Abstract/Contents:"Samples of Kentucky bluegrass grown for seed in eastern and central OR were cleaned to remove debris but retain seed and sclerotia (ergot) of Claviceps purpurea. Ten-gm subsamples were examined under 5X magnification and ergot were counted. In central OR in 1992 and in 1993 and in eastern OR in 1991-1993, 79, 104, 74, 56, and 67 samples, respectively, were examined. Ergot were found in 38-76% of samples; >1 ergot/gm seed occurred in 19-38% of samples and >10 occurred in 2-10% of samples. Although <1% seed were infected, 1-10% of seed lots required recleaning. Cost of recleaning seed in 1995 to meet purity standards was about 44 cents/kg seed. Additional seed loss may occur during combining or cleaning when honeydew, a sugary, sticky exudate occurring during floral infection, aggregates seed and debris."
