Overview
While downy mildew is a frequent issue in warm-season turfgrasses, the symptoms and effects can vary greatly between grass species, as is the case with St. Augustine grass and zoysia grass. Leaf blades of infected St. Augustine grass are easily and uniquely distinguished by white or yellow-green linear streaks running parallel to the leaf veins. This publication also features multiple examples of downy mildew through photos. (2 pages)
