Abstract/Contents:"Many species of plant-parasitic nematodes attack the roots of turfgrass. Nematode feeding often results in the production of disease symptoms. This damage is often quite subtle or is often improperly diagnosed because feeding by nematodes doesn't always result in characteristic symptoms. Proper identification of the causal agent(s) should be accomplished before implementation of any management strategies. Otherwise, treatment may not result in alleviation of disease symptoms. The impact of plant-parasitic nematodes in Michigan turfgrasses is not very well understood. Nematodes are often found in samples collected from turf exhibiting disease symptoms. This was apparent when samples were collected from selected golf courses in 1993. However, this represents indirect evidence that nematodes are a problem in golf course greens in Michigan. Greenhouse experiments were initiated in 1994 to obtain more data on the impact of nematodes in creeping bentgrass. In addition to the 1993 survey and the greenhouse study, further information will be provided on the effectiveness of post-plant nematicides for control of nematodes in creeping bentgrass greens in Michigan. Also, information documented in research literature will also be provided.
