Development of a genetic evaluation for hair shedding in American Angus cattle to improve thermotolerance

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2020
Background Heat stress and fescue toxicosis caused by ingesting tall fescue infected with the endophytic fungus Epichloë coenophiala represent two of the most prevalent stressors to beef cattle in the United States and cost the beef industry millions of ...

Beef cattle that respond differently to fescue toxicosis have distinct gastrointestinal tract microbiota.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) is a widely used forage grass which shares a symbiosis with the endophytic fungus Epichloë coenophiala. The endophyte produces an alkaloid toxin that provides herbivory, heat and drought resistance to the grass, but can ...

Tall fescue cultivar and fungal endophyte combinations influence plant growth and root exudate composition

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.)) is a cool-season perennial grass used in pastures throughout the Southeastern United States. The grass can harbor a shoot-specific fungal endophyte (Epichloë coenophiala) thought to provide the plant with ...

Tall fescue seed extraction and partial purification of ergot alkaloids

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2014
Many substances in the tall fescue/endophyte association (Schedonorus arundinaceus/Epichloë coenophiala) have biological activity. Of these compounds only the ergot alkaloids are known to have significant mammalian toxicity and the predominant ergot ...

Mitigation of ergot vasoconstriction by clover isoflavones in goats (Capra hircus)

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2016
Ergot alkaloids produced by a fungal endophyte (Epichloë coenophiala; formerly Neotyphodium coenphialum) that infects tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) can induce persistent constriction of the vasculature in ruminants, hindering their capability to ...
