Abstract/Contents: | "Annual bluegrass (ABG) [Poa annua L. forma reptans (Hausskn.) T. Koyama] is adapted to slightly acidic soil. A 10-yr field trial was continued at the Rutgers Hort Farm 2 in North Brunswick, NJ during 2019, 2020, and 2021 with the objective of evaluating the effect of soil amendments on mat layer pH, mat layer and leaf tissue Ca, and anthracnose (caused by Colletotrichum cereale Manns sensu lato Crouch, Clarke, and Hillman) severity, and the anthracnose response to changes in mat pH, mat layer and leaf tissue Ca, and other nutrients on ABG maintained as putting green turf. Ten treatments were evaluated using a randomized complete block design with four blocks. Treatments consisted of five rates of lime, two rates of sulfur, two rates of gypsum, and one non-treated control. Multiple regression and random forest models were used to evaluate the relationship between treatments response variables and anthracnose severity measured as area under disease progress curve (AUDPC). The final multiple regression model included the factors and interactions of mat layer Ca, year, mat layer pH x year, and leaf tissue Ca x year. Over the three-year study, higher leaf tissue and mat layer Ca reduced AUDPC. Higher mat layer pH only reduced AUDPC in 2021. Findings from the Random Forest Model indicated that leaf tissue and mat layer Ca, and year were the major factors affecting anthracnose severity. The random forest model suggested that other nutritional factors such as Mn may affect anthracnose rather than mat layer pH directly affecting disease. Further research is needed to determine the effect of a broader range of mat layer and leaf tissue Ca concentrations and other nutrients on anthracnose severity of ABG." |
