Book Tall Fescue Toxicosis

Download or read book Tall Fescue Toxicosis written by Craig Arthur Roberts and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) is Missouri's most widely used forage crop. It is insect and nematode resistant, tolerates poor soil and climatic conditions well and has a long growing season. Unfortunately, tall fescue also has a downside. Most tall fescue in the state is infected with a fungal endophyte, Neotyphodium coenophialum (formerly called Acremonium coenophialum) that is toxic to animals. This publication offers a description of the endophyte as well as recommendations for its management.

Book Supplementation of Energy and Glucomannan to Alleviate Tall Fescue Toxicosis

Download or read book Supplementation of Energy and Glucomannan to Alleviate Tall Fescue Toxicosis written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An 84 d randomized block design using beef calves (238.8 " 20.1 kg) in each of two years was used to assess the efficacy of energy supplementation and glucomannan (MTB) to alleviate tall fescue toxicosis. Groups of four calves were randomly assigned to 24 endophyte-infected tall fescue pastures (1.23 " 0.06) ha. Pastures of calves were randomly assigned to treatments: unsupplemented (CON) with soybean hulls (SH) at 0.33% BW (DM basis; LO) supplemented with SH at 0.66% BW (DM basis; HI), LO plus 20 ·ghd−1 MTB-100® (LO-MTB), HI plus g·hd−1·d−1 MTB-100® (HI-MTB). Calves were weighed and serum collected every 21 days. Fecal grab samples were taken from d 55 to d 59 and analyzed for dry matter chromium and ergot alkaloid concentrations. Tympanic temperatures were taken from one calf for 3 days each week from d 59 to d 84. Data were analyzed using the MIXED procedure in SAS with contrasts of effects of MTB, level of SH supplementation (LEVEL), MTB x LEVEL interaction, and CON vs. supplemented (SUPP). Treatments differed in ADG (P

Book Physiological Effects of Tall Fescue Toxicity on Rat Visceral Organs and Glands

Download or read book Physiological Effects of Tall Fescue Toxicity on Rat Visceral Organs and Glands written by Hugh Callistus Hem-Lee and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agronomic importance of tall fescue grass throughout the livestock producing areas of the United States has risen steadily over the last 38 years. Unfortunately, a corresponding rise in livestock ailments has been documented when these animals feed on tall fescue. An asymptomic fungal endophyte is the disease causing agent in tall fescue. This laboratory study was done in an attempt to disclose physiological relationships and possible biochemical links that may be involved in fescue toxicosis.

Book Management Strategies for Sustainable Cattle Production in Southern Pastures

Download or read book Management Strategies for Sustainable Cattle Production in Southern Pastures written by Monte Rouquette, Jr. and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Management Strategies for Sustainable Cattle Production in Southern Pastures is a practical resource for scientists, students, and stakeholders who want to understand the relationships between soil-plant interactions and pasture management strategies, and the resultant performance of cow-calf and stocker cattle. This book illustrates the importance of matching cattle breed types and plant hardiness zones to optimize cattle production from forages and pastures. It explains the biologic and economic implications of grazing management decisions made to improve sustainability of pastures and cattle production while being compliant with present and future environmental concerns and cattle welfare programs. Documents the effects of cattle grazing on greenhouse gas emissions and carbon footprints Discusses strategies to enhance soil fertility, soil health, and nutrient cycling in pastures Provides information on the use of stocking rates, stocking strategies and grazing systems to optimize cow-calf production of weaned calves and stockers. Presents innovations in cattle supplementation and watering systems to minimize negative impacts on water and soil health Includes methods for weed control to maintain pasture condition and ecosystem stability Describes management strategies to integrate cattle operations with wildlife sustainability

Book Managing Fescue Toxicosis Through Forage Canopy  Limestone Application and Novel Endophytes

Download or read book Managing Fescue Toxicosis Through Forage Canopy Limestone Application and Novel Endophytes written by Sarah Lynn Kenyon and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh.] infected with the endophytic fungus Epichloë coenophiala [(Morgan-Jones [AND] W. Gams) C.W. Bacon & Schardl, comb. nov.] produces ergovaline and other alkaloids responsible for fescue toxicosis, a livestock disorder. Cultivars re-infected with endophytes that do not produce toxic ergot alkaloids, referred to as "novel endophytes," have been used to alleviate the symptoms of fescue toxicosis. This research includes a series of experiments with the overall objective of identifying management practices that reduce fescue toxicosis in order to provide recommendations to Missouri farmers. The fist experiment examined the distribution of ergovaline and total ergot alkaloids throughout the vegetative canopy of tall fescue, and concluded that toxin concentrations are highest in the bottom 5 cm of the plant. The second experiment documented that applying limestone decreased ergovaline concentrations by at least 20 [mu]g kg−1 dry matter. The third experiment evaluated cattle preference among novel endophyte-infected tall fescue cultivars. This experiment concluded that one cultivar, 'BarOptima,' was grazed first and most frequently.
