Abstract/Contents:"Nine cultivars of tall fescue (Festuca arudinacea Schreb.) differed in severity of brown patch disease, caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, sustained in a growth chamber. Disease severity among the cultivars in the field had a medium correlation with relative levels of susceptiblity found in the growth chamber (r = 0.60, P=0.10). There was a higher correlation between blade density and disease severity in the field (r = 0.78, P=0.01). 'Kentucky-31' and 'Monarch' had the lowest levels of susceptibility in the growth chamber, but differed significantly in amounts of disease sustained in the field, with seasonal averages of 3.4 and 5.6, respectively on a ten point scale. 'Kentucky-31' and 'Monarch' had the lowest and highest blade densities, respectively, among the nine cultivars. These results suggest that plant density, in addition to susceptibility, can influence the development of brown patch disease under field conditions. Microenvironmental conditions in tall fescue canopies are being monitored to determine differences among cultivars."
