Paspalum has very few disease problems
when maintained under recommended fertility
levels and cultural practices. When infected
by diseases such as fusarium blight organisms,
which may occur under humid and hot conditions,
or in extensive exposure to draught, the
entire Turfgrass plant will change color
from green to reddish brown. Helminthosporium
disease may also occur under conditions
of high humidity or soil compaction. This
disease is seen as small purple leaf spots
with brown centers and light tan halos.
