Abstract Monoclonal antibodies were produced using intact mycelium of the fungus Acremonium coenopbialum as the immunogen. During the initial stages of characterization, the antibodies were found to react to A. coenophialum, A. loliae, Epichloe typhina , and also to cross‐react with some other fungi normally associated with tall fescue. Careful selection of the ELISA system in which the antibodies were used eliminated reactions to all but the two Acremonium spp. and E. typhina. Asa result it was possible to detect Acremonium spp. (presumably A. coenophialum ) sensitively and unambiguously in leaf tissue of tall fescue.
