• A fungal endophyte of a palatable grass affects preference of large herbivores 

      Hernández Agramonte, Ignacio M.; Semmartin, María Gisela; Omacini, Marina; Durante, Martin; Gundel, Pedro Emilio; De Battista, Jose Pedro (2018-04)
      Temperate grasses frequently acquire resistance to herbivores through a symbiosis with epichloid fungi that produces alkaloids of variable deterrent effects. However, in those cases without apparent endophyte negative ...
    • Beneficial effects of Neotyphodium tembladerae and Neotyphodium pampeanum on a wild forage grass 

      Iannone, Leopoldo Javier; Pinget, Albertina Daniela; Nagabhyru, P.; Schardl, Christopher L.; De Battista, Jose Pedro (Wiley, 2012-09)
      Asexual, vertically transmitted fungal endophytes of the genus Neotyphodium are considered to enhance growth, stress resistance and competitiveness of agronomic grasses, but have been suggested to have neutral or deleterious ...
    • Claves para una correcta implantación de pasturas y verdeos en Entre Ríos 

      De Battista, Jose Pedro; Re, Alejo Esteban; Gorelik Zonis, Yanina Gisela (EEA Concepción del Uruguay, INTA, 2021-02)
      El éxito en la implantación de los cultivos forrajeros, tanto anuales como plurianuales, es de fundamental importancia para la sustentabilidad biológica y económica de los sistemas ganaderos de base pastoril.
    • Effect of epichloid endophytes and soil fertilization on arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization of a wild grass 

      Vignale, Maria Victoria; Iannone, Leopoldo Javier; Pinget, Albertina Daniela; De Battista, Jose Pedro; Novas, María Victoria (2016-08)
      Background and aims: Plants often establish multiple simultaneous symbiotic associations with different micro-organisms; however, the way in which each symbiont affects the other symbionts and the effects of these multiple ...
    • Endophytes of native grasses from South America: biodiversity and ecology 

      Iannone, Leopoldo Javier; Novas, María Victoria; Young, Carolyn A.; De Battista, Jose Pedro; Schardl, Christopher L. (Elsevier, 2012-06)
      We review and present preliminary results of studies on cool-season grass endophytes native to South America. These fungi have been studied only in Argentina, where they have been detected in 36 native grass species. The ...
