Abstract/Contents: | "A single application of Steinernema feltiae (=bibionis) was made to each of three turfgrass areas in 1990 using a subsurface placement method. Invertebrates were estimated by Burlese extraction of turf attached to soil cores, visual inspection of cores and soap flushes. Detection of infective nematodes, with a bioassay, was common 14 days after treatment (DAT) but rare 49DAT. The nematodes controlled bluegrass billbug larvae but had no affect on adult populations. No significant differences (p < 0.05) between treated and untreated turf were detected in populations of earthworms, Acarina, Araneida, Symphyla, Diplopoda, Collembola, Thysanoptera, or Coleoptera. Turf mealybugs were suppressed after treatment. A single application of S. feltiae did not appear to have a significant impact on the non-target invertebrates inhabiting turfgrass." |
