Abstract/Contents: | "Spring dead spot of couch grass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) turf caused by the fungus Leptosphaeria narmari J. Walker & A. M. Smith, is controlled by regular applications of either thiram or nabam. To be successful, thiram (80% w/w) at 4.3 oz. or nabam (30% w/v) at 17 fl. oz./1,000 sq. ft. should be applied to turf every 4 weeks from the beginning of the last month of summer until early spring. The fungicides are applied in 30 gal. water/1,000 sq. ft. and then washed in with the same quantity of water. A study of the relationship between the temperatures that occur during the season and those that favour the growth of the pathogen and host, enabled these control measures to be developed." |
