Tall Fescue Toxicosis
widely used forage crop. It is insect and nematode resistant, tolerates poor soil and climatic conditions well and has a long growing season. Unfortunately, tall fescue also has a downside. Most tall fescue in the state is infected with a fungal endophyte, Neotyphodium coenophialum (formerly called Acremonium coenophialum) that is toxic to animals. Tall fescue was brought to this country from E...
متن کاملForages and pastures symposium: managing the tall fescue-fungal endophyte symbiosis for optimum forage-animal production.
Alkaloids produced by the fungal endophyte (Neotyphodium coenophialum) that infects tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh.] are a paradox to cattle production. Although certain alkaloids impart tall fescue with tolerances to environmental stresses, such as moisture, heat, and herbivory, ergot alkaloids produced by the endophyte can induce fescue toxicosis, a malady that adversely a...
متن کاملNovel Endophyte-Infected Tall Fescue
Tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub) is a cool season perennial grass that fills a critical forage produc-tion gap in the Southeast and is the predominant forage crop in much of the U.S. In fact, this species is the most widely used grass in improved U.S. pastures, occupying more than 36 million acres. Its popularity is related to establishment ease, drought tolerance, excellent graz...
متن کاملIntake estimation of horses grazing tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) or fed tall fescue hay.
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. When fed pasture, horses were housed in stalls from 0700 to 1300 h daily with access to water and then grazed pasture...
متن کاملErgopeptine Alkaloids in Grazed Tall Fescue
Endophyte (Acremonium cotnophiaJum Morgan-Jones et Gams) -Infected tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) produces ergopeptiDe alkaloids (EP) that may be associated with fescue toxicosis symptoms in cattle (B03 taurus). A study was conducted during 1983 and 1984 at Watkinsville, GA, to determine the effects of endophyte infection, season, and N fertilization on EP concentration and Steer ave...
