Variability of Ergovaline and Total Ergot Alkaloid Expression among Endophytic Tall Fescue Cultivars
Crop Science, Volume 59, Issue 6, Page 2866-2875, November-December 2019., 2019 ABSTRACT Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum [Schreb.] Darbysh.) is one of the most widely grown grasses in the United States. Most plants are infected with an endophyte, Epichloë coenophiala Bacon and Schardl. This endophyte produces high concentrations of ergot alkaloids, which cause fescue toxicosis in livestock. The economic losses to the US livestock

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, July/August 2026.Abstract Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a widely grown perennial forage legume that supports sustainable livestock production through its high nutritive value and bioactive isoflavones. Future climate change, particularly warming and increased rainfall, may influence forage accumulation and isoflavone concentrations.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Cross‐sectional survey and retrospective data on the oestrus synchronization were collected and analysed. The predominant mating system practiced by dairy farmers was AI (55.6%), and 73.5% of farmers apply controlled mating. The highest response rate and pregnancy rate were 89.5% and 45.2%, respectively, whereas a birth rate of 9.6%–18.5% was obtained.

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.
