Temperature x genotype effects for perloline, crude protein and total water soluble carbohydrate levels in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea, Schreb.)

Creator:

Beuselinck, Paul Richard

Abstract:

Perloline levels have been associated with poor animal performance on tall fescue pastures. Animal performance is low when perloline levels are high. High perloline levels are reported during hot, dry weather and increased N fertilization. Tall fescue perloline levels appear to be affected by genetic and environmental differences. Positive associations...
