Descripción de un brote de “pie de festuca” en bovinos de cría en la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina [PDF]
Se describe un brote de claudicación crónica en bovinos adultos en un rodeo de cría de la provincia de Buenos Aires, asociado a gangrena seca de las extremidades por consumo de Schedonorus arundinacea infectada con el hongo endófito Epichloë coenophiala.

Integrative interactomics applied to bovine fescue toxicosis [PDF]
Bovine fescue toxicosis (FT) is caused by grazing ergot alkaloid-producing endophyte (Epichloë coenophiala)-infected tall fescue. Endophyte’s effects on the animal’s microbiota and metabolism were investigated recently, but its effects in planta or on ...

Historical contingency in parasite community assembly: Community divergence results from early host exposure to symbionts and ecological drift. [PDF]
Host individuals are commonly coinfected with multiple parasite species that may interact to shape within-host parasite community structure. In addition to within-host species interactions, parasite communities may also be structured by other processes ...

Endophyte Infected Tall Fescue: Plant Symbiosis to Animal Toxicosis [PDF]
Endophyte-infected fescue is a major cool season forage used for livestock production in the United States and through other areas of the world. A unique aspect of this forage resource is the symbiotic relationship with an endophytic fungus (Epichloë ...

Influence of Tall Fescue Epichloë Endophytes on Rhizosphere Soil Microbiome
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) S.J. Darbyshire) often forms a symbiotic relationship with fungal endophytes (Epichloë coenophiala), which provides increased plant performance and greater tolerance to environmental stress compared to endophyte-

Indirect interactions among co-infecting parasites and a microbial mutualist impact disease progression. [PDF]
Interactions among parasites and other microbes within hosts can impact disease progression, yet study of such interactions has been mostly limited to pairwise combinations of microbes.

Contrasting Effects of Grass - Endophyte Chemotypes on a Tri-Trophic Cascade. [PDF]
Systemic grass-endophytes of the genus Epichloë symbiotically infect the above-ground plant parts of many grass species, where they produce alkaloids in a grass- and endophyte-specific manner that are toxic or deterrent to herbivores.
