| Abstract/Contents: | "Fourteen cultivars of creeping bentgrass were established April 7, 1999 at Services Golf Club in Pretoria, South Africa. Incidence of the foliar fungal disease dollar spot (Sclerotinia homeocarpa) was determined on Jan. 21 by counting the number of infection centers per two randomly placed 0.25 square meter grids per plot and again on March 6 in one randomly placed 0.25 square meter grid per plot. Results on Jan. 21 indicate less dollar spot in Lofts L-93 as compared to half the other cultivars. Penncross, Penn A-1, Providence and Pennlinks also had less disease than SR 1020, Dominant and Crenshaw. Crenshaw had more dollar spot than any other cultivar and Dominant had more disease than half the other cultivars. Evaluations on March 6 revealed that the level of disease incidence remained high and there was a shift in the rankings of some cultivars. Penncross and Pennlinks had significantly more infection centers than Penn A-1. Southshore had significantly fewer disease infection centers than Pennlinks and Penncross. Penn G-1 also had less disease than Pennlinks. Lofts L-93, Penn A-1, and Penn G-1 ranked in the upper half of all the cultivars for reduced disease incidence in both evaluations. |
