Abstract/Contents:"Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) has great potential for use in salt affected turf sites. Because of its tolerance to drought and high salinity irrigation, use of this grass on golf courses, athletic fields, and lawns in coastal areas may aid in conservation of fresh water resources. Plant-parasitic nematodes are damaging pests of turfgrasses in Florida, particularly sting (Belonolaimus longicaudatus) and lance (Hoplolaimus galeatus). It is unknown how these or other plant parasitic nematodes impact seashore paspalum. Therefore, experiments were performed to compare the susceptibility of `SeaIsle 1' seashore paspalum and `TifDwarf' bermudagrass to B. Longicaudatus and H. galeatus. Plugs of either grass were planted into USGA root zone mix in 15 cm diameter clay pots. Two weeks after planting, 16 pots of each grass were inoculated with 100 B. longicaudatus, 100 H. galeatus, or remained uninoculated. Nematode population and root length analysis were performed 60 and 120 days after inoculation. Both nematode species reproduced on either grass, but only B. longicaudatus caused root-length reductions. Population densities of B. longicaudatus were higher (P < 0.05) on bermudagrass after 60 days than on seashore paspalum, but not after 120 days. B. longicaudatus caused root-length reductions of 35 to 40% after 120 days on both grasses, but reductions were not significantly different (P < 0.05) between grasses. This indicates that damage thresholds used for diagnosis of B. longicaudatus on bermudagrass may be used for seashore paspalum as well."
