| Abstract/Contents: | "Levels of the endophytic fungus (Agremonium coenophialum) were determined in samples of tall fescue (Fustuca arundinacea) plants and seed over a 3-yr period. The mean infection of plant samples from 26 states was 58%; however, seed samples were less infected (54%), particularly when live endophyte was assayed (6%). The cultivar KY-31 was most heavily infected, although endophyte-free seed of this and other cultivars were common. Livestock owners reporting symptoms of fescue toxicity also reported higher levels of infection than owners not observing symptoms." |
