Beschreibungen

Divided into logical easy-to-use sections, <i>Neotyphodium in Cool-Season Grasses</i> is an up-to-date anthology of the latest knowledge on the genus <i>Neotyphodium.</i> This thorough text covers the molecular biology of <i>Neotyphodium</i> endophytes and their effects on grass hosts, invertebrate and vertebrate herbivores, and the plant communities in which they interact. The expert editors also include information on the commercial uses of endophytes in livestock and turf industries.<br /> <p>Researchers and teachers in grass research, extension, agronomy, and animal toxicology, and university libraries with courses in these subjects should not be without this important text.</p>
