Abstract/Contents: | Describes the use of compost extracts and teas on turfgrass and the relation between compost and disease suppression. Discusses mechanisms of disease suppression with composted amendments, microbial communities and disease suppression, disease supressive activity of compost microbes, and the future of compost use for turfgrass disease control. States that "although much remains to be understood about the efficient use of organic amendments in turf grass management, it is clear that the benefits of such amendments far outweigh any negative aspects of their use." |
