Abstract

Dollar spot caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Benn. is a common and economically important turfgrass disease in South Korea. Fungicides were evaluated for control of dollar spot in creeping bentgrass golf course putting green. Commercial formulations of propiconazole, thiophanate-methyl, chlorothalonil, trifloxystrobin and boscalid were applied to plots of creeping bentgrass, each of the latter four fungicides was tank mixed with propiconazole at the same rates, and applied as treatments. The dollar spot severity in the nontreated plots of field A and B progressed toward peak diseases of 18.3 and 66.7% from 10 or 15 days after inoculation, respectively. Significant differences were detected among control values of the fungicides. Dollar spot control provided by boscalid was significantly greater than the other fungicides which showed low control values in a higher disease condition. No synergistic interactions, except propiconazole + thiophanate-methyl treated plot, were detected under a lower disease pressure. However, under a higher disease pressure, synergism was observed at all fungicide combinations, except a propiconazole and boscalid tank mixture. These data suggest turfgrass managers in golf course can take advantage of fungicide synergism to control dollar spot using the products and rates in this study.

Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett에 의한 동전마름병은 우리나라에서 가장 흔하며 경제적으로 매우 중요한 잔디병이다. 크리핑벤트그래스로 조성된 골프장 그린에서 propiconazole, thiophanate-methyl, chlorothalonil, trifloxystrobin, boscalid를 이용하여 방제효과를 평가하였다. 또한 propiconazole과 다른 4개의 약제를 각각 혼용하여 단용처리구 대비 상승효과를 조사하였다. 동전마름병은 2개 포장의 무처리구에서 각각 평균 18.3, 66.7%의 발생을 보였다. 약제의 약효는 병 발생정도에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 살균제를 단독으로 처리하였을 때 방제 효과는 발병도가 높았을 때보다 낮았을 때 우수하였다. 처리된 살균제 중 boscalid의 효과가 가장 높았다. 살균제 혼용처리구에서는 propiconazole + thiophanate-methyl 처리구를 제외하고 단독처리구 대비상승효과가 발견되었으나, 2개 포장 모두 혼용처리구 사이에 통계적인 유의성은 발견되지 않았다. 따라서 현장에서 동전마름병 방제 시 병 발생 조건에 따라 방제전략을 달리해야 할 것으로 보여진다.
