MIAMI A plant disease linked to sugarcane that had largely vanished 40 years ago has suddenly reappeared, becoming the first virus in the state to attack South Florida's manicured lawns.
Scientists don't know why the disease suddenly morphed and began spreading in Palm Beach and Pinellas counties.
And so far they have no tools to stop it, other than cleaning lawn equipment or replacing sod with more resilient varieties, said Phil Harmon, a plant pathologist with the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.
"At this point we don't know what the outcome will be, so we're being proactive and trying to get the word out," Harmon said.
Called Sugarcane Mosaic Virus, the disease first appeared in sugarcane and sod growing near cane fields in the 1960s, Harmon said.
To control the disease, growers developed resistant sugarcane. The virus virtually disappeared, only appearing sporadically in grass near cane fields and only causing yellowing.
But in 2013 something changed, he said. Lawns with the popular Floratam St. Augustine grass, the most widely used in landscaping, started dying.
"The virus adapted somewhere to kill this variety of turf grass," Harmon said.
When the grass started dying at a Boynton Beach subdivision last fall, Greg Russell, a field supervisor with Hometown Pest Control, assumed a fungus was making it sick and applied a fungicide. The treatment didn't work.
Over the spring and summer, the grass bounced back on its own, Russell said.

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden spent four hours talking with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoan in Istanbul Saturday in what was seen as a fence-mending foray in the wake of Biden's remarks criticizing Turkey for not doing enough to keep Islamic State group supporters from joining the carnage in Syria. Biden and Erdoan discussed a wide range of issues, including Iraq, Syria and Cyprus.
"I have great respect for the president," said Biden, who had already apologized for his earlier remarks at Harvard in early October. " And we have always had a direct, frank and open discussion on every issue because that's what friends do, thats what allies do."
Biden and Erdoan said the United States and Turkey are on "the same page" regarding Iraq and Syria. Today's Zaman noted Turkey has been pushing for a more comprehensive approach to Syria, not just containing ISIS but also removing President Bashar Assad from power.
"We gladly saw that we have the same opinion with the United States on most of the issues we discussed. We confirmed our decision to improve our co-operation. Most importantly, as being two NATO allies, we confirmed once more our commitment to each other's defense and security," Erdoan said.
Biden pledged $135 million in additional aid to Turkey to help deal with the flood of refugees from Syria, saying he knows that's not enough to deal with the crisis.
"Its the government and the people of Turkey that have often cared for those displaced by this war. Accommodating so many is a costly proposition," Biden said. "And the United States has provided humanitarian assistance inside Turkey to refugee countries holding them, but it should not in any way underestimate the amount of the requirements that have imposed upon the president and the people of Turkey."
About 300 people protested Biden's visit, USA Today and the Associated Press reported. Demonstrators chanted, "Biden get out. The country is ours." The protest was organized by the same group that targeted three U.S. sailors in Istanbul with chants of "Yankee, go home" last week.
The talks came amid a backdrop of U.S. airstrikes that have killed 910 people in Syria, including 52 civilians, since September. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 785 of the deaths were Islamic State fighters.

Vice President Biden Mends Fences In Turkey, Pledges More Funds For Humanitarian Aid
ISTANBUL, Turkey After an extended period of public estrangement and sniping, the United States and Turkey have made up and say they are heading toward close cooperation on defeating the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, and eventually seeing the end of the Syrian government of President Bashar Assad.
Vice President Joe Biden, who met for four hours here Saturday with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, called the bilateral relationship "as strong as it has ever been." Erdogan described Biden's three-day visit as "very meaningful."
The visit did not result in any firm new agreements over such sensitive issues as Turkey's long-standing call that protected buffer zones be created inside Syria along the Turkish border, or U.S. requests to use Turkey's Incirlik Air Base to fly bombing missions against ISIS. But officials from both governments said their cooperation was growing.
Senior U.S. and Turkish officials said their rapprochement has intensified since summer with a series of high-level meetings, including a near-constant flow of visits to Turkey by senior U.S. diplomatic and military officials in the weeks before Biden's trip.
Turkey, which is hosting about 1.6million Syrian refugees, has expressed concern that President Barack Obama's decision to launch airstrikes against ISIS militants controlling much of northern and eastern Syria will push the insurgents into Turkish territory. Erdogan and Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu also have charged that, with the U.S. bombing campaign against the militants, Obama has lost interest in Turkey's primary goal of helping moderate Syrian opposition rebels to oust Assad.
While the Syrian war has raged for more than three years, Turkey has called for U.S. airstrikes against Syrian government forces. The government's anxiety has grown as the rebels have been driven out of most of their remaining strongholds in northwestern Syria by Assad's military and other militant groups, while the rest of the world has been transfixed by the advance of ISIS.
The United States opposes a buffer zone, and especially the use of U.S. air power to defend one. But the Obama administration has expressed some interest in using rebel forces being trained in a covert CIA program to establish havens along the border with help from Washington and Turkey. The administration recently decided to expand that program, even as Congress has authorized the U.S. military to begin its own training program for rebels to take over territory farther east that is being held by ISIS.
A U.S.-Turkish agreement last month to facilitate the transport and entry of Iraqi Kurdish fighters into the Syrian town of Kobani to battle ISIS fighters also contributed to the new rapprochement between the two governments that Biden's trip was designed in part to solidify.

Wallingford resident Ken Cooley checks his mailbox outside of his Tankwood Road home. Town crews began the repaving process this fall but put off finishing it until spring due to the weather. | Eric Cotton/Record-Journal

WALLINGFORD Finishing the reconstruction of Tankwood Road in Wallingford will have to wait until spring due to frost and the seasonal closing of an asphalt supplier much to the dismay of residents unhappy with the roads condition.
The road is littered with potholes, ridges and rough patches. The sides of the street are lined with loose processed stone, which some residents worry will end up on lawns and driveways.
Public Works Director Henry McCully said the project consisted of stripping the road, replacing drainage systems and repaving. The road has already been stripped and the drains replaced, but repaving will be delayed. McCully said the project took longer than expected because of unanticipated work discovered only when crews began digging.
We had some unexpected repairs to do, McCully said. The sort of thing you run into once you start the project.
Tankwood Road is located north of Route 68, off North Farms Road. Ken Cooleys house is directly in front of a rough ridge in the street. He says he often hears drivers bottom out when they hit the ridge.
I wish they would finish it, Cooley said. It would make it a lot easier driving down this road.
Cooley said he is worried plows could strike the raised edges of recently installed storm drains.
