Estimating Benzimidazole Residues in Thatch and Turfgrass by Bioassay
Bioassays using pellets of agar, thatch-agar and turfgrass-agar were developed using benzimidazole-sensitive Penicillium expansum, to detect the fungicide methyl 2-benzimidazole carbamate (MBC) which is the major fungitoxic degradation product of benomyl [methyl 1-(butylcarbamoyl)-2-benzimidazole carbamate] in thatch and turfgrass clippings. These bioassays were used to estimate the amount of f...
متن کاملBIOLOGICAL CONTROL Influence of Commercially Available Wildflower Mixes on Beneficial Arthropod Abundance and Predation in Turfgrass
Conservation and augmentation of indigenous natural enemies are promising strategies for biologically based pest management in outdoor urban environments. This research sought to determine whether the addition of wildßower plantings would enhance the occurrence, abundance and impact of beneÞcial arthropods in the landscape, and to determine the potential compatibility of pest-resistant turfgras...
متن کاملFate of the biological control agent Pseudomonas aureofaciens TX-1 after application to turfgrass.
The fate and impact of Pseudomonas aureofaciens TX-1 following application as a biocontrol agent for fungi in turfgrass were studied. The organism was applied with a modified irrigation system by using a preparation containing 1 x 10(6) P. aureofaciens TX-1 CFU ml(-1) about 100 times between May and August. We examined the impact of this repeated introduction of P. aureofaciens TX-1 (which is k...
متن کاملPPA-1: Chemical Control of Turfgrass Diseases
T under intensive management are often subject to outbreaks of infectious diseases. Diseases usually are most damaging when weather or cultural conditions favor the disease-causing agent but not plant growth and vigor. Cultural conditions that enhance turfgrass diseases include close mowing, inadequate or excessive nitrogen fertility, light and frequent irrigations, excessive thatch, poor drain...
متن کاملEvaluating Bentgrasses for Quality, Ball-Roll Distance, Thatch/Mat Development and Annual Bluegrass Invasion
The industry trend to golf putting greens which produce greater ball-roll distances has led to development of high density creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris, Huds.) cultivars that tolerate very low mowing heights. These cultivars also have a finer leaf texture and improved competitiveness with the invasive weed, annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.). In this multi-year field study, newer cultiva...
