Effect of Endophyte infection and clipping treatment on resistance and tolerance of Achnatherum sibiricum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
It is well-documented that endophytes can enhance the resistance of agronomical grasses, such as tall fescue and perennial ryegrass to herbivory. For native grasses, however, the related reports are limited, and the conclusions are variable.

Bioactive Chemicals of Importance in Endophyte-Infected Grasses

open access: yes, 2009
Janthitrems are believed to be involved in the observed sporadic cases of AR37- infected perennial ryegrass staggers. Investigations into the role of janthitrems in perennial ryegrass staggers are difficult as isolation of the compounds from the ryegrass

Growth and reproduction of endophyte-infected and endophyte-free tall fescue in different environmental conditions.

open access: yes, 2016
Biomass (x±S.E.) and number of flowerheads (x±S.E.) of endophyte free (E-), endophyte infected (E+) and manipulatively endophyte free (ME-) tall fescue plants in Finland and Kentucky field experiments in years 2005 and 2006.

Seasonal growth and reproductive dynamics of Chondrus ocellatus in relation to shore height in the Korean intertidal zone

open access: yesPhycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY We examined the seasonal growth and reproduction of the carrageenophyte Chondrus ocellatus in Hakampo, Korea (July 2014–April 2015), to understand its adaptation to environmental variability across the intertidal zone. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) growth is greater at the lower shore with reduced stress; (2) gametophytes dominate at the ...

Endophyte-grass technology: obstacles in the production and delivery of a quality seed product

open access: yes, 2019
The viability of fungal endophyte (Epichloë species) within seed generally declines faster than seed viability. This can result in forage grass populations harbouring a reduced endophyte infection frequency that is less than anticipated. As the inclusion

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Environmental factors affect the distribution of two Epichloë fungal endophyte species inhabiting a common host grove bluegrass (Poa alsodes)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Aim The endophyte Epichloë alsodes, with known insecticidal properties, is found in a majority of Poa alsodes populations across a latitudinal gradient from North Carolina to New York. A second endophyte, E. schardlii var.

Leaf endophyte load influences fungal garden development in leaf-cutting ants

open access: yesBMC Ecology, 2012
Background Previous work has shown that leaf-cutting ants prefer to cut leaf material with relatively low fungal endophyte content. This preference suggests that fungal endophytes exact a cost on the ants or on the development of their colonies.

Long-term Agronomic Performance and Animal Performance on Stockpiled Jessup Tall Fescue with Varying Endophyte Status.

open access: yes, 2007
The objective of this study was two fold. The first objective was to evaluate the long term agronomic performance of endophyte-infected (E+), endophyte-free (E-) and novel endophyte-infected (EN) tall fescue when stockpiled and intensively grazed in the ...

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.
