Description
Growth rates of the ·grass endophytes Acrenonium lolii Latch, Christensen and Samuels, A. coenoplrialiim Morgan-Jones lind Garns and Epichloe typhina' (Fries) Tulasne were measured on different solid media under various conditions and in liquid medium. A. coenophiallum and E. ryphina developed best vegetative growth at 25°C in the dark ori;pofato-dextrose-ilgar (PDA) and on minimalmedium (MM), respectively. A: lo/ii grew best at 2coenophialum and E. typhina produced 1.48 g and 6 g FW, respectively. Within 3 days the conductivit)'. reached constant values.· Osmolarity decreased with the increase of biomass. pH rose in cultures of A. lolii and E. typhina from 5 to 7.5 and from 5 to 6.9 respectively, but decreased in cultures of A. coenophialum from 5 to 4. I.
