Abstract/Contents: | "Trials were conducted on a fairy ring, approximately 40 feet in diameter, located in a bluegrass rough at the Veenker Memorial Golf Course adjacent to Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa. The species of fungus causing the fairy ring was in identified. The ring was subdivided into plots measuring 4 ft by 5 ft. The experimental design was a randomized block plan with three replications. Before fungicides were applied, all plots were thoroughly pierced with pitchforks to a depth of at least 6 inches. Fungicides were applied on June 30, as drenches with recommended amounts of water, from watering cans. The check plots received comparable amounts of water. On June 30 and again on September 22, the radius of the ring was measured as the distance between a point at the center of the ring and the outer perimeter of the ring. Three radial measurements were made within each plot. Growth of the ring within each plot was calculated as the change in the mean radius between June 30 and September 22. None of the chemical treatments were effective in reducing growth of the ring significantly in comparison to untreated plots. In fact, all treatments showed somewhat greater ring expansion than the check, although this difference was not statistically significant." |
