Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the endophyte, focusing on endophytes found in cool season grasses because "these are the best understood and the most useful to turf managers." Describes the history and discovery of endophytes, how they live and reproduce, how they work, and how they interact with turfgrass. Overviews future research in endophytes, including how they interact with other turfgrass species, toxicity to vertebrates, and infection percentage and seed viability. |
