Abstract/Contents: | "In a series of field trials and laboratory investigations over a three year period seedling diseases, caused mainly by Fusarium culmorum and Cladochytrium caespitis together as a disease complex, were recorded on total of 21 host turfgrasses. Cladochytrium caespitis was identified as a little-recognised zoosporic fungus pathogenic only in turfgrass and responsible for considerable stand reductions. Variations in susceptibility of cultivars of Poa pratensis to attack by these pathogens were also recorded. In initial experiments, benomyl seed treatment reduced disease by F. culmorum but increased disease by Cladochytrium spp. However, in a series of three field trials in 1989/90 combinations of thiabendazole with metalaxyl (APRON T) gave effective control of both F. culmorum and C. caespitis, and significantly increased seedling establishment." |
