PPFS-AG-F-7: Rating Scale for Brown Stripe of Orchardgrass

Leah Saylor, Ray Smith, Paul Vincelli | Jul. 1, 2013 (New)

As of right now, there is little published on how to assess foliar disease severity in forage grasses in order to determine the percentage which may be diseased. This publication provides a tool for visually determining the percentage of diseased foliar tissue in orchardgrass. It is based on the observation of individual leaves; however, it is hoped that eventually a rating system will be devised that provides disease percentages for entire plots.
