Abstract/Contents:"Increased N fertilization, mowing height, and sand topdressing are management practices that can suppress anthracnose disease of annual bluegrass [Poa annua L. f. reptans (Hausskn) T. Koyama; ABG] caused by Colletotrichum cereale Manns. A 3-yr field study evaluated the relative importance and interactions of these factors on anthracnose severity, turfgrass quality, and ball roll distance (BRD) on ABG turf in North Brunswick, NJ. A factorial combination of mowing height (2.3 and 3.2 mm), N fertilization (100 and 200 kg ha-1 yr-1), and sand topdressing (46 and 98 Mg ha-1 yr-1 in 2012; 37 and 81 Mg ha-1 yr-1 during 2013 and 2014) was arranged in a split-split-plot design with four replications. The practice of applying greater N fertilization (200 kg ha-1) provided the greatest reduction in disease severity and improvement in quality than the practices of higher mowing (3.2 mm) or greater sand topdressing (98 or 81 Mg ha-1). Combining greater N with higher mowing and greater sand topdressing provided acceptable disease suppression without the use of fungicides during moderate but not severe anthracnose epidemics. Higher mowing often produced unacceptable BRD (<2.9 m) especially when combined with greater N fertilization; whereas, under lower mowing, BRD was acceptable on most observation dates (91-96%) and less influenced by greater N fertilization. Thus, when adjustments in best practices for anthracnose management are needed to enhance BRD; lowering the mowing height will provide that enhancement while not greatly increasing the risk for anthracnose especially when greater N and increased topdressing practices are also employed."
