Turfgrass Renovation Using Dazomet to Control the Poa annua L. Soil Seed Bank

Abstract: Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) is an invasive weed producing copious amounts of viable seed that compete with seedling turfgrasses during renovation. These field studies were conducted to determine the effectiveness of dazomet (tetrahydro-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione), a granular soil sterilant that breaks down in soil to release methyl isothiocyanate (MITC), for controlling the soil seed bank of annual bluegrass during turfgrass renovation. Field trials in Urb… Show more

“…Given that >80% of viable annual bluegrass seed are found within the top 0‐ to 1‐cm depth of soil (Branham et al, 2004), a large proportion of resistant annual bluegrass seed would be removed when harvesting zoysiagrass sod. However, it is rare for a single production field to be entirely harvested in a single year.…”

“…In the seedbank analysis, 235 annual bluegrass seedlings were counted indicating that proportionally, the majority of the annual bluegrass seed remained in the soil following fraise mowing. Again, these results were surprising considering published data on cool-season turfgrasses suggest that the majority of the annual bluegrass in the seedbank resides in the top 1 cm (Branham et al 2004) of soil in cool-season golf course fairways or the top 1.3 cm (Green et al 2019) of the soil in cool-season golf course putting greens. It is likely that seedbank dynamics and seed distribution in the soil profile is different between climates with increased annual bluegrass.…”

“…It is likely that seedbank dynamics and seed distribution in the soil profile is different between climates with increased annual bluegrass. Past research on annual bluegrass seedbank dynamics (Branham et al 2004;Green et al 2019;Watschke et al 1979) was conducted in cool-season turf swards in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Pennsylvania with a high percentage of annual bluegrass. Additionally, some of the sites previously studied were golf course turfs that were 90þ yr old.…”

“…Application of dazomet in 1999 likely reduced the amount of P. annua seen in 2000 (4). Large seed banks and long-term seed viability of P. annua allow it to be a successful primary colonizer when existing turf swards are killed by snow mold or other agents.…”
