Gray leaf spot vs. soil moisture (VWC)
View Larger
Kikuyugrass in drier soils (with lower VWC or volumetric water content) had a significantly higher damage from gray leaf spot (GLS) than kikuyugrass in moist soils. VWC values are relative numbers and were measured with Spectrum Fieldscout TDR 300 soil moisture meter. Southern California, September, 2006.
