Festuca pratensis, the meadow fescue, ( syn.

As a result, plant taxonomists have moved several species, including the forage grasses tall fescue and meadow fescue, from the genus Festuca into the genus Lolium.

The main grasses found are Yorkshire Fog, Meadow Fescue, Crested Dog's-tail and Meadow Foxtail.

Species in the meadow include cowslips, ragged-robin, great burnet, common spotted orchid, red fescue, meadow fescue, crested dog's-tail, sweet vernalgrass, sedges and meadowsweet, the dominant plant.

Festuca pratensis, meadow fescue) and tall fescue infected by N. uncinatum and N. coenophialum (see Fig. 3), respectively, exhibit variable concentrations in grass tissues.

Endophyte-free grasses do not produce lolines, and, as shown for the closely related endophyte commonly occurring in meadow fescue, Neotyphodium uncinatum, the endophyte can produce lolines in axenic laboratory culture.
