Glad to share our new paper discovering a new root disease on fine fescue. The patches start off like summer patch until they become way too big. apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/1…… Let me know/send me a sample if you see similar symptoms on fine fescues.
We had a major fire Thursday at one of of research farms. One firefighter was sent to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and has recovered, but otherwise nobody was hurt. We lost the shop, carts, and all of the fine turf mowers.

A bittersweet night tonight as the lab gathered to celebrate Ming-Yi Chou’s (@TurfgrassChou) new position as the turf pathologist at @RUturfCenter. We’re so thankful for his contributions to our program and can’t wait to see what he does in NJ. Congrats and best wishes Ming-Yi!
Today was the 32nd annual Rutgers Turfgrass Symposium. We heard from Dr. Ming-Yi Chou who is our incoming turf pathologist on dollar spot suppressive soils. Ming-Yi will start at Rutgers in mid-April.
We also heard from PhD student Katie Diehl, who discussed her summer internship experience at Bandon Dunes.
Our annual Turfgrass Field Days are approaching. July 26th (golf & fine turf) and 27th (sports, lawn, and landscape). We look forward to seeing you!
