The prediction of infection periods for lettuce downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) is based on the assumption that spores are produced at night and released in the early morning. The divergent light conditions at Nordic latitudes might affect both sporulation and spore release. Therefore, we monitored release of B. lactucae spores in relation to the climatic conditions in lettuce fields to evaluate the performance of existing forecasting models in timing of fungicide applications for management of lettuce downy mildew in Norway. In 2005, epidemics were created at two field locations that had no previous lettuce production, and a total of 59 days of spore trapping permitted the study of spore release under natural conditions. Sporulation events were compared to predicted spore production events in Modell-Analys (MA). At the two locations, 76 % and 74 % of the spores were trapped between 08.00 and 16.00, respectively. Spore concentration icreased with decreasing relative humidity (RH), ofting coinciding with increasing solar radiation and temperature. Spore production events predicted by MA were correct at 66 % of the days. However, when the criteria for spore production were adjusted, 78 % of the days were correctly predicted.

Several models for prediction of infection periods for lettuce downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) are based on the assumption that spores are produced at night and released in the early morning. The divergent light conditions at Nordic latitudes might affect both sporulation and spore release. Therefore, during the period 2001 to 2005 a total of 13 field trials were established in late season lettuce fields to evaluate efficacy of fungicide applications made according to the models PlantPlus (PP) and Modell-Analys (MA) in Norway. Disease severity varied from 0 to 89.4 % in unsprayed control plots at harvest. Fungicide treatments had a significant effect compared to untreated control in all but two of the field trials with disease incidence over 1 % at harvest. Fungicide applications at 10-day intervals and according to PP and MA resulted in an average of 3, 2.5 and 3.3 applications, respectively. There were no significant differences in disease severity at harvest between treatments according to 10-day interval, PP and MA for any of the field trials. Epidemics were created at two field locations that had no previous lettuce production, and a total of 59 days of spore trapping permitted the study of spore release under natural conditions. Spore production events predicted by MA were correct at 66 % of the days. However, when adjusting the criteria for spore production, 78 % of the days were correctly predicted.

Twelve fertilizer/biostimulant products or product families were compared with mineral fertilizer in three two-year trials on USGA greens and sand-based football fields in southern Norway. Within each trial, all treatments were received the same amount of total nitrogen per year. Substitution of some of the mineral fertilizer with Gro-Power® improved turfgrass quality in one trial. Otherwise, the organic fertilizers and biostimulants producted results that were equal to or inferior to the control treatment. In conclusion, fertilization of sand-based golf greens and football fields ought to be based on light and frequent applications of mineral fertilizer throughout the growing season. Organic fertilizers and biostimulants can, at best, be supplements to such a fertilizer program.

Summary 1 Ecological and agronomic research suggests that increased crop diversity in species poor intensive systems may improve their provision of ecosystem services. Such general predictions can have critical importance for worldwide food production and agricultural practice but are largely untested at higher levels of diversity. 2 We propose new methodology for the design and analysis of experiments to quantify diversity-function relationships. Our methodology can quantify the relative strength of inter-specific interactions that contribute to a functional response, and can disentangle the separate contributions of species richness and relative abundance. 3 Applying our methodology to data from a common experiment at 28 European sites, we show that the above-ground biomass of four-species mixtures (two legumes and two grasses) in intensive grassland systems was consistently greater than that expected from monoculture performance, even at high productivity levels. The magnitude of this effect generally resulted in transgressive overyielding. 4 A combined analysis of first-year results across sites showed that the additional performance of mixtures was driven by the number and strength of pairwise inter-specific interactions and the evenness of the community. In general, all pairwise interactions contributed equally to the additional performance of mixtures; the grass-grass and legume-legume interactions were as strong as those between grasses and legumes. 5 The combined analysis across geographical and temporal scales in our study provides a generality of interpretation of our results that would not have been possible from individual site analyses or experimentation at a single site. 6 Our four-species agricultural grassland communities have proved a simple yet relevant model system for experimentation and development of methodology in diversity-function research. Our study establishes that principles derived from biodiversity research in extensive, semi-natural grassland systems are applicable in intensively managed grasslands with agricultural plant species.
