The use of pesticides on home lawns and athletic fields is often a contentious issue due to concerns regarding human exposure and subsequent negative health impacts. Three studies are presented to; 1) evaluate different management regimes for home lawns and athletic fields, 2) assess overseeding strategies for non-irrigated, pesticide-free sports fields and 3) quantify the persistence of dislodgeable, foliar residue of four commonly used herbicidal active ingredients. Results of the home lawn and athletic field management studies indicate that treatments utilizing synthetic pesticides had significantly fewer weeds compared to organic and pesticide-free treatments. However, when averaged across years and season, percent weed cover did not exceed 33% for organic or pesticide-free treatments. Differences in weed cover did not result in significant desirable species cover retention or excessive surface hardness values. Species selection was the most important overseeding factor when overseeding non-irrigated, pesticide-free athletic fields. Perennial ryegrass had significantly higher color, quality, percent turfgrass cover and the lowest percent weed cover compared to tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass. Finally, the dislodgeable, foliar residues decreased with increasing days after treatment. Granular formulations had significantly less residue in fewer days after treatment compared to sprayable formulations. The highest residues detected were from 2,4D, but equated to 0.6% of EPA's No Observed Adverse Effects Level' (NOAEL) risk assessment. All dislodgeable residues detected from pesticide applications sharply declined with precipitation in both years and were well below the EPA's NOAEL risk assessment for physical activity on treated turfgrass for children 1 to 2-years-old.

Cultivated turfgrass is an assemblage of mown, perennial grasses or prostrate-growing forb plants and a suite of microbes all competing with each other in a common environment. This book approaches turfgrass diseases from an ecological perspective and explains with examples how wild plants and microbes have co-evolved. It addresses the identification, biology and integrated management of both common turfgrass diseases and newly emergent diseases. It includes the common and lesser-known turfgrass species, their surrounding environment and the range of beneficial and pathogenic microbes which in combination explain why disease occurs. For disease identification purposes, fungal diseases are arranged according to their predominantly cool season and warm season occurrence. Turfgrass bacterial and viral diseases, and plant parasitic nematodes are also covered. Written by a team of international authors, it combines technical expertise and practical experience. Essential for anyone involved in managing turfgrass, this book provides the know-how to identify the early warning signs of diseases, in order to manipulate the environment and minimise the damage.

Water is an increasingly valuable and limited resource, often perceived as being wasted on turfgrass. This much-anticipated second edition brings clear, current, science-based information on turfgrass management and water conservation to turf managers and researchers alike. Inside you’ll find a look at the current understanding of water use as well as new technologies being researched to reduce water use by turfgrass. Attention is paid to water quality and turfgrass as a key part of the urban environment, how integrating turfgrass with other landscape uses of water can be part of a conservation plan, and how various water qualities, including reclaimed water, can be part of a management plan. Chapters also cover •advances in drought, heat, and salinity stress tolerance •the role of water in modified root zone media and native soils •water management technologies •considerations for construction and management of urban green spaces including parks and golf courses •water depletion, pesticide and nutrient runoff A chapter summarizing the practical application of the science in each chapter rounds out the text, presenting the information in an immediately useable format. Includes 10 tables and figures, 20 color photos, a U.S. customary to metric conversion table, and an 8-page glossary.

Sustainability is a key framework for analyzing biological systems—and turfgrass is no exception. It is part of a complex that encompasses turfgrass interactions with different environments and the suitability of different turfgrasses for specific environments. In addition to its biological role, turfgrass—in the form of lawns, green spaces, and playing surfaces—brings beneficial sociological effects to an increasingly urbanized society. This book presents a comprehensive overview of current knowledge and issues in the field of turfgrass research and management, including the genetics and breeding, the diseases and pests, and the ecology of turfgrasses, and will appeal to a broad spectrum of readers.
