CAN INCREASING GRASS-FUNGAL ENDOPHYTE SYMBIOTIC DIVERSITY ENHANCE GRASSLAND ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING? [PDF]
, 2018 The relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning is important in maintaining agroecosystem sustainability. Plant-microbe symbioses, such as exists between the grass tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceum) and the asexual fungal endophyte ...

Transcriptomics of Epichloë-Grass Symbioses in Host Vegetative and Reproductive Stages.
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2019 Epichloë species are fungal symbionts (endophytes) of cool-season grasses that transmit vertically via inflorescence primordia (IP), ovaries (OV), and ultimately, embryos.

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 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 ...

Advances in research of Achnatherum inebrians-Epichloë endophyte symbionts
, 2018 Research on drunken horse grass (Achnatherum inebrians)-endophytic fungi (Epichloë gansuensis, E. inebrians) represented an important area of endophyte research in China. Compared with tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea)-endophyte (E.

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 ...
