Rationale Take-all patch, caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis f. sp. avenae, is favored by alkaline soils. Because the calcareous sands used for putting greens in the Midwest have a high pH, bentgrass greens constructed with high sand content or to USGA specifications are especially prone to the disease. Previous research addressed take-all patch on established bentgrass greens and fairways with ...

abstract the objectives of this research was to evaluate the rhizospheric effects of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) on the status of various inorganic p fractions and total organic p in 10 calcareous soils amended with 1% (w/w) municipal sewage sludge from the refinery of shahrekord city under rhizobox conditions. thus, wheat plant was planted in completely randomized design with three replicatio...

Calcareous soils are not suitable for blueberry cultivation. Our aim was to improve the performance of plants in calcareous by using pits filled with growth media combination high levels RNH4+ (proportion N-NH4+ among total applied N). Rabbiteye (Vaccinium virgatum Ait. cv. Ochlockonee) were grown a tuff/peat mixture (TP), sandy soil (S) or (CC), full factorial three RNH4+: 33%, 66% 100%. The t...
