Risks for animal health related to the presence of ergot alkaloids in feed
EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 1, January 2024.Abstract The European Commission requested EFSA to provide an update of the 2012 Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM) on the risks for animal health related to the presence of ergot alkaloids (EAs) in feed. EAs are produced by several fungi of the Claviceps and Epichloë genera.

Dataset of the Effects of a Low Dose of Isoflavones in Beef Cattle Undergoing Tall Fescue Toxicosis
DataTall fescue toxicosis negatively impacts blood flow, elevates body temperature, and reduces beef cattle’s average daily gain (ADG). In previous studies, isoflavones have diminished the symptoms of tall fescue toxicosis in ruminants.

A feed-restriction model to identify factors responsible for fescue toxicosis-induced reduction in food intake [abstract] [PDF]
, 2007 only availableFescue toxicosis results from intake of ergopeptine alkaloids derived from a fungus (Neotyphodium coenophialum ) in tall fescue, and produces reduced productivity. Contributors to this reduction are decreased feed intake and growth.
