| Abstract/Contents: | "Nematode communities play important roles in plant health and in predicting the state of the soil food web. On golf courses, plant pathogenic nematodes are often studied because they can cause severe damage to turf stands, especially putting greens, and many of the control products have either been recently banned due to environmental concerns or have low efficacy. Although less studied, the free-living nematodes may be an untapped resource for improving plant health by transferring nutrients, bacteria, and fungi and by consuming or competing with possible plant pathogens. We studied the nematode communities on an organic (non-synesthetic fertilizers and pesticides) and two conventional golf courses in Massachusetts in the spring and fall of 2013 and 2014. We sampled all three management areas: the roughs (lowest management inputs), the fairways, and the putting greens (highest management inputs). Season significantly affected the bacterivores and plant pathogens (highest in spring and fall, respectively). The bacterivores and predators were greatest on the organic course and the plant pathogens were highest on the conventional course. Soil texture did not have a significant effect on nematode community structure and putting greens did not have larger nematode populations than the fairways or roughs as previously speculated." |
