Abstract/Contents: | "Reports that infection by a fungal endophyte, Acremonium loliae, improves tolerance of perennial ryegrass to drought stress were evaluated in greenhouse experiments. Endophyte was eliminated by growing tillers in sand amended with 200 ppm benomyl. Same-clonal plants with and without endophyte were grown in field soil amended with 5 g/L 14-14-14 fertilizer. Pots were weighed daily and watered to saturation when pot weights corresponded to soil water potentials of -0.4, -0.2, or -15 bars. After 7 wk in one trial, shoot and root dry weights of endophyte-free plants were significantly greater than for endophyte-infected plants at all watering treatments. In two other trials, endophyte infection had no significant effect on growth at any watering treatment." |
