1 TURFGRSS FUNGC RESERCH REPORT - J. M. Vargas, Jr., and R. Detweiler Department of Botany and Plant Pathology Michigan State University Snow Mold Fungicide - Fertility Trials - - Boyne Highlands Resorts, Harbor Springs, Michigan Establishment: The Typhula snow mold fungicide - fertility trials were conducted at the Boyne Highlands Resort, Harbor Springs, M on 'Penncross' creeping bentgrass mowed at / inch. Treatments were applied to ' x plots in three repetitions of a random block design on November,. The wettable powders and flowables were applied with a small-plot CO sprayer at a volume of gal/acre. The granular fungicide and fertilizer applications were made with a ft Scotts droptype spreader. The plot ratings were taken on pril,. Results: The predominant snow mold present was Typhula blight caused by Typhula incarnata. small amount of Fusarium patch was present and is so indicated in the tables. The most effective treatments were Calo-Gran lbs., Calo Clor oz. Daconil oz + RP oz., Daconil oz. + RP oz., Daconil oz., Daconil oz. + RP oz., and Scotts F + F x rate. While the table would indicate that most of the control coming from the Daconil + RP combination was due to the Daconil, the combination did in some cases improve the efficacy of Daconil. This years results were comparable to the - season when Calo-Clor, Calo Gran and Daconil fungicides were the best products. The PCNB products, Scotts F + F, and Terraclor gave significant control compared to the untreated check but not as good as other seasons. The chloroneb product, Tersan SP, also gave significant control compared to the untreated check, but certainly not acceptable control from a practical point of view. The reason for the increase in the amount of snow mold present in - and this season in PCNB and chloroneb treatments is not known.

3 Plum Hollow Snow Mold Fungicide Report - -, Plum Hollow Golf Course, Livonia, M. Establishment: This snow mold study was established at Plum Hollow Golf Course on a Poa annua fairway maintained at about /" height of cut. Treatments were applied to ' x plots in three repetitions of a random block design on November,. The wettable powders and flowables were applied with a small-plot COo sprayer at a volume of gal/acre. The granular fungicide applications were made with a * Scotts drop-type spreader. The readings were taken on March,. Results: The results in this study are somewhat inconclusive due to a lack of severe disease pressure. The predominant disease was pink snow mold (Fusarium nivale), although a good deal of gray snow mold (Typhula incarnata) was present in certain plots.

There are several new fungicides with excellent potential for the control of Helminthosporium melting-out. These new materials, along with established materials like Daconil and cti-dione TGF, should provide a good selection of Helminthosporium melting-out fungicides for the future. Common Dollar Spot - Fungicide Study - The common (benzimidazole sensitive) dollar spot (Sclerotinia homeocarpa) study was conducted on a Poa annua fairway on the Burroughs Farms Golf Course, Brighton, Michigan. The ' x ' plots were laid out in three replications in a randomized block design. ll liquid fungicide applications were made with a CO small-plot sprayer at a volume of gal/acre. ll granular formulations were applied with a Scotts drop-type spreader. The dollar spot infestation was severe over the entire plot area prior to the first fungicide application on ugust. second treatment was made on September, with the ratings being taken on September.

Many benzimidazole - resistant strains of Sclerotinia homeocarpa are very vigorous and repeated applications are necessary to achieve control with the fungicides that are available at this time. nthracnose - Fungicide Study # - The anthracnose (Coiletotrichum graminicola) fungicide study # was conducted on the Bay Pointe Golf Club in West Bloomfield, Mi., on an irrigated annual bluegrass fairway maintained at a /" height of cut. The plot was laid out in replications in a randomized block design. The liquid applications were made with a CO small-plot sprayer at a volume of gal/acre while the granular formulations were applied with a Scotts drop-type spreader. ll treatments were applied to the plots on ugust and ugust, except as noted on the data charts.

16 Results: nthracnose Fungicide Studies The original anthracnose study was conducted at the Dearborn Country Club, Dearborn, Mi. When no disease developed on this site, two new studies were initiated, one at the Bay Pointe Golf Club, West Bloomfield, Mi. and one at Burrough's Farms in Brighton, Mi. Both new plot sites were already suffering severe anthracnose infections. There was initially no recovery in either treated or non-treated plots on both sites. When recovery did occur, it occurred simultaneously in both treated and non-treated plots. Hence, there was no significant difference in disease control between the treated plots and the untreated control. Fusarium Blight Study - The Fusarium blight (Fusarium roseum) study was conducted on a commercial lawn area at the Vlasic Pickle Corporation building in Farmington, Michigan on irrigated Merion Kentucky bluegrass turf that had previously been suffering from a Fusarium infestation. The plots were x and were replicated four times in a randomized block design. The turf was maintained at a two-inch height of cut. This study consisted of fungicides, wetting agents and nematicides. ll treatments were applied on July. pplication of both fungicides and wetting agents was accomplished with an Ortho hose jar applicator, while the nematicides were applied with a Scotts drop-type spreader. The entire area was irrigated prior to the applications and all applications were drenched into the root zone. The ratings were taken on July.

18 Results: Fusarium Blight Fungicide Study severe outbreak of Fusarium blight did not occur during and by early September the entire area had recovered from previous seasons scars. This often happens to areas that have been severely affected with Fusarium blight, due to the extra care they receive (watering + fertility) from the attention drawn to the area by the research being conducted there. t also points out the importance of good cultural practices like watering and nitrogen fertility in the control of Fusarium blight. LLSE - nthracnose Study - The LLSE - nthracnose (Colletotrichum graminicola) study was applied on an annual bluegrass fairway on the Burroughs Farms Golf Course, Brighton, Mi. The fairway received normal maintenance except for fungicide and fertilizer treatments, which were applied only in conjunction with the experiment. Treatments were applied monthly, except as noted on the data charts. The granular treatments were applied with a Scotts drop-type spreader while the LLSE and Tersan were applied with a CO small-plot sprayer at a volume of gal/acre. Treatments were applied to the plot on June, July, and ugust, except as noted on the data charts. The ratings were made on September.

Fertility treatments were applied on June, July, ugust and September. Tersan at oz/ ft was applied on July to one-half the study.
