Plant and Endophyte Effect on Fiber, N, and P Concentrations in Tall Fescue

International Journal of Agronomy, 2011
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 ...

Low‐disturbance restoration of degraded orchardgrass pastures: Forage productivity and soil C and N responses

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Degraded cool‐season grass pastures pose a major challenge for sustainable forage production in the southeastern United States. Orchardgrass (OG; Dactylis glomerata L.), a widely used forage species, often exhibits poor persistence under suboptimal management and environmental stress, requiring restoration.

Autonomous and reel mowers in golf course fairway maintenance: A case study in Italy

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The golf industry is undergoing a technological transformation with the integration of autonomous solutions for turf maintenance. The implementation of autonomous mowers (AMs) offers the potential for maintaining low cutting heights at high frequencies, thereby reducing soil compaction and labor requirements.

The Alleviation of Heat Damage to Photosystem II and Enzymatic Antioxidants by Exogenous Spermidine in Tall Fescue

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb) is a typical cool-season grass that is widely used in turf and pasture. However, high temperature as an abiotic stress seriously affects its utilization.

De Novo Assembly and Characterization of Tall Fescue Transcriptome under Water Stress

The Plant Genome, 2015
Water stress is a fundamental problem for tall fescue [ (Schreb.) Darbysh.] cultivation in the south–central United States. Genetic improvement of tall fescue for water-stress tolerance is the key strategy for improving its persistence in the region ...

Late-spring Turfgrass Establishment without Herbicides

HortTechnology, 2023
Spring establishment of turfgrass that is managed without herbicides is subject to weed competition, resulting in reduced turfgrass cover. The objective of this experiment was to find an acceptable method for spring turfgrass establishment without the ...

Establishment strategies for native warm‐season grasses: Organic and conventional approaches

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Native warm‐season grasses (NWSG) adoption is limited partly due to establishment challenges, especially weed competition. The objective was to develop establishment protocols for switchgrass [Panicum virgatum (L.) ‘Vitman’; SG], eastern gamagrass [Tripsacum dactyloides (L.); EG] and a mix of Indiangrass [Sorghastrum nutans (L.) ‘Nash’; IG ...

Effects of endophyte-infected tall fescue seed and red clover isoflavones on rumen microbial populations and physiological parameters of beef cattle

Translational Animal Science, 2018
Lolium arundinaceum [(Darbyshire) tall fescue] toxicosis is responsible for substantial beef production losses in the United States, due to its negative effects on reproduction, growth, and feed efficiency.

Seasonal and diurnal variation in forage nutritive value of cool‐season grasses as predicted by near‐infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS)

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract A better understanding of seasonal and diurnal variation in forage nutritive value may help to maximize protein intake and digestibility for grazing livestock. Forage nutritive value was evaluated in four cool‐season grasses common to Kentucky pastures: orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.; OG), perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.

An online survey of farmers' perspectives on the adoption of multispecies swards: Barriers, benefits and knowledge gaps

Grassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 376-388, December 2025.
An Irish farmer survey found that multispecies swards can reduce fertiliser use and enhance drought resilience and biodiversity. While awareness is high, adoption is limited by challenges like weed control and grazing management. Farmers want clearer guidance and prefer learning through hands‐on events like open days and discussion groups.
