Abstract/Contents:"Poa annua remains the main weed in creeping bent putting greens and bowling greens in temperate climates. Most control programs rely on the use of endothal and paclobutrazol, with very little research having been done in Australia using a combination of pre- and post-emergence herbicides. A replicated trial was set up on a creeping bent (Agrostis stolonifera cvs. SR1020 / SR1019) practice chipping green at the Peninsula Country Golf Club, near Melbourne, Australia. The objective of the trial was to determine the most effective combination of treatments using endothal, ethofumesate, oxadiazon, bensulide, paclobutrazol and trinexapac-ethyl. The results of this trial show that multiple applications of the plant growth regulator paclobutrazol at 0.5-1.1 kg ha⁻¹ over a six month period provided excellent Poa annua suppression. Endothal applied at 0.53kg ha⁻¹ (two applications) and ethofumesate at 0.40kg ha⁻¹ (three applications) provided effective suppression, however, there was unacceptable turfgrass damage. Trinexapac-ethyl, another plant growth regulator, was not effective as a "knock-down" herbicide and requires further evaluation. Oxadiazon at 1kg ha⁻¹ and bensulide at 15kg ha⁻¹ provided good suppression, however, oxadiazon can be phytotoxic if not correctly applied and bensulide retarded new root initiation in the spring."
