Abstract/Contents:"In many coastal areas in the Southeastern United States, water restrictions are limiting the amount of fresh water available for irrigation of golf courses, athletic fields, and lawns. Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) has great potential for use in these areas. Because of its tolerance to high salinity irrigation, use of this grass on golf courses, athletic fields, and lawns in coastal areas may aid in conservation of freshwater resources. Plant-parasitic nematodes are damaging pests of turfgrasses in Florida, with Belonolaimus longicaudatus and Hoplolaimus galeatus being considered among the most damaging. It is unknown how these plant parasitic nematodes may be impacted by high-salinity irrigation used on seashore paspalum. Experiments were performed to examine the effects of increasing irrigation salinity levels on B. longicaudatus and H. galeatus using seashore paspalum as a host. These experiments were conducted in small pots in an environmentally controlled glasshouse. Irrigation treatments consisting of six rates of salinity were formulated by concentrating deionized water to five salinity levels, (5, 10, 25, 40, and 55 dS/M) and deionized water to serve as a control. Population densities of H. galeatus demonstrated a negative linear regression (P < 0.001) with increasing salinity. Population densities of B. longicaudatus were quadratically (P < 0.001) related to increasing salinity from 0 dS/M to 55 dS/M. An increase in population densities of B. longicaudatus was observed at 10 dS/M compared to 0 dS/M (P/pard * = 0.0232). Reproduction and feeding of B. longicaudatus and H. galeatus decreased at salinity levels of 25 dS/M and above."
