Based on the author's numerous years of experience and research, this second edition brings new and updated information to the expanding golf industry. Creeping bentgrass is considered the premier species on golf course putting greens, and there is a growing demand for an understanding of the maintenance practices and problems described in this book. A new section deals with turf fungicides, one of the largest markets for fungicides in the United States. It also covers recent advances in biological and cultural control of turf diseases, new herbicides, emergence patterns for annual bluegrass control and suppression, and better ways to exploit the benefits of plant growth regulators.
