1 Fungicide Alternatives for the Management of Microdochium Patch Clint Mattox, Alec Kowalewski, and Brian McDonald Oregon State University May 2017 Introduction: Previous trials indicated promising results for the control of Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens using the combination of the mineral oil Civitas One with sulfur and/or phosphorous acid, as well as a sulfur and phosphorous acid combination. Other previous trial results have indicated that iron sulfate heptahydrate has shown the potential for control of Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens. However, some questions remain, namely concerning abiotic damage that was observed when rolling was used in combination with Civitas One. This is a major concern for turfgrass managers as rolling and other forms of mechanical stress are typical cultural practices used to maintain high quality putting surfaces. Another concern is turfgrass thinning associated with frequent high rates of iron sulfate heptahydrate. Regarding these concerns, in the fall of 2015 a series of new trials were initiated to explore methods for alleviating abiotic damage caused by these fungicide alternative methods for Microdochium patch management. The first goal of these trials was to identify minimum effective rates using alternative product combinations and rotations of Civitas One, phosphorous acid and sulfur (Experiments 1 and 2). The second goal was to determine if increased water carrier volumes or application timing intervals of iron sulfate heptahydrate would continue to suppress Microdochium patch while alleviating turfgrass thinning compared to the original twoweek interval or 2 gal/m carrier volume (Experiments 3 and 4). Other new trials include exploring alternative crop oils; Civitas One, Superior Oil and TriTek Oil (Experiment 5), and phosphorous acid products; PK Plus or Duraphite 12 used in combination with sulfur (Experiment 6). Experiments 1, 2, 4, and 5 received replicated golfer traffic (73 rounds of golf a day) in order to mimic real-world conditions and to assess any abiotic damage that may result. Research on all 6 experiments was conducted on Poa annua putting greens at the Lewis- Brown Turf Farm, Corvallis, OR. These putting greens were vegetatively established using aerification cores spread over a layer of USGA sand in 2009 (1, 2, 4, and 5) or 2013 (3 and 6). Page 1 of 10
2 Experiment 1: Objective: Determine the most reliable and cost effective rate of the combination of the mineral oil Civitas One, Sulfur DF and the phosphorous acid product PK Plus to control Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens, while assessing abiotic damage under replicated golfer traffic. Treatments were applied every two weeks from Sept to April 2016 and again from Sept to April Experiment 1 Results: This trial reproduced the abiotic damage under replicated traffic that was observed in previous trials. The most striking damage was observed whenever Civitas One was applied with sulfur regardless of rates. In addition to the Civitas One & sulfur combinations, Civitas One applied at 8.5 oz. / M every two weeks in combination with PK Plus had at least one replicate with unacceptable turf quality when the abiotic damage was at its peak in both years ( & respectively). All treatment combinations reduced the incidence of Microdochium patch compared to the control (Image 1 and Table 1).

4 Experiment 2: Objective: Determine if applications of the combinations of Civitas One and Sulfur DF or Civitas One and PK Plus in rotation with Sulfur DF and PK Plus would lead to acceptable control of Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens while lessening any effects of abiotic damage previously observed in bi-weekly combinations of the mineral oil Civitas One. The following treatments were applied from Sept to Apr and again from Sept to Apr a oz/m Civitas One lbs. S/M every four weeks (M = 1 000ft2) 1b lbs.

Control (Not treated) Experiment 2 Results: Similar to experiment 1, whenever Civitas One was applied in combination with sulfur, abiotic damage occurred under replicated traffic in the winter months (Image 2 and Table 2). The treatment 2 rotation (2a & 2b) showed promising results with no winter damage and good Microdochium patch suppression in the both years of this experiment in Corvallis, OR.

6 Experiment 3 Objective: Compare different water carrier volumes for iron sulfate heptahydrate applications in order to assess if a higher dilution will lead to less turfgrass thinning while at the same time continue to manage Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens. The following treatments were applied every other week from September 2015 to April 2016 and again from September 2016 to April #/M FeSO 4 Heptahydrate applied using a 2.5 gal/m spray volume every two weeks (M = 1 000ft 2 ) #/M FeSO 4 Heptahydrate applied using a 5.0 gal/m spray volume every two weeks #/M FeSO 4 Heptahydrate applied using a 7.5 gal/m spray volume every two weeks #/M FeSO 4 Heptahydrate applied using a 10.0 gal/m spray volume every two weeks 5. Control (Not treated) Experiment 3 Results: There is suggestion that the water carrier volume does not play a large role in the ability of the application of 2 # FeSO 4 / M every two weeks to suppress Microdochium patch. Under replicated golfer traffic, there is suggestion that there is a minor advantage of using a larger water carrier to decrease the blackening of the turfgrass leaves and to have a slight reduction in turfgrass thinning due to the frequent applications of iron sulfate (Image 3). Image 3: Effects of 2.5 (left) and 10.0 gallon/m carrier volume (middle) when applying iron sulfate heptahydrate compared to the control (right) in March Page 6 of 10
7 Experiment 4 Objective: Compare application timings of iron sulfate heptahydrate to quantify the minimum application intervals necessary to suppress Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens. The following treatments were applied according to the schedule below from October 2015 to April 2016 and again from October 2016 to April #/M FeSO4 Heptahydrate applied using a 5.0 gal/m spray volume every 2 weeks (M = 1 000ft2) #/M FeSO4 Heptahydrate applied using a 5.0 gal/m spray volume every 4 weeks #/M FeSO4 Heptahydrate applied using a 5.0 gal/m spray volume every 6 weeks #/M FeSO4 Heptahydrate applied using a 5.0 gal/m spray volume every 8 weeks 5. Control (Not treated) Experiment 4 Results: There is suggestion that the application frequency of every two weeks (treatment 1) is the only treatment that provided acceptable disease suppression, although turfgrass thinning was also observed leading to unacceptable turfgrass quality (Image 4). Image 4: Effects of iron sulfate heptahydrate applied every two (left), four (middle) and eight weeks (right) in March Page 7 of 10
8 Experiment 5 Objective: Compare three different mineral oils in combination with phosphorous acid in their ability to control Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens under replicated golfer traffic in order to determine if there are differences in abiotic damage observed and to perhaps find more cost-effective product choices. The following treatments were applied every other week from September 2015 to April 2016 and again from Sept to April oz/m Civitas One oz/m PK Plus every two wks (M = 1 000ft 2 ) oz/m Superior Oil oz/m PK Plus oz/m of the pigment PAR every two wks oz/m Superior Oil oz/m PK Plus every two wks oz/m TriTek Oil oz/m PK Plus oz/m of the pigment PAR every two wks 5. Control (Not treated) Experiment 5 Results: There is suggestion that all mineral oils tested have the potential to suppress Microdochium patch when used in combination with PK Plus. Abiotic damage due to repeated applications every two weeks under replicated traffic throughout the winter is still a concern with all products tested. Page 8 of 10
9 Experiment 6 Objective: Compare two phosphorous acid products alone and in combination with Sulfur DF in order to quantify their ability to control Microdochium patch on Poa annua putting greens. The following treatments were applied every other week from October 2015 to April 2016 and again from October 2016 to April oz/m PK Plus every two weeks (M = 1 000ft 2 ) oz/m Duraphite 12 every two weeks oz/m PK Plus lbs. S/M every two weeks oz/m Duraphite lbs. S/M every two weeks lbs. S/M every two weeks 6. Control (Not treated) Experiment 6 Results: There is suggestion that all treatments suppress Microdochium patch compared to the control with better disease control observed when either phosphorous acid product is used in combination with sulfur (Table 3). The combinations of either phosphorous acid product with sulfur were in the group with the highest turf quality in both years. Page 9 of 10
