Supporting 4th ETS Conference in Germany Patrons Gold Sponsor Silver Sponsor Bronce Sponsor Preface he European Turfgrass Society (ETS) was established in 2007 aiming to provide a common Tground and forum for everybody that is involved in the turfgrass industry such as research- ers, companies, greenkeepers and others. ETS has achieved its goals through the organization of conferences and field days. So far ETS has successfully organized conferences in Pisa, Italy (2008), Angers, France (2010) and Kristiansand, Norway (2012) and field days in Valen- cia, Spain (2009); Ghent, Belgium (2011), Monte Carlo (2013) and a regional field day in San Michele all’Adige – Trento, Italy (2012). In the recent years, European turfgrass industry has experienced unforeseen difficulties due to the worldwide economic recession that resulted in peoples’ reduced quality of life narrowing their interest only to the basic human needs, namely food and clothing. Under such a narrow spectrum of thinking, sectors of ornamental and functional horticulture including turfgrass in- dustry have shrunk. Under these circumstances ETS networking has been proven to be a valuable tool to over- come the hurdles with collectively coordinated actions. These ETS efforts have been taking into account the contemporary needs of turfgrass industry aiming to the sustainable use of natural resources, the environmental protection and considering the perception of various stakeholders. All the above are distilled into the main theme of the 4th ETS Conference to be held in Osnabrueck, Germany “Balancing turfgrass performance and sustainability”. In Conference, research and professional experience will merge and exchange valuable and novel information aiming to promote turfgrass management and science under a collaborative and sustainable manner taking into account the current economical restrains. This knowledge and experience will be disseminated in the most efficient manner toward the turfgrass industry through more than 70 oral and poster presentations to the conference participants. In addition, all presenta- tions will be available worldwide through their publication in the scientific journals European Journal of Horticulture Science and European Journal of Turfgrass Science. These accomplishments are the result of hard work and great organizational skills that are per- formed by the Organizing Committee of the Conference at the University of Applied Science Osnabrueck. My sincere gratitude goes to all members of the Organizing Committee for realiz- ing this 4th ETS Conference in such a short time and in particular to the convener Prof. Martin Thieme-Hack and his collaborator Dr. Klaus Mueller-Beck, President of the German Turf Socie- ty (Deutsche Rasengesellschaft e.V. DRG). All these efforts would be impossible to accomplish without the precious input of ETS Board members. I would like to thank them all for their volunteered work and valuable input in the effort to sustain and grow ETS influence and networking throughout the European turfgrass in- dustry during these two past years. This volume contains extended abstracts, reviewed and presented in oral or poster form at the 4th European Turfgrass Society Conference. In addition a smaller part of full paper will be pub- lished in “European Journal of Horticulture Science”. All submitted contributions have undergone a thorough double blind peer review process by at least two independed reviewers of the scientific committee and an additional review from the Editorial Committee. The European Turfgrass Society acknowledges and appreciates the con- tribution of Authors, Reviewers and Editors which has been invaluable to the improvement of the quality of this publication. Panayiotis A. Nektarios The European Turfgrass Society President 4 4th ETS Conference 2014 Salute urfgrass research in Germany in recent years has not played such a significant role as in Tother countries represented by the conference participants. Even the “Rasen-Fachstelle“ at the University of Hohenheim suspended operations last year. The economic importance of functioning turfgrass research, according to Humboldt’s educational ideal, in conjunction with a turfgrass apprenticeship, whether for golf, sport or landscape is well known to the leaders of the European Turfgrass Society. We are hoping that this conference can give the field of turf- grass research and training in Germany new impetus. The University of Applied Sciences, Osnabrueck, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and Land- scape Architecture is honored to be able to host, this, the 4th ETS conference in 2014. Our gratitude goes to the board of the ETS for this decision. But thanks must also be given to the organizing committee, in particular the President of the German Turfgrass Society, Dr. Klaus

  • Minireview Snow Molds: a Group of Fungi That Prevail Under Snow
    Microbes Environ. Vol. 24, No. 1, 14–20, 2009 http://wwwsoc.nii.ac.jp/jsme2/ doi:10.1264/jsme2.ME09101 Minireview Snow Molds: A Group of Fungi that Prevail under Snow NAOYUKI MATSUMOTO1* 1Department of Planning and Administration, National Agricultural Research Center for Hokkaido Region, 1 Hitsujigaoka, Toyohira-ku, Sapporo 062–8555, Japan (Received January 5, 2009—Accepted January 30, 2009—Published online February 17, 2009) Snow molds are a group of fungi that attack dormant plants under snow. In this paper, their survival strategies are illustrated with regard to adaptation to the unique environment under snow. Snow molds consist of diverse taxonomic groups and are divided into obligate and facultative fungi. Obligate snow molds exclusively prevail during winter with or without snow, whereas facultative snow molds can thrive even in the growing season of plants. Snow molds grow at low temperatures in habitats where antagonists are practically absent, and host plants deteriorate due to inhibited photosynthesis under snow. These features characterize snow molds as opportunistic parasites. The environment under snow represents a habitat where resources available are limited. There are two contrasting strategies for resource utilization, i.e., individualisms and collectivism. Freeze tolerance is also critical for them to survive freezing temper- atures, and several mechanisms are illustrated. Finally, strategies to cope with annual fluctuations in snow cover are discussed in terms of predictability of the habitat. Key words: snow mold, snow cover, low temperature, Typhula spp., Sclerotinia borealis Introduction Typical snow molds have a distinct life cycle, i.e., an active phase under snow and a dormant phase from spring to In northern regions with prolonged snow cover, plants fall.

  • Typhula Blight Paul Koch, UW-Plant Pathology and PJ Liesch, UW Insect Diagnostic Lab
    XHT1270 Provided to you by: Typhula Blight Paul Koch, UW-Plant Pathology and PJ Liesch, UW Insect Diagnostic Lab What is Typhula blight? Typhula blight, also known as gray or speckled snow mold, is a fungal disease affecting all cool season turf grasses (e.g., Kentucky bluegrass, creeping bentgrass, tall fescue, fine fescue, perennial ryegrass) grown in areas with prolonged snow cover. These grasses are widely used in residential lawns and golf courses in Wisconsin and elsewhere in the Midwest. What does Typhula blight look like? Typhula blight initially appears as roughly circular patches of bleached or straw-colored turf that can be up to two to three feet in diameter. When the disease is severe, patches can merge to form larger, irregularly-shaped bleached areas. Affected turf is often matted and can have a water-soaked appearance. At the edges of patches, masses of grayish-white fungal threads (called a mycelium) may form. In 1 3 addition, tiny ( /64 to /16 inch diameter) reddish-brown or black fungal survival Typhula blight causes circular patches of structures (called sclerotia) may be bleached turf that often merge to form larger, irregularly-shaped bleached areas. present. Typhula blight looks very similar to Microdochium patch/pink snow mold (see University of Wisconsin Garden Facts XHT1145, Microdochium Patch), but the Microdochium patch fungus does not produce sclerotia. Where does Typhula blight come from? Typhula blight is caused by two closely related fungi Typhula incarnata and Typhula ishikariensis. In general, T. incarnata is more common in the southern half of Wisconsin while T. ishikariensis is more common in the northern half of the state.

  • Snow Molds of Turfgrasses, RPD No
    report on RPD No. 404 PLANT July 1997 DEPARTMENT OF CROP SCIENCES DISEASE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN SNOW MOLDS OF TURFGRASSES Snow molds are cold tolerant fungi that grow at freezing or near freezing temperatures. Snow molds can damage turfgrasses from late fall to spring and at snow melt or during cold, drizzly periods when snow is absent. It causes roots, stems, and leaves to rot when temperatures range from 25° to 60°F (-3° to 15°C). When the grass surface dries out and the weather warms, snow mold fungi cease to attack; however, infection can reappear in the area year after year. Snow molds are favored by excessive early fall applications of fast release nitrogenous fertilizers, Figure 1. Gray snow mold on a home lawn (courtesy R. Alden excessive shade, a thatch greater than 3/4 inch Miller). thick, or mulches of straw, leaves, synthetics, and other moisture-holding debris on the turf. Disease is most serious when air movement and soil drainage are poor and the grass stays wet for long periods, e.g., where snow is deposited in drifts or piles. All turfgrasses grown in the Midwest are sus- ceptible to one or more snow mold fungi. They include Kentucky and annual bluegrasses, fescues, bentgrasses, ryegrasses, bermudagrass, and zoysiagrasses with bentgrasses often more severely damaged than coarser turfgrasses. Figure 2.

  • Activated Resistance of Bentgrass Cultivars to Microdochium Nivale Under Predicted Climate Change Conditions
    Activated Resistance of Bentgrass Cultivars to Microdochium nivale under Predicted Climate Change Conditions by Sara Marie Stricker A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Environmental Science Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Sara Marie Stricker, September, 2017 ABSTRACT ACTIVATED RESISTANCE OF BENTGRASS CULTIVARS TO MICRODOCHIUM NIVALE UNDER PREDICTED CLIMATE CHANGE CONDITIONS Sara Marie Stricker Advisor: University of Guelph, 2017 Professor Dr. Tom Hsiang The potential impact of predicted climate change on Microdochium nivale, which causes Microdochium patch on turfgrasses was investigated. Turfgrasses exposed to temperature fluctuations exhibited increased yellowing caused by M. nivale compared to a constant lower temperature incubation. The effect of increased CO2 (from 400 ppm to 800 ppm) on M. nivale hyphal growth, percent yellowing, and biochemical response was assessed for Agrostis spp. and Poa annua cultivars. The efficacy of the resistance activator, Civitas + Harmonizer, was assessed under conditions of increased CO2, two temperatures, and field conditions. Civitas + Harmonizer often decreased disease symptoms, and suppression varied by cultivar and environmental conditions. Elevated CO2 did not affect the growth of M. nivale, although evidence from growth room trials suggests it may decrease Microdochium patch disease severity in the future. However, the interactive effects of temperature, snow cover conditions, and moisture availability in the field under future conditions is unknown. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor Dr. Tom Hsiang for welcoming me back into his lab and for his guidance, patience, and wry witticisms that kept me going. I am also very grateful for the opportunities I have had to participate in conferences and educational experiences throughout my time as a master’s student.

  • Russian Place-Names of 'Hidden' Or 'Indirect' Scottish Origin
    Russian place-names of ‘hidden’ or ‘indirect’ Scottish origin (the case of Hamilton – Khomutov) Alexander Pavlenko and Galina Pavlenko In Russia there are numerous toponyms going back to personal or place names of western European origins. This phenomenon resulted from several waves of massive immigration from the West, first to Muscovite Rus’ and later, in greater numbers, to the Russian Empire. Among the immigrants, most of whom originated from Germany, there was quite a number of Scotsmen – active participants in all the major historical events in both Western and Eastern Europe. The first Scotsmen in Russia, called Shkotskie Nemtsy (literally ‘Scottish Germans’) by locals, belonged to the military class and came to this country either as mercenaries or prisoners of war in the late sixteenth century in the reign of Ivan the Terrible. Most of them were captured during the Livonian War and continued their military service in the Russian troops (Anderson 1990: 37). In the seventeenth century with the accession of the Romanovs dynasty to the throne, Scotsmen started to arrive in Russia in ever increasing numbers. Some of those who abandoned their motherland, driven by circumstances managed to inscribe their names in Russian history as prominent soldiers, engineers, doctors, architects, etc. Scottish mercenaries and adventurers considered the remote Russian lands to be a place where they could build their career and hopefully make a fortune. Of course, as is well known, Russia was only one of a multitude of destinations which Scotsmen sought to reach. The late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries saw a more abundant influx of Scots due to the Petrine reforms and a high demand for foreign professionals in all fields (Dukes 1987: 9–23; Cross 1987: 24–46).
