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

Grasses
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

Root Herbivory: Grass Species, Epichloë Endophytes and Moisture Status Make a Difference

Microorganisms, 2020
The root-feeding scarab insect Costelytra giveni causes severe damage to pasture ecosystems in New Zealand. Loline alkaloids produced by some Epichloë endophytes deter this insect. In two experiments, tall fescue infected with E.

Transcriptomic profiling revealed the role of 24-epibrassinolide in alleviating salt stress damage in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Soil salinization is a major problem all over the world. The accumulation of salt in soil reduces the root water uptake and directly affects plant growth and metabolic activities.

High-resolution mass spectrometry-based non-targeted metabolomics reveals toxicity of naphthalene on tall fescue and intrinsic molecular mechanisms

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous at relatively high concentrations by atmospheric deposition, and they are threatening to the environment.

Analysis of tall fescue ESTs representing different abiotic stresses, tissue types and developmental stages

BMC Plant Biology, 2008
Background Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb) is a major cool season forage and turf grass species grown in the temperate regions of the world. In this paper we report the generation of a tall fescue expressed sequence tag (EST) database developed ...

Reciprocal Effects of Silicon Supply and Endophytes on Silicon Accumulation and Epichloë Colonization in Grasses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Cool season grasses associate asymptomatically with foliar Epichloë endophytic fungi in a symbiosis where Epichloë spp. protects the plant from a number of biotic and abiotic stresses.

Bioextraction of Soil Boron by Tall Fescue

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1995
High concentrations of soil B are detrimental to crop productivity in certain arid and semiarid regions of the western United States. Production of tall fescue on B-affected soils may be a viable strategy to reduce and maintain soil B concentrations at nontoxic levels for most agronomic crops.

Herbage components in nitrogen‐fertilized and legume‐containing double‐cropped annual and perennial forages in eastern Nebraska

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Diverse perennial circular systems that focus on grazing offer many environmental benefits. However, the use of annual forages may be necessary where perennial pastures have declined. Our study sought to evaluate herbage components in a double‐cropped annual forage experiment with triticale [×Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus (Secale × Triticum)

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

, 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.

Non-Invasive Techniques Reveal Heifer Response to Fescue Endophyte Type in Grazing Studies

Animals, 2023
Cattle grazing tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceous) infected with wild-type endophytes (WE) leads to a syndrome commonly known as fescue toxicosis. Replacing WE tall fescue with a novel endophyte-infected (NE) tall fescue can mitigate this problem but
