Abstract/Contents: | "Turfgrass diseases caused by Pythium spp. are important to the golf industry in the southeastern U.S. Reports of Pythium-incited diseases affecting hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x transvaalensis), overseeded with Poa trivialis, are on the rise in Alabama. The overall goal of this research was to examine the population dynamics and diversity of Pythium spp. over a one year period on overseeded bernudagrass [bermudagrass] putting greens. Three golf greens on each of five golf courses in central Alabama were identified for sampling. Each golf green was divided into four quadrants and sampled on a monthly basis for twelve months beginning December 2000. Environmental data, including air and soil temperature, soil moisture, relative humidity and soil pH were also collected. Seventeen soil cores (2.5 cm deep, 8 mm daim.) were removed from each quadrant, and dilution plated onto a Pythium selective agar medium. Colonies of Pythium were enumerated and populations compared to environmental data. An inverse relationship was observed between the number of colony forming units and air and soil temperature. A direct correlation also existed between soil pH and total colony forming units." |
