Abstract/Contents:"Six compounds were evaluated for algicidal activity based upon direct microscopic counts of algae and cyanobacteria. Two applications of chorothalonil, an alkyl compound, copper sulfate, hydrated lime, mancozeb, or sodium hypochlorite were applied to a 'Tifgreen' bermudagrass green during the summers of 1992 and 1993. Of the seven species enumerated, Chlamydomonas sp., Hantzschia amphioxys, and Oscillatoria sp. 1 had the highest numbers prior to chemical treatment. Little reduction in numbers of Oscillatoria sp. 1 was observed, indicating that prokaryotiic algae may be difficult to control. Chlamydomonas sp. (division Chlorophyta) and Hantzchia amphioxys (division Chrysophyta), having contrasting morphological and physiological characteristics, reacted differently to the treatments."
