Description
Translation provided by the authors. Genetic plant resistance to pests including insects, mites, and diseases is an effective and economical control strategy and should be a major component of every Integrated Pest Management program when resistant cultivars are available. A major need in the turfgrass industry is the continued development of improved cultivars with inherent resistance to the primary turfgrass pests regardless of their utilization from production fields to installed landscapes, golf courses, or recreational fields. When pest resistant cultivars are used in the landscape, they will help to reduce the need for pesticide input into urban and suburban landscapes and indirectly reduce the potential for environmental contamination.
