Abstract/Contents: | "The dollar spot susceptibility of 17 creeping bentgrass cultivars grown under putting green conditions was evaluated near Torino, Italy. The experimental area was constrcuted of a well drained, high-sand root zone. The turfs were in the second full growing season at the time of the assessments. No fungicides were applied for dollar spot control during the growing season. Great variability in susceptibility of dollar spot was observed among the seventeen Agrostis cultivars. Astoria and Seaside proved the most resistant, followed by Pennlinks and Penncross. The cultivars Emerald and SR 1020 proved especially susceptible to dollar spot, with from 20 to 30% of the turf area lost to the disease. Two advanced experimental selections from Pennsylvania State University exhibited minimal susceptibility to dollar spot, with DF1 being particularly noteworthy among the Agrostis stolonifera cultivars." |
