Distribution of the endophytic fungus, Acremonium coenophialum, within tissues of infected tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) can be determined with tissue print-immunoblot (TPIB); however, the accuracy of this method in the determination of endophyte infestation levels of pastures and seed lots has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to compare TPIB to other methods used for endophyte detection. Seed lots of known endophyte infestation levels were tested with TPIB (...)
