| Abstract/Contents: | "Control of algal crusts on golf course greens is an important problem in temperate climates throughout the world. Algae crusts or mats can be 0.3 cm thick and range from a few meters in diameter to larger areas that encompass an entire green. Investigations were undertaken to determine the effectiveness of chemical treatments to eliminate algal crusts from golf greens. Seven chemical products were screened in the laboratory for their ability to kill algal mixtures of Phormidium, Hormidium, and Cosmarium sp. growing in a weak nutrient solution. The most effective treatments were Consan 20, sodium hypochlorite, formalin and Lysol. Greenhouse tests were conducted with replicate algae-infested soil cores treated with drenches of selected chemical treatments. Results demonstrated that some disinfectants alone were effective in controlling algae growth with Consan 20 showing the greatest effectiveness of products labeled for use on turf. The addition of the surfactant Latron CS-7 was necessary to improve effectiveness of Dithane M-45, Agribrom and sodium hypochlorite. The most effective compound tested, Consan 20, proved effective without the addition of the surfactant that caused phytotoxicity in field tests." |
