Abstract/Contents:"Accurate pest identification is essential in implementing integrated pest management programs in the landscape industry. The implementation of the Distance Diagnostics through Digital Imaging system in the county office offers homeowners and green industry professionals an option to quickly diagnosis many plant pests. Distance diagnostics increases landscape company scouting results by providing pest identification and selection for control strategies that are pest specific in a timely manner. With an accurate diagnosis, cultural practices, resistant varieties, chemical recommendations and biological control options can be discussed with landscape operators as well as procedures to reduce the risk of future disease occurrence. Distance imaging was applied to determine a difficult to control, root and crown disease of St. Augustine grass. Distance imaging equipment was essential to distinguish take-all root caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. graminis from the more common brown patch. These two diseases were not easily differentiated by pest control operators and lawn maintenance personnel. With accurate diagnosis of take-all, disease management programs specific for this disease were implemented in homeowner and commercial sites in a timely manner with high levels of reported success."
