Abstract/Contents: | "Rhizoctonia solani (AG-2-2), a binucleate Rhizoctonia sp., Ophiosphaerella herpotricha, Gaeumannomyces incrustans, and several unidentified actotrophic fungi were isolated from roots and crowns of zoysiagrass afflicted with a disease that reults in large, circular patches of dead turf in spring and fall. In greenhouse experiments, zoysiagrass inoculated with G. incrustans, O. herpotricha, and one unidentified ectotrophic fungal isolate, exhibited root and stolon discoloration, root dry weight reduction, but not plant death after three months. Conversely, R. solani (AG-2-2) caused extensive sheath and crown rot within two weeks, but not root discoloration, in similar experiments. In replicated field plots, only zoysiagrass inoculated with R. solani (AG-2-2) developed patch symptoms. Although ectotrophic fungi may contribute to root dysfunction and turfgrass decline, our results indicate R. solani (AG-2-2) is the most common cuase of a cool-weather, large patch disease of zoysiagrass in Kansas." |
