| Abstract/Contents: | "Objectives: The overall objective is to develop baseline data concerning bacterial composition (population and diversity) of new USGA bentgrass putting greens after construction. Specific objectives are: 1. Determine bacterial populations associated with new bentgrass putting greens via selective media and identification of bacteria by FAME. 2. Compare rhizosphere bacterial populations on two different turfgrasses, bentgrass and bermudagrass. The bermudagrass work is part of a Clemson University Turfgrass Initiative project. 3. Document rhizosphere bacterial population dynamics on bentgrass over a four year time period. 4. Construct a data base for rhizobacteria diversity of bentgrass. Progress Report: Rhizobacteria are being evaluated for promotion plant growth and for biological control of weeds, insects, diseases, and nematodes in a number of ecosystems. A critical research need in putting greens management is to understand the bacterial interactions in the rhizospere of turfgrasses. A data base on turfgrass rhizobacteria from newly constructed bentgrass putting greens was initiated in Dec-1996. Each quarter, 160 randomly selected bacterial isolates on tryptic soy broth agar (TSBA) were isolated and are being identified by FAME analyses. Broad classes of rhizobacterial populations were successfully separated on selective media. Numerical differences of rhizobacterial populations in bentgrass rhizobacterial over eight sampling periods were observed (Figure 1). In the samples of Dec-1996, isolates identified from bentgrass rhizosphere belonged to 23 genera and 34 species. Acidovorax, Burkholderia, and Pseudomonas were the major genera. However, in the samples of Jun-1998, isolates identified from bentgrass rhizospere belonged to 23 genera and 43 species. Pseudomonas and Arthrobacter were the major genera. Based on the KOH method, 83% of the bentgrass isolates were Gram-negative over eight sampling periods." |
