Abstract/Contents:"Anthracnose, caused by the fungus Colletotrichum graminicola, is a destructive disease of weakened turf. Infestations can be particular [particularly] severe on annual bluegrass and bentgrass. Cultural practices such as maintaining adequate fertility, increasing mowing height, reducing soil compactions and avoiding drought stress can reduce disease severity. In particular, light, frequent applications of nitrogen (e.g. 12.2 kg N ha-1), can reduce symptom expression on greens. When active, aerification, topdressing, verticutting, and frequent mowing may enhance anthracnose. Fungicides are most effective when used preventively. In general, fungicides within the benzimidazole, (BZ) strobilurin (QoI), nitrile, and demethylation inhibitor classes are most efficacious. Recently, polyoxin-D, fludioxonil, iprodione, and fosetyl-Al have also been reported to reduce disease severity. Isolates of C. gramincola [graminicola] with reduced sensitivity to BZ and QoI fungicides have been confirmed in the laboratory, but resistance has yet to be verified in the field. Although the use of dithiopyr has enhanced anthracnose in some studies, little is known about the impact of preemergence herbicides and plant growth regulators on this disease."
