Fairy rings and basidiocarps of fungi in lawns — literature review)
Abstract
The paper describes the cycle of disease development, types of symptoms in lawn and presents edaphic and lectophilic fungi as causal agents of fairy rings and their harmfulness. Chemical methods and cultural practices in controlling fairy rings are reviewed. Low efficiency of these methods is emphasized. Management procedures that may limit the fungi development in lawns are recommended to reduce the occurrence of fairy rings.
