  1. Biology, Epidemiology, and Management of Spring Dead Spot of Bermudagrass

    Spring dead spot (Ophiosphaerella spp.) (SDS) of bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. x transvaalensis Burtt Davy) is one of the most challenging diseases in the United States transition zone. Six projects were conducted from 2019 to 2022 to better understand the environmental, edaphic, and …

  2. Utilizing spring dead spot mapping to assess precision management strategies, topographical epidemiology, economic opportunities

    … a monocyclic, soil-borne disease caused by Ophiosphaerella spp., affects the rhizomes and stolons of bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L. Pers), and is particularly severe in regions with extended dormancy, such as the transition zone. This research evaluates three aspects of SDS management: …

  3. Quantifying Field Variability Effects on Surface Performance and Athletes

    … turfgrass stressors like spring dead spot (SDS; Ophiosphaerella spp.) and winter injury are common on bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) athletic fields, yet limited research has evaluated how variability from these stressors affects field performance or safety. Existing literature often …

  4. Investigating Spring Dead Spot Management via Aerial Mapping and Precision-Guided Inputs

    Spring dead spot (SDS) is the most destructive disease of bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) in Virginia. SDS infects bermudagrass in the fall with symptoms appearing in the spring when dormancy breaks. Patches are sporadically distributed but generally reoccur in the same location. Chemical control …
