| Abstract/Contents: | "Until the early 1980's, Rhizoctonia solani was considered to be the only member of a genus of several dozen fungal species that caused brown patch syptoms of turf, but since then at least three other Rhizoctonia species have been identified that cause brown patch on an [as] many as 13 different turfgrass species. These additional Rhizoctonia species are Rhizoctonia zeae, R. oryzae, and R. cerealis. The environmental conditions that favor Rhizoctonia growth are high humidity and warm air temperatures. Rhizoctonia diseases are a constant problem at closely cut, highly managed turf sites, particularly when the turf is stressed. At sites with taller turf they can be an occasional problem. Current management practices and applications of a fungicide at the earliest appearance of symptoms is the most effective means of controlling this disease as alternative control strategies are just beginning to be formulated." |
