Determination of Loline Alkaloids and Mycelial Biomass in Endophyte-Infected Schedonorus pratensis by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Chemometrics Open
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an accurate, fast and nondestructive technique whose use in predicting forage quality has become increasingly relevant in recent decades. Epichloë-infected grass varieties are commonly used in areas wit…

Mycelial biomass and concentration of loline alkaloids driven by complex population structure in <i>Epichloë uncinata</i> and meadow fescue (<i>Schedonorus pratensis</i>) Open
Many efforts have been made to select and isolate naturally occurring animal-friendly Epichloë strains for later reinfection into elite cultivars. Often this process involves large-scale screening of Epichloë-infected wild grass population…

Large Scale Screening of Epichloë Endophytes Infecting Schedonorus pratensis and Other Forage Grasses Reveals a Relation Between Microsatellite-Based Haplotypes and Loline Alkaloid Levels Open
Species belonging to the Festuca-Lolium complex are often naturally infected with endophytic fungi of genus Epichloë. Recent studies on endophytes have shown the beneficial roles of host-endophyte associations as protection against insect …
