Zusammenfassung:The effects of management practices and nematode population density on the seasonal fluctuationsin lance nematode (Hoplolaimus galeatus) populations in creeping bentgrass were studiedin a naturally infested experimental putting green and in artificially infested microplots. In general, H. galeatus populations increased from late spring through midsummer, declined in August, and increased again in the fall. Population increase in microplots was strongly density dependent, with final population densities inversely proportional to inoculum levels. Ectoparasitic populationsof H. galeatus in both studies were composed of adults and juveniles, whereas endoparasiticpopulations were almost exclusively juveniles. H. galeatus populations in the naturallyinfested site were aggregated spatially, but the aggregation was not temporally stable. Nematodepopulations were not affected by bentgrass cultivar selection or irrigation frequency
