| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Evaluate the role of ants as beneficial predators in golf turf (i.e., determine the predominant species inhabiting golf courses and develop tactics for managing mound-building pest ants on putting greens with reduced environmental risk or impact on beneficial species). 2. Investigate synergism between endophyte-enhanced, resistant turfgrasses and bio-rational insecticides for improved management of white grubs and black cutworms. 3. Examine the main and interacting effects of cultural practices (i.e., mowing height, irrigation, and N fertilization) on nutritional and defensive characteristics of creeping bentgrass and relative susceptiblity to white grubs and black cutworms." Reports that "ants in fairways and rough cause little damage and provide a tremendous benefit preying on insect pest eggs and larvae," and that "insecticide screening for potential hazard to natural predators revealed the importance of post-application irrigation." Also notes that "enophytic ryegrass did not suppress growth of Japanese beetle grubs," and that "organic fertilizers may increase incidence of black turfgrass ataenius." This three-year study began in 1998. |

| USGA Summary Points: | Insecticides identified for controlling ants (Lasius spp.) in high profile areas such as tees and greens. Ants in fairways and rough cause little damage and provide a tremendous benefit preying on insect pest eggs and larvae. Insecticide screening for potential hazard to natural predators revealed the importance of post-application irrigation. Endophytic ryegrass did not suppress growth of Japanese beetle grubs. Organic fertilizers may increase incidence of black turfgrass ataenius. |
