced the population density of B. longicaudatus, and improved turf percent green cover and root length compared to the untreated control. These results indicate that MCW-2 could become a useful nematode management tool for turfgrass production and maintenance." |
