Indole diterpenoid secondary metabolites produced by the Epichloë festucae var. lolii – Lolium perenne symbiosis.
… Lolium perenne (L. perenne) seed infected with Epichloë festucae var. lolii (E. festucae var. lolii) and their biological activity against porina larvae were investigated. Liquid-liquid partitioning of the crude extract, together with a series of bench columns (normal and reversed phase) and …

Analysis of the role of velvet and laeA in the molecular interactions between grass and Epichloë fungal symbionts
Epichloë species form agriculturally important symbioses with many cool season grasses. However, little is known about the molecular details of the interaction and the key regulatory systems involved. VelA and LaeA are two wellknown regulators of different fungal development and metabolic …

Effect of Alternative Management Practices and the Fungal Endophyte (Epichloë festucae var. lolii) on Improving the Longevity of Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in Minnesota
… studied the effect of the fungal endophyte Epichloë festucae var. lolii on the freezing tolerance of a wide array of perennial ryegrass germplasm. Our results showed no direct effect of endophyte on freezing tolerance of perennial ryegrass; however, there was consistent association between …

Unravelling the Ecological and Evolutionary Mysteries of the Rough Fescue Grasses F. Hallii and F. Campestris.
… provenance. Chapter 3 examines the prevalence of Epichloë fungal endophytes in wild rough fescue populations across a mosaic of disturbance conditions at Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park near Cochrane, Alberta. Here, I found high (µ >80%) levels of endophyte infection across all sites, and confirmed, …

Resistance to African black beetle (Heteronychus arator) in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) infected with AR1 endophyte
… outbreaks are now occurring. Selection for Epichloë festucae var. lolii (Latch, M.J. Chr. & Samuels) C. W. Bacon & Schardl, stat. nov. et comb. nov. endophyte-perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) associations which do not cause toxicity to livestock and with strong resistance to African …

Investigation of signalling involved in maintaining the mutually beneficial association between Epichloe festucae and perennial ryegrass : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Genetics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand
… association between the fungal endophyte Epichloë festucae and perennial ryegrass, fungal growth is highly regulated and coordinated with that of the host. This implies there must be signalling between the fungus and its host to maintain this close association. Recent work has shown a …

Fungicide control of blind seed disease (Gloeotinia temulenta) without affecting AR37 endophyte in ryegrass seed crops : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of AgriScience in Seed Science and Technology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand
… the forage grass seed industry (Alderman, 2001). Epichloë fungal infection has a symbiotic association with grasses, providing beneficial traits to the plant host, having a crucial role in ensuring the persistence of grasses against biotic and abiotic threats (Mortimer and Di Menna, 1982; Popay …
