Abstract/Contents:"Annual bluegrass (Poa annua) continues to be a problematic weed on golf course putting greens because of its poor disease and heat tolerance. Methiozolin is a new herbicide that selectively controls annual bluegrass in creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) golf course putting greens. The objective of our research was to determine the effect of methiozolin application rate and timing on annual bluegrass coverage, bentgrass injury, and overall turf quality in a mixed creeping bentgrass/annual bluegrass putting green. Applications of methiozolin using the high 0.9 lb ai/A applied in March + April or March + April + May, or paclobutrazol applied in April + May at 0.25 lb ai/A were more effective at reducing annual bluegrass coverage. Bentgrass injury and turf quality were typically never below acceptable levels for either rate or timing of methiozolin. Although this herbicide is not currently registered for use in the United States, it is currently being evaluated by many researchers and golf course superintendents around the country through a US EPA experimental use permit."
