Toxic fungi isolated from tall fescue

Mycopathologia et Mycologia Applicata, 1967
Extracts of cold-grown common molds isolated from tall fescue forage produce toxic effects on rabbit skin and hemorrhagic death in mice. A mixture ofCladosporium cladosporioides andFusarium nivale produced ruminal atony in a sheep. The clinical findings in the sheep show some similarity to those of cattle on toxic fescue pastures.

Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)

2006
Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is the predominant cool-season perennial grass in the United States. It is widely used for both forage and turf purposes. This chapter describes a protocol that allows for the generation of a large number of transgenic tall fescue plants by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation.

Intake estimation of horses grazing tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) or fed tall fescue hay

Journal of Animal Science, 2014
Six mature geldings of light horse breeds (557 ± 37 kg) were randomly assigned to a nontoxic endophyte-infected tall fescue hay (n = 3) or pasture treatment (n = 3) in a crossover design with 14-d periods to estimate DMI with alkane markers and to compare DMI of hay and pasture.

Meiotic Instability of Tall Fescue ✕ Giant Fescue Amphiploids

Crop Science, 1989
Amphiploids of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and giant fescue [F. gigantea (L.) Vill.] have high forage quality but are meiotically irregular and have low seed yield. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of generation advance and cytoplasm on meiotic behavior of tall fescue ✕ giant fescue amphiploid derivatives.

Summer Fescue Toxicity in Dairy Steers Fed Tall Fescue Seed

Journal of Animal Science, 1984
Seeds of the tall fescue ( Festuca arundinacea Schreb .) cultivars Kentucky 31 and an experimental ryegrass X tall fescue hybrid derivative strain (G1-307), and orchard grass (OG) seed were fed in a carrier diet to calves in controlled environmental rooms (31 to 32 C).

Acremonium Endophytes in Mediterranean Tall Fescue

1997
There is a growing awareness among plant scientists that clavicipitaceous anamorphic endophytes infecting grasses constitute a valuable genetic resource (microbial germplasm) for use in improving forage and turf grass performance (Clement et al 1994, Wilson 1996).

Transgenic Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea)

2000
Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is the predominant cool-season grass species that is grown on about 35 million acres in the United States (Barnes 1990). Forage-type and turf-type tall fescue are extensively cultivated on pastures, parks, lawns, highway medians, athletic stadia, and golf course fairways.
