Abstract/Contents:"The disease susceptibility of several bentgrass cultivars (CVS) maintained under different nitrogen fertility, mowing height, and fungicide regimes was assessed to identify factors that can be used to reduce fungicide inputs while maintaining acceptable turf quality. Eight bentgrass CVS (Crenshaw, Southshore, Penncross, L-93, SR 1020, SR 7200, Penn A-4 and Penn G-2) were evaluated under field conditions. All CVS were maintained at two cutting heights: 0.356 cm (greens height) and 0.953 cm (fairway height), and two nitrogen levels: 0.012 kg/sq m and 0.031 kg/sq m. CV treatments were subdivided into six fungicide application schedules (untreated, 7, 14, 28, or 56 day intervals, or an economic threshold of 0.3% disease) using the contact fungicide chlorothalonil. Data were collected for turf quality, color, density, and dollar spot (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa) severity. Other foliar diseases, e.g. brown patch (Rhizoctonia solani) and copper spot (Gloeocercospora sorghi) were also evaluated. For most CVS, dollar spot was least severe on turf receiving the high rate of nitrogen. CVS Penn G2, SR 7200 and L-93 were less susceptible to dollar spot under most nitrogen and cutting height treatments. Brown patch was most severe on turf maintained at greens height and high nitrogen, while a high incidence of copper spot was only seen on SR 7200."
