Abstract/Contents: | "Herbicides are valuable tools for the maintenance of quality turfgrass stands. Most grasses leave good tolerance to labelled postemergence herbicides, with direct injury usually confined to transient phytotoxicity. Sometime, postemergence herbicides have been associated with increased disease severity from pathogens attacking foliage. For example, we examined the use of triazine herbicides and Rhizoctonia blight (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn) in warm-season turfgrasses. The use of triazine herbicides, particularly atrazine, resulted in increased severity and damage to centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro) Hack) and St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze) by Rhizoctonia blight. Cool- and warm-season turfgrasses vary in their tolerance to preemergence herbicides. Some may inhibit new root development, thus affecting turf growth and and recoverey from injury. These effects are not easily reconized by turfgrass managers. The situation becomes even more complicated when diseases are involved. For instance, our research has shown that response of bermudagrass (Cynodon spp. L.) turf from nemotode injury varies with preemergence herbicides. When preemergence herbicides were applied in early March in South Carolina, and fenamiphos nematicide applied in mid-April, turf quality response varied in summer months depending on the herbicide. Results showed that use of oxadiazon usually resulted in sustained increased turf quality compared with other herbicides. It is important that research identifies and quantifies positive and negative aspects of the use of combinations and sequential applications of pest management products to develop truly integrated pest management." |
