Abstract/Contents:"Lab and field studies with a variety of composts have been conducted over the past several years. In the field, some compost-amended sand topdressings have suppressed Pythium root rot symptoms as well as metalaxyl. In lab bioassays with selected sterile vs. nonsterile composts, biotic suppression of damping off of bentgrass seedlings was demonstrated. However, in certain materials, disease suppression was a result of a combination of biotic and abiotic components. In 1992, a study was conducted to examine effects of compost maturity on microbial populations and Pythium root rot suppression. Starting materials included yard waste, food waste and animal manures. No apparent effects of compost maturity on Pythium root rot suppression were observed during the 6-month experiment, although levels of suppression differed among different composts. No relationships between fungal, bacterial, and actinomycete populations and P. graminicola suppression were apparent."
