Envu Solutions – Anthracnose
Anthracnose can be a severe disease of intensely managed annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass surfaces. The disease is most common on putting greens undergoing stressful growing conditions/management regimes and occurs predominately in mid-summer under hot/humid conditions or in the fall-spring months under cold wet conditions.
There are two different phases of anthracnose: basal rot and foliar blight. Anthracnose basal rot affects the stem base of the plant and can be very destructive if not controlled. Annual bluegrass putting greens are especially susceptible to anthracnose basal rot and infection can occur at any time of the year. Anthracnose foliar blight can affect annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass leaves and occurs during periods abiotic stress, typically late summer.
