Abstract/Contents: | "The study was conducted on a non-irrigated fairway at Pleasant Hill Golf Course in Perrysville, OH. Insecticides were applied 19 Aug to plots 10 X 10 ft arranged in a RCB design with four replications. Liquid treatments were applied with a CO₂ sprayer and Teejet^D]T^D]M XR8008VS nozzles at 35 psi pressure that delivered a volume of 2 gal/1000 ft². The granular treatments were applied with a shaker jar. Immediately after all applications were made, the area was irrigated using sweep sprinklers with approximately 1/4 inch of water. There was no further supplemental irrigation. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: JB larvae-approximately 20/ft², 55% first & 45% second instars; turf: level, dry, 1 1/4 inch ht, 60% Kentucky bluegrass and 40% fine fescue, no thatch; soil-moist, 66°F at 1 inch and 3 inch; weather-sunny, 65°F, 5-8 mph wind. Efficacy data taken 1 Aug (41 DAT) were based on the number of live larvae in six samples 7 X 7 inch from each plot. Analysis of variance was done on plot totals and means separated by LSD test at P = 0.05. All treatments significantly reduced the JB larval population. The sprayable formulation of B. thuringiensis (MYX-910 111F) gave excellent control which was equal to that of the chemical standard Dylox 6.2G although not significantly different from MYX - 942 100G or 106G. The JB populations remaining in the plots treated with the B. thuringiensis granules (all MYX-942 formulations) were at levels above the damage threshold, although no damage was noted. There were no signs of phytotoxicity or differences in turf quality in any of the plots." |
