| Abstract/Contents: | "Endophytic fungi of turf and forage grasses have been known for many years. Recently, there has been increased interest in these fungi because of the strong relationship between the presence of the fungi in grasses and resistance to certain insect pests. In order to facilitate screening a large number of plants in breeding programs, it was desirable to have a rapid staining procedure. Previously developed methods were time consuming and required careful boiling of the plant tissue. Our investigations indicated a simple, effective method of staining could be developed using rose bengal stain. The rose bengal staining procedure gave excellent visual results over a range of pH and stain concentrations. Minimal staining time (3 to 6 min.) gave good fungal differentiation even in thick tissues and no additional fixing was necessary. This simple, rapid staining technique should facilitate mass screening of plant material for the presence of endophytic fungi." |
