Research Brief
Title Phyte and Activator + SA
Study:
Curative Control of Pythium Root Rot on a Creeping Bentgrass Putting Green
Location:
Clemson University
Collaborator:
Joe Roberts, Ph.D.
Date:
Summer 2021
Conclusion:
Title Phyte® Systemic Fungicide was tested alone and in combination with Activator+SA on an active outbreak of Pythium root rot. Although pressure was extremely high in this trial, the combination of Title Phyte® Systemic Fungicide with Activator+SA significantly improved overall turf quality and secondary control of brown patch throughout July and August. No significant differences were observed in overall control of Pythium root rot, although improvements in turf quality and health supported a trend in lower disease in Title Phyte® Systemic Fungicide and Activator+SA treated plots. The addition of Activator+SA to Title Phyte® Systemic Fungicide provided significant benefits to turf quality and disease control under extreme pressure.
Figure 1: Turf quality rating (AUQPC) across treatments over the course of the study (July – August). The only treatment to show significant turf quality improvement vs the non-treated control was the Title Phyte® Systemic Fungicide + Activator+SA.
