Method of treating fescue toxicosis with domperidone

open access: yes, 1994
A novel method for using domperidone, a dopamine receptor antagonist, for treating fescue toxicosis in animals is provided. Fescue toxicosis is caused by animals grazing on endophyte-infected fescue grass.

Evaluation of Electrocution for Weed Control and Tall Fescue Seedhead Reduction in Missouri Pastures

open access: yesWeed Technology
Despite its efficacy, little research has been conducted to evaluate the potential for electrocution to control common weeds in pastures. Electrocution could also potentially be utilized as a management tool to minimize the production of tall fescue ...

Evaluating Blood Perfusion of the Corpus Luteum in Beef Cows during Fescue Toxicosis

open access: yes, 2015
Fescue toxicosis is a common problem in beef cattle grazing endophyte-infected (E+) tall fescue. Symptoms include decreases in feed intake, weight gain, and reproductive efficiency along with vasoconstriction.

The Effects of Endophyte-Infected Tall Fescue on the Production and Reproductive Performance Parameters of Beef Cattle and Calves

open access: yesGrasses
Records from 2012 to 2019 for two herds were analyzed to determine how tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumont) endophyte (Epichloë coenophialum) status affected the productivity of spring-calving cows and calves. Pastures either contained

Fescue Toxicosis

open access: yes, 2014
Tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh.] is a cool-season, perennial grass frequently infected with the fungal endophyte Neotyphodium coenophialum.

Characterization of Epichloë coenophiala within the U.S.: are all tall fescue endophytes created equal?

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2014
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) is a valuable and broadly adapted forage grass that occupies approximately 14 million hectares across the United States. A native to Europe, tall fescue was likely introduced into the U.S. around the late 1800’s. Much of

Genetic variation of susceptibility to fescue toxicosis in cattle

open access: yes, 2009
Fifteen calves of two sires were fed endophyte infected (E + ) fescue seed to quantify differences in susceptibility to fescue toxicosis among sire groups.

Effects of Clipping Heifer Hair Coats on Vaginal Temperatures and Performance of Fall-Born Heifers Stocked on Toxic Endophyte-Infected Tall Fescue During the Summer

open access: yesGrasses
Achieving satisfactory levels of weight gain for developing replacement beef heifers is challenging when utilizing toxic endophyte-infected tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus) as the primary forage.

Summer-long grazing of high versus low endophyte (Neotyphodium coenophialum)-infected tall fescue by growing beef steers results in distinct temporal blood analyte response patterns, with poor correlation to serum prolactin levels

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2015
Previously, we reported the effects of fescue toxicosis on developing Angus-cross steer growth, carcass, hepatic mRNA and protein expression profiles of selected serum proteins, and blood clinical and chemical profiles, after summer-long grazing (85 d ...

An evaluation of tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) as an alternative to perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) for use on dairy farms in the Waikato

open access: yes, 2011
Grazed pasture provides the bulk of feed on New Zealand dairy farms. As such, the amount, and the nutritive value, of the pasture grown directly influences farm production and profitability.
