Question 1 of 54👑 VIP
A grounds manager at a university campus notices that a large section of Kentucky bluegrass turf has developed irregularly shaped patches of yellowing grass in midsummer. The affected areas do not follow irrigation head patterns, and the grass blades show a water-soaked appearance at the margins before wilting and dying. Soil temperatures at 2-inch depth are consistently above 85°F. Which disease is most likely responsible, and what cultural practice best addresses it?
