To our MTF partners, Dr. Nikolai offers an update on his research regarding Poa seedhead suppression. "In collaboration with Dr Adam Van Dyke in Utah and the input and support of industry representatives Nikolai PhD and his awesome technician Eric Galbraith are researching possible methods to decrease Poa seedheads on golf courses in Michigan and beyond each spring. The image is of pesticide, PGR, and fertilizer combo treatments. The image displays one of three Poa Seedhead suppression studies performed by Dr. Nikola and funded by the Michigan Turfgrass Foundation. Certainly there are visual differences among treatments, but all that will matter is will any of these treatments decrease seedheads and if not, will it lead to combinations that may eventually lead to suppression? Thank you MTF for your support of MSU Turfgrass Research."
