| leukoencephalomalacia in a white-tailed deer from north carolina. | leukoencephalomalacia similar to equine leukoencephalomalacia occurred in a white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) from north carolina. the deer was recumbent and stuporous when presented for examination. it was believed that the disease resulted from ingestion of moldy field corn, infected with fusarium moniliforme. | 1989 | 2761012 |
| pathogen frequency in an age-structured population of plantago lanceolata. | life-history traits can play important roles in determining the course of ecological species interactions. we explored the consequences of host age on a host-pathogen interaction by quantifying pathogen frequency in an age-structured host population. our project was motivated by an interest in whether the demographic structure of a host population has consequences for species interactions. in 2 successive years, we planted large cohorts of the perennial herb plantago lanceolata in its natural en ... | 2003 | 12687469 |
| a protective endophyte of maize: acremonium zeae antibiotics inhibitory to aspergillus flavus and fusarium verticillioides. | the maize endophyte acremonium zeae is antagonistic to kernel rotting and mycotoxin producing fungi aspergillus flavus and fusarium verticillioides in cultural tests for antagonism, and interferes with a. flavus infection and aflatoxin contamination of preharvest maize kernels. chemical studies of an organic extract from maize kernel fermentations of acremonium zeae (nrrl 13540), which displayed significant antifungal activity against aspergillus flavus and f. verticillioides, revealed that the ... | 2005 | 16018316 |
