Loline Alkaloid Gene Clusters of the Fungal Endophyte Neotyphodium Uncinatum [PDF]
Loline alkaloids (LA), which are 1-aminopyrrolizidines with an oxygen bridge, are produced by Epichloë (anamorph=Neotyphodium) species, endophytes of grasses. LA are insecticidal, thus helping protect host plants from insect herbivory.

ABSTRACT Ergot alkaloids (EAs), toxic secondary metabolites produced by Claviceps purpurea, pose food and feed safety concerns for cereal grains, particularly rye and wheat. While EAs are most frequently associated with rye, their occurrence in other cereals has been increasingly reported across diverse regions.

Influence of the Neotyphodium--Tall Fescue Symbiosis on Belowground Processes [PDF]
Much of the work to date on the relationships between cool season grasses and Neotyphodium fungal endophytes has focused on the physiological, biochemical, and genetic ramifications of the host-fungus relationship and the subsequent influence these ...

Contribution of Fungal Loline Alkaloids to Protection from Aphids in a Grass-Endophyte Mutualism
Fungal endophytes provide grasses with enhanced protection from herbivory, drought, and pathogens. The loline alkaloids (saturated 1-aminopyrrolizidines with an oxygen bridge) are fungal metabolites often present in grasses with fungal endophytes of the ...

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.

Plant and Endophyte Effect on Fiber, N, and P Concentrations in Tall Fescue
Tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) infected with an endophyte (Neotyphodium spp.) generally has agronomic advantages over endophyte-free tall fescue. The objective of this study was to determine if endophyte presence (E+) or absence (E−) in three tall ...

Currencies of Mutualisms: Sources of Alkaloid Genes in Vertically Transmitted Epichloae
The epichloae (Epichloë and Neotyphodium species), a monophyletic group of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae, are systemic symbionts of cool-season grasses (Poaceae subfamily Poöideae).

The interactive effects of asexual Epichloë (formerly known as Neotyphodium) endophytes isolated from Hordeum brevisubulatum, Elymus tangutorum and Achnatherum inebrians, and seed-borne fungi on Elymus sibiricus seeds, were determined by an in vitro ...

Trends in semiochemical research highlight promising attractants and repellents for ‘push–pull’ pest control strategies of the grey field slug. Extracts from plants, predators, entomopathogenic fungi, and essential oils demonstrate potential in modifying grey field slug behaviour, inducing avoidance, antifeeding responses, or mortality, offering ...
