Abstract/Contents: | "A test was developed to detect endophyte (Acremonium loliae and A. coenophialum) hyphae in meristems and leaf sheaths of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea). Seeds were soaked 1 hr in captafol (4F) at 14,780 ug/ml or 7,390 ug/ml in deionized water, air-dried overnight, and germinated (7 days at 5 C in dark, followed by 14 days at 8 hr light 25 C and 16 hr dark at 15 C). Seedlings were digested 16-18 hr in 5% NaOH with 0.1% trypan blue, boiled 20 min in lactophenol with 0.1% trypan blue, squash-mounted, and examined at x200. Captafol at 7,390 ug/ml reduced seedborne species of Alternaria, Cladosporium, and Epicoccum, allowed growth of A. coenophialum and A. loliae in meristems or leaf sheaths, and caused no phytotoxicity. Captafol at 7,390 ug/ml stunted roots. The technique provides a rapid method for detecting viable endophytes in these grass species." |
