Influence of soil pH, phosphorus and sulphur on the frequency of rhizobia genotypes found in four pasture legume species grown in an acid high country soil
(Lincoln University, 2014)
South Island hill and high country soils typically have deficiencies of nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur and molybdenum. The soils often have low pH and as such, high levels of exchangeable aluminium and manganese, causing ...
The effect of Neotyphodium grass endophyte on alkaloid profiles, dry matter production and botanical composition of perennial ryegrass pastures
(Lincoln University, 2014)
This study involved three key experiments to examined the effect of Nil endophtye and novel endophyte strains (AR1, AR37, Wild-Type (WT) and NEA2) of perennial ryegrass on dry-matter (DM) production, botanical compositon, ...
A tale of two grass species: Temperature affects the symbiosis of a mutualistic Epichloë endophyte in both tall fescue and perennial ryegrass
(Frontiers Media SA, 2020-05-08)
Many cool-season grasses form permanent, mutualistic symbioses with asexual Epichloë endophytes. These fungal symbionts often perform a protective role within the association as many strains produce secondary metabolites ...
