| Abstract/Contents: | "Populations of aster leafhoppers, Macrosteles fascifrons, (ALH) were subjected to feeding trials on perennial ryegrass, tall fescue and Chewings fescue to determine feeding preference or deterrence. The plant samples consisted of genetically identical clones of these three grasses that, were either infected (El) or free from infection (EF) by their respective endophyte, viz., A. lolii, A. coenophialum or A. typhinum. The results indicate that, when given a choice, ALH preferred to feed on EF tall fescue rather than on El tall fescue. In contrast, ALH preferred to feed on El rather than on EF Chewings fescue. Tests with perennial ryegrass showed no clear-cut preference for either El or EF ryegrass plants. These results suggest that an antifeedant component is associated with A. coenophialum-infected tall fescue, and that it may be responsible for the feeding deterrence of M. fascifrons. Such components associated with A. lolli-infected perennial ryegrass and A. typhinum-infected Chewings fescue, if present, appear to have little or no effect on feeding by M. fascifrons." |
